Abstract

The stability of a series of sulfated zirconia catalysts, promoted with up to 2 wt% iron or manganese, in their calcined state was investigated. Phase composition, nature of surface sulfate species, degree of hydroxylation, and butane isomerization activity changed during aging over months in various atmospheres and during milling. The metastability of small oxide particles is discussed, including literature data on alumina, titania and other oxides. Catalytically active fractions of a material easily transition into more stable, less active forms.
