The phase composition and texture of alumino-chrome catalysts prepared by simultaneous precipitation

Summary

  1. 1.

    Simultaneous precipitation by ammonia at a final pH of 6.4– 7.6 of alumina-chrome catalysts containing up to 25% chromium-III oxide, gives products consisting of a solid solution of their components with a defective spinel structure (γ -phase). For higher chromia concentrations there arises a corundum (rhombohedral) phase consisting of a solid solution of alumina in the chromium oxide.

  2. 2.

    Neitherγ-Cr2O3 norη -Cr2O3 is observed by phase analysis of the catalysts.

  3. 3.

    The effect of composition and temperature of ignition on the texture of the alumino-chrome catalysts has been studied.

  4. 4.

    According to data on the texture of binary catalysts (alumina with chromium-III oxide, nickel oxide, ferric oxide and zirconium-IV oxide), it has been found that the alumina-chromium-III oxide system possesses the greatest thermal stability.

  5. 5.

    It has been shown that there is considerable effect of precipitation pH on the texture of alumino-chrome catalysts.
