Summary
Effect of KCl on the structure and the catalytic properties of CuCl2/γ-Al2O3 catalyst for ethane oxychlorination has been studied by means of solubility test, UV-vis spectroscopy, XRD, TPR, TEM and catalytic reaction. Addition of KCl decreases the interaction between active species CuCl2 and γ-Al2O3 and increases the catalytic properties by accelerating the Cu(II) → Cu(I) reduction step.
