✅ Product Description
Iridium on Carbon (Ir/C) is a highly active heterogeneous catalyst composed of iridium complexes finely dispersed on activated carbon. It offers excellent catalytic performance in hydrogenation, oxidation, and coupling reactions. With a high surface area of 100–130 m²/g and controlled bulk density, this catalyst ensures optimal dispersion of active sites and efficient mass transfer.
The product typically appears as black powder or granules, with particle sizes ranging from 1.0 to 4.0 mm, making it easy to handle and recover in both batch and continuous reaction systems. Due to iridium's outstanding catalytic stability and resistance to deactivation, Ir/C is widely used in fine chemical synthesis, pharmaceutical intermediates, and specialty material production.
