Influence of the Generation of Mesopores on the Hydroisomerization Activity and Selectivity of n-Hexane over Pt/Mordenite

Abstract: The activity and selectivity of hydroisomerization of n-hexane over Pt/mordenite is strongly influenced by acid leaching. The activity increases and the selectivity changes to favor primary products. Leaching selectively modifies the mordenite structure, making more sites accessible for reaction and facilitating desorption of reaction products. It is argued that the activity of untreated mordenite is limited by mass transfer effects. These effects largely vanish after modification of the zeolite structure by g… Show more

“…Likely, the dealumination should lead to side pockets enlargement to contain the antibiotic heterocycle, and this can occur assuming a merging of vicinal pockets with part of the main channel [1]. The accessibility of bulky molecules as iso-propylamine or tert-butyl pyridine to mordenite side pockets has been observed after dealumination of mordenite [44,45].…”

“…Zeolites with mesoporous structure have a beneficial effect in reactions such as slurry-phase reactions where the diffusion is much slower than for gas-phase reactions. Slurry-phase catalytic cracking and isomerization of n-hexadecane exhibits pronounced activity enhancement using mesoporous zeolite as catalyst than the conventional zeolite [417,434]. Also, an enhancement of cumene cracking was obtained using mesopororous ZSM-5 [435].…”

“…In top-down approaches, mesopores are introduced after the zeolite has been synthesized, and it is usually achieved by extracting either Al or Si atoms from the zeolite framework. Common methods for demetallation include steaming [33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40], acid-leaching [30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46] and base treatment [47,48]. In bottom-up approaches, the mesopores are introduced in the framework during the synthesis.…”
