Abstract
To study how calcination temperature influences the structural properties and catalytic performance of a novel amorphous NiP/Hβ catalyst, amorphous NiP/Hβ catalysts calcined at different temperatures were prepared for n-hexane isomerization. The optimum calcination temperature was determined, and the effect of calcination temperature on the structural properties of the catalysts was investigated using different characterization methods, such as XRD, TPD and so on. It was found that the optimum calcination temperature was 200 °C. Simultaneously, the amorphous NiP/Hβ catalyst showed good application potential as a non-noble metal catalyst. Calcination temperatures from 100 to 400 °C had almost no effect on pore properties. Meanwhile, the acid properties of the amorphous NiP/Hβ catalyst were affected very little by calcination temperature. By increasing calcination temperature, the dispersion state of amorphous NiP became worse at 300 °C, and then the structure of NiP changed from an amorphous structure into a crystalline structure at 400 °C. In addition, the catalyst became more difficult to reduce with the increase in calcination temperature. Combined with the results of n-hexane isomerization catalyzed by different samples, the mechanism by which calcination temperature affects n-hexane isomerization over catalyst was revealed. It was shown that for the amorphous NiP/Hβ catalyst, calcination temperature influences the catalytic performance mainly by affecting the dispersion degree and structure of active components.
