Abstract:
Many catalytic applications use conventional heating to increase the temperature to allow the desired reaction. A novel methodology is presented for the preparation of magnetic zeolite-based catalysts, allowing more efficient radiofrequency heating. These nanoreactors are tested in the isomerisation of citronellal with successful results and without any apparent deactivation.
