The application relates to the technical field of high
ignition point insulating oil, and particularly discloses a
metal-supported catalyst and application of the
metal-supported catalyst in high
ignition point insulating oil. The
metal-supported catalyst comprises a carrier, an active metal supported on the carrier and a composite metal
oxide mesoporous layer, the carrier is a metal
oxide and is at least one selected from MoO2, Al2O3, ZrO2, MgO, TiO2 and SnO2; the active metal is a
transition metal and is at least one selected from Fe, Co, Cu, Ni, Ti, Zr, Mn, V and Zn; and raw materials of the composite metal
oxide mesoporous layer comprise SiO2, ZrO2 and a carbon precursor. The metal-supported catalyst can be used for synthesizing ester insulating oil, can produce high-efficiency
catalysis on synthesis of the ester insulating oil with a small amount, has high cycle stability and can keep excellent
catalytic efficiency after multiple cycles.
