Abstract: The catalytic properties of Inerton-supported nickel nanoparticles in benzene hydrogenation have been studied; rate constants of the reaction at different temperatures have been calculated. Activation energy and conversion have been determined, and the effect of size of nickel nanoparticles on their catalytic properties in benzene hydrogenation has been discussed.
