Abstract

Abstract We reported here the preparation, characterization, and catalytic ability of a Fe 3 O 4 –supported palladium–carbon (Fe 3 O 4 –Pd–C) as an efficient catalyst in disproportionation of gum rosin. The magnetic nanocatalyst was prepared by a simple method and was characterized by FTIR, XRD, TEM, N 2 adsorption–desorption, VSM, and atomic absorption analysis. The prepared catalyst displayed excellent activity in disproportionation of gum rosin. The magnetic Fe 3 O 4 –Pd–C catalyst was successfully recycled three times with keeping its catalytic performance. The simplicity of the nanocatalyst production method and simple separation and recyclability, on the other hand, make possible the industrial production and application of the catalyst.
