Abstract
Ni/SAPO-11 catalysts with highly dispersed Ni (TA-Ni/SA-11) were prepared using tartaric acid as a dispersant. The effect of the tartaric acid content on the physiochemical properties of the TA-Ni/SA-11 catalysts and their n-heptane hydroisomerization performance were investigated. TA-Ni/SA-11 exhibits smaller Ni particles and more Ni active sites in comparison to conventional Ni/SAPO-11 prepared via the impregnation method due to the interaction between tartaric acid and Ni2+. As the molar ratio of tartaric acid and Ni2+ (nTA/nNi) increases, the number of Ni active sites in TA-Ni/SA-11 rises, while the surface area and relative crystallinity decrease because of the dealumination of SAPO-11. When nTA/nNi is 0.75, 0.75TA-Ni/SA-11 presents the highest n-heptane conversion of 82.4% and isomer selectivity of 90.5%, as well as the lowest cracking selectivity of 9.0% at 380 °C, 1.5 MPa, 2 h− 1, and a volume ratio of H2 to n-heptane of 400 among these catalysts.
期刊介绍:
Catalysis Letters aim is the rapid publication of outstanding and high-impact original research articles in catalysis. The scope of the journal covers a broad range of topics in all fields of both applied and theoretical catalysis, including heterogeneous, homogeneous and biocatalysis.
The high-quality original research articles published in Catalysis Letters are subject to rigorous peer review. Accepted papers are published online first and subsequently in print issues. All contributions must include a graphical abstract. Manuscripts should be written in English and the responsibility lies with the authors to ensure that they are grammatically and linguistically correct. Authors for whom English is not the working language are encouraged to consider using a professional language-editing service before submitting their manuscripts.
