More than a support: the unique role of Nb₂O₅ in supported metal catalysts for lignin hydrodeoxygenation

Abstract

How does Nb 2 O 5 in supported catalysts affect the hydrodeoxygenation of lignin? This article discusses the effects of Nb 2 O 5 in detail, including the promotion of C–O bond cleavage, the improvement of water resistance and the enhancement of durability.
