Effect of fluorination of alumina support on activity of platinum catalysts for complete oxidation of benzene

Catalysis Letters Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

Platinum supported on fluorinated alumina is more active for the total oxidation of benzene than is the catalyst with the same Pt loading supported on hydrophilic unfluorinated alumina. The Pt-F/alumina catalyst contains well-dispersed small Pt particles, in contrast to Pt/alumina. The high dispersion is a consequence of a strong metal-support interaction.
