Abstract

Gas adsorption studies were carried out for pore analysis of ZSM-5 catalysts used in n-heptane aromatization, to understand the deactivation behavior of zeolite channels. Results suggested that the alumina binder protected the zeolite catalyst by accommodating most of the coke. Analysis of the zeolitic part of the pores indicated that the straight channels are mainly blocked at pore opening and provided an evidence for molecular traffic control mechanism (MTC).
