【 摘 要 】

This article presents experimental data on the techniques used for the characterization of Pd-Al2O3 supported on activated biochar (2Pd-5Al/ABC) catalyst. The reported data is collected as a part of the research on the 2Pd-5Al/ABC catalyst used for lignin hydrogenolysis [1]. The data on X-ray powder diffraction, ammonia-temperature programmed desorption, pyridine diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy, and high-resolution scanning electron microscopy of various catalysts are valuable to study the changes in surface morphology and acidity upon metal loading. The data from thermogravimetric analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy are also provided to understand the thermal stability, ionic state of various metals and elemental composition of the catalyst, respectively. The data provided can be used for developing novel catalysts from renewable biochar, and the characterization of noble metal-metal oxide loaded catalysts can aid researchers to design composite catalytic materials for various applications.
