Provided is a hydrogenation catalyst solution comprising a solid catalyst precursor and an activator mixed in a solvent solution where propylene or another alpha-olefin or combination thereof is then added to this solution to prevent the formation of solids and stabilize the solution. The hydrogenation catalyst solution can then be combined with a polymerization catalyst such as Ziegler-Natta catalyst in a polymerization reactor so as to remove excess hydrogen from the reactor during a polymerization process. Hydrogen is eliminated by converting a portion of the olefins (propylene and ethylene) present into alkanes (propane and ethane).

A method of forming a catalyst is provided herein. The method comprises combining a binder, a support, and an active metal to form a slurry composition. The method further comprises applying the slurry composition using an additive manufacturing process to form a green part. The method further comprises exposing the green part to heat at a temperature of from about 10° C. to about 150° C. to form the hardened part. The method further comprises applying a ceramic-based coating material to the hardened part to form the catalyst.
