Dual function catalysts. Reforming represented a significant advance in the utilization of the dual-function catalysts, eg. reforming with platinum catalysts is today the second largest industrial catalytic application(Petroleum). Another example of dual functionality is the conversion of C6minus cycloparaffins(cyclohexane and methylcyclopentane) over single-and dual-function catalysts for converting methylcyclopentane to benzene. For certain reactions, dual-function catalysts can accomplish more than passing the reactants through two reactors in sequence, each filled with a different single-function catalyst. 1, record 2, English, - dual%2Dfunction%20catalyst
