Abstract
The specific activity of Re/γ-alumina catalysts (10.4 and 1.04 wt% Re) preheated in hydrogen at 550–800°C for benzene hydrogenation and hydrogenolysis at 80–300°C has been found to not change or to increase with increasing pretreatment temperature, respectively. The results are discussed in relation to the metal dispersion.
