Evonik’s Noblyst® F catalysts enhance flow chemistry efficiency, offering customizable, high-performance precious metal solutions for pharma, fine chemicals, and continuous processing.
Evonik, a global pioneer in specialty chemicals and catalyst innovation, has introduced its latest breakthrough — the Noblyst® F catalyst portfolio, specifically engineered for flow chemistry applications. This new series of catalysts represents a major advancement in catalytic process technology, aiming to enhance operational efficiency, consistency, and performance across industries such as pharmaceuticals, fine chemicals, and specialty materials.
The Noblyst® F series comprises a range of precious metal catalysts supported on carbon granules, available in two different particle sizes to suit diverse flow application needs. These catalysts are designed to deliver exceptional performance in continuous flow systems, enabling smoother reaction kinetics and improved product yields. Evonik provides the catalysts as standalone grades, but for greater convenience and flexibility, customers can also opt for a dedicated sample kit. This kit allows users to evaluate different grades and select the most effective catalyst for their process requirements. To further assist users, Evonik includes a comprehensive application table that helps identify the ideal catalyst composition and particle size for various reaction types.
Evonik’s innovation does not stop at the current product line. The company is already working on expanding the Noblyst® F portfolio to include a broader variety of support materials, particle shapes, and size configurations. This development aligns with Evonik’s long-term vision of delivering tailored catalytic solutions that meet the evolving needs of industries transitioning toward continuous processing technologies.
Commenting on the launch, Max Preisenberger, Head of Catalysts at Evonik, expressed enthusiasm about the new offering:
“We’re excited to bring the Noblyst® F series to our customers. More companies in the pharma and fine chemical sectors are shifting toward continuous flow processing. This new product line reflects our commitment to providing innovative, high-performance solutions that align with this technological transformation.”
With the growing adoption of flow chemistry, industries are increasingly seeking catalysts that combine high selectivity, strong activity, and robust stability under continuous operating conditions. Evonik’s Noblyst® F catalysts have been optimized precisely for these demands. Their composition ensures efficient mass transfer, minimal pressure drop, and consistent catalytic activity throughout long reaction cycles, contributing to improved scalability and reduced waste.
Drawing on its decades of expertise in catalysis, Evonik continues to bridge the gap between laboratory innovation and industrial application. The launch of Noblyst® F reinforces the company’s position as a reliable partner in process intensification, enabling customers to enhance productivity, sustainability, and process control in flow-based manufacturing systems.
