Abstract
The acidity of sulfated alumina catalysts was studied by analyzing DTG and heat of Ar adsorption together with the isomerization of pentane. The initial acid sites were Bronsted-type, and converted into Lewis-type upon increasing the pretreatment temperature. The heat of Ar adsorption of the most active sulfated alumina was 18.9 kJ mol−1, this value being a little smaller than that of sulfated zirconia (23.6 kJ mol−1).
