Abstract
The effect of the degree of platinum crystallite size on the reaction rate, selectivity and activation energy of ethane and propane hydrogenolysis has been studied in the range of platinum crystallite size of 1.7–4.0 nm. In the same range of Pt crystallite size, the activation energy of both processes shows a clear minimum. The decrease in Pt crystallite size bellow 3.0 nm brings about rapid changes in the selectivity of propane hydrogenolysis.
