COMPARISON OF HOPCALITE AND A SUPPORTED HOPCALITE FOR APPLICABILITY TO SUBMARINE USE.

Abstract

In conjunction with a study on criteria for the selection of oxidation catalysts for use in air purification in nuclear submarines, several catalysts have been investigated with regard to suitable physical properties and catalytic activity. In this report the presently used Hopcalite catalyst is compared with a supported Hopcalite catalyst with an alumina base. It was found that the present Hopcalite was clearly superior in almost all aspects of catalytic activity to the supported Hopcalite. (Author)
