Abstract

The hydroisomerization of n-hexane has been investigated at atmospheric pressure in the temperature range 523^623 K over Pt-H-ETS-10 containing different amounts of Pt. The influence of Pt content and reaction parameters on the isomerization effi- ciency is reported. The optimum Pt content for the reaction was found to be around 0.3%Pt. The moderate acidity of the molecular sieve (H-form) results in high selectivities for isomerization. The studies suggest that n-hexane transformation over Pt-H-ETS-10 proceeds through a bifunctional route.
