Abstract
It has been shown that to increase the octane rating of gasoline, it is necessary employing acid catalysts in the olefin oligomerization reaction; in this way, this work presents the preparation of membrane sulfated zirconia–titania as acid catalyst; the membrane was prepared using the dip-coating method. The molar Zr/Ti ratio was 1; the samples were characterized by XRD, spectroscopy IR, and Raman. The analysis of X-ray diffraction shows good crystallinity at temperatures above 873 K. The catalytic performance of these materials was evaluated in the oligomerization of isobutene showing good activity and selectivity for the production of C8 at 383 K and WHSV = 53 h−1; the results show a good conversion for oligomerization of olefins.
