An investigation is made of the influence of hydrogen on the dehydrogenation of isopropyl alcohol on palladium foil. It is shown that the degree of isopropanol conversion to acetone is an extreme function of the quantity of hydrogen in the reaction zone. We establish that at the experimental temperature absorption of hydrogen by the palladium foil is observed. An almost periodic change in the degree of isopropyl alcohol conversion is observed, which may be related to changes of hydrogen concentration at the surface and in the catalyst membrane layer near to the surface.
