US patents found in class 502 subclass 301 on Raney nickel catalysts.

1563587 NiSi alloy, Murray Raney inventor

1628190 NiAl and NiAlSi alloys, catalyst loses activiy when air dried, Murray Raney inventor

1915473 NiAl, Ni treated with H2 Murray Raney inventor

2139602 Recovering Ni, dissolve in H2SO4: Ni sulfate + NaOH --> Ni hydrate;
Ni hydrate + H2 --> Ni; Murray Raney inventor

2461396 Ni + H2 --> believed to contain NiH or NiH2; heat NiH to produce Ni; store under water or oil; Murray Raney inventor

2865865 Ni in ROH (C16 - C26) suspension stabilized

2977327 Prior art Sabatier 1895 produces Ni from Ni sulfate/chloride/nitrate; Murray Raney inventor
