In-situ activation of NiMo catalyst based on support surface-bound thiols: A green approach to catalyst sulfidation and improved activity

The sulfidation of NiMo catalyst by thermal decomposition of support surface-bound thiols to generate stoichiometric amount of H2S has proved to be a clean and remarkable approach for catalyst activation. The role of loading of thiol groups on the formation and dispersion of MoS2 active phase on the...
