Abstract

We report the propane dehydrogenation behavior of catalysts prepared using wet impregnation method that immobilize Pt nano cluster on the alumina surface. The immobilization of the metal particles and their nano size dimensions were demonstrated by transmission electron microscopy. Selectivity to propylene for these catalysts is comparable to those obtained over industrial Pt catalysts, yet the resistance to deactivation by carbon poisoning is much greater for our catalysts. The deactivation behavior is more typical of traditionally prepared PtSn catalysts on γ-alumina than of catalysts supported onθ-alumina.
