Abstract

Tin-alumina supports were prepared by cogelation of aluminum tri-sec-butoxide and tetrabutyltin or tin tetrachloride. Aqueous or acetone platinum solutions were used for impregnation. The results show that the specific surface area and the acidity of the catalysts were only slightly modified by the metal precursors used. On cyclohexane dehydrogenation and n-hexane conversion, high selectivity to olefins and low cracking products were detected.
