Synthesis of a Ceramic Acid of Tungstated Alumina more Active than Silica-alumina for Decompositions of Cumene, Ethylbenzene, and Toluene

Catalysis Letters Aims and scope Submit manuscript

A ceramics acid, calcined at temperatures above 1000 °C, was obtained by impregnating aluminum hydroxide with aqueous ammonium metatungstate followed by calcining in air at 1000–1200 °C (1–5 wt% W); its acidity and catalytic activity for decompositions of toluene, ethylbenzene, and cumene are higher than those of silica-alumina.
