Aluminum Oxide Produced with the Use of Activated Aluminum as Support for Platinum Catalysts

Аннотация

Thermal treatment of a product formed in the interaction of activated aluminum with water yielded alumina having a specific surface area of 250 m² g^–1, uniform pore size distribution, and average pore size of 7.8 nm. A platinum catalyst on its basis exhibited high activity and stability in propane conversion at a selectivity of propylene formation higher than 90% and suppressed reaction of hydrogenolysis of C–C bonds.
