Abstract

The initial rate of carbon formation during cyclopentane reaction has been studied on different Pt/Al2O3 catalysts of varying metal dispersity. It has been shown that coke deposition on the metal is a structure sensitive reaction which is preferably produced on large metallic particles. On the other hand, coke deposition on the whole catalyst is relevant to cyclopentadiene formation and is a structure insensitive reaction since the initial rate of coke deposition on the whole catalyst is proportional to the metallic surface area.

Abstract

Исследована начальная скорость образования угля в ходе реакции циклопентана на катализаторах Pt/Al2O3 с различной дисперсией металла. Показано, что высаждение кокса на металле является реакцией, чувствительной к структуре и протекающей предпочтительно на больших металлических частицах. С другой стороны, отложение углерода на всем катализаторе влияет на образование циклопентадиена и тем самым является реакцией, нечувствительной к структуре, т.к. начальная скорость отложения нагара на всем катализаторе прорциональна поверхности металла.
