Abstract

Catalysts based on chromium supported by sulphated and unsulphated zirconia have been synthesised, in one step, by sol–gel method and dried in hypercritical solvent conditions. Comparative study of their catalytic properties shows that dispersed Cr3+ seems to be the active species in the n-hexane aromatisation reaction. However, the acidity generated by sulphate groups acts as coke eliminator of the layers deposed on the surface mainly when catalyst is calcined at high temperature.
