The modified copper-based catalyst achieved acetylene conversion of 94% and acetaldehyde selectivity of 78% after 8 h of reaction and maintained high levels of conversion, selectivity, and stability over 15 h of continuous reaction. The experimental results demonstrate that the DBD plasma-modified catalyst exhibits a promotional effect on the acetylene hydration reaction compared to the high-temperature calcined catalyst. X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photo­electron spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TG), transmission electron microscopy,and inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry analyses indicate that compared to the conventionally high-temperature calcined catalyst, DBD plasma modification of catalyst enhances anti-reduction capability of the active copper species, effectively suppresses copper loss and carbon deposits, due to the strong interaction between the Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> and Cu species, thereby significantly improving catalytic performance.</p>","PeriodicalId":38,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry","volume":"29 25","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2026-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148862513","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
