Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The degree of reduction of nickel on RSG-6Ts cracking catalyst is significantly lower than on SiO2, and the dispersion of the metal on RSG-6Ts is significantly higher, due to the reaction of nickel with the aluminosilicate matrix.

  2. 2.

    The antimony is more uniformly distributed on the surface than the nickel, forming a monomolecular layer or small islets of Sb2O5. No reduction of antimony was detected on brief treatment in H2 at 550°C.

  3. 3.

    The increase in the “metal stability” of the catalysts in the presence of antimony is due to a decrease in the dispersion of Ni0 and perhaps by modification if its properties caused by the presence of a monolayer of antimony oxide on the Ni/SiO2-Al2O3 interface.
