A catalyst including a modified silica support having a titanium modifier metal, and a catalytic metal on the modified silica support. A proportion of the modifier metal is present in the form of mononuclear titanium moieties or is derived from a mononuclear titanium cation source at the commencement of modification. The invention also discloses a corresponding modified silica support, a method of producing the catalyst or the modified silica support, and a process for preparing an ethylenically unsaturated acid or ester in the presence of the catalyst.

Catalyst and a process for the production of ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acids or esters

Catalyst and a process for the production of ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acids or ester

A catalyst has a modified silica support and comprises a modifier metal, zirconium and/or hafnium, and a catalytic metal on the modified support. The catalyst has at least a proportion, typically, at least 25%, of modifier metal present in moieties having a total of up to 2 modifier metal atoms. The moieties may be derived from a monomeric and/or dimeric cation source. A method of production:

The present invention relates to catalysts, more particularly to a cobalt-containing catalyst composition. The present invention further relates to a process for preparing a cobalt-containing catalyst precursor, a process for preparing a cobalt-containing catalyst, and a hydrocarbon synthesis process wherein such a catalyst is used. According to a first aspect of the invention, there is provided a cobalt-containing catalyst composition comprising cobalt and/or a cobalt compound supported on and/or in a catalyst support; the catalyst composition also including a titanium compound on and/or in the catalyst support, and a manganese compound on and/or in the catalyst support.
