Abstract
The Pt-bearing H3PW12O40 (PW) catalysts, promoted by Cr or La, supported on dealuminated USY zeolite were prepared and their catalytic activities were evaluated in the hydroisomerization of n-heptane with an atmospheric fixed-bed reactor. The catalysts were characterized by XRD, BET, IR and H2-chemisorption. The results showed that the dealuminated USY support retained the Y zeolite structure and the PW well kept its Keggin structure in the supported PW catalysts and the doping of Cr or La into the catalysts enhanced the dispersion of Pt on the catalyst surface. The Pt-bearing PW catalysts doped with Cr or La, especially Cr, exhibited much higher catalytic activity and selectivity than the catalysts without dopants. Both the conversion and selectivity were discussed in relation with physicochemical properties of catalysts.
