Abstract

Catalytically-active metallic glasses containing at least one element from a subgroup of the periodic system and at least one element from a main group of the periodic system. Process for the production of catalytically-active metallic glasses where the metallic glass is produced from at least one element from a subgroup of the periodic system and at least from one element from a main group of the periodic system. The metallic glasses are activated by self-activation or by an oxidative and/or reductive treatment. The catalytically-active metallic glasses can be used as hydrogenation, oxidation or isomerization catalysts.
