    Abstract

    Ultrasound has been used to activate 3 μm Ni powder as a hydrogenation catalyst to give 65% conversion of oct-1-ene to octane. The effect on submicrometer Ni powders was less marked, and the activity of Raney Ni was reduced. Insonation of a Pd/C catalyst increased both the adsorptive uptake of hydrogen and hydrogenation rates.
