its structure and acidity can significantly influence the catalytic activity. Through two combinational treatments of acid-calcination and acid-steaming
the structure and acidity of β-zeolite were tuned. After treatment
the modified β-zeolites was characterized by N2 adsorption and desorption
X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS)
and infrared spectra (IR). The activity for catalytic cracking of n-octane at 500℃ was evaluated. It showed that BET specific area and Lewis acid sites (L1445 and L1455) were tuned by different treatments. The catalyst by acid-calcination treatment exhibited better activity for catalytic cracking of n-octane than acid-steaming treatment. The higher BET surface area and the Lewis acid sites account for the higher catalytic cracking activity of the catalyst by acid-calcination treatment. The concentrations of Brønsted acid and two types of Lewis acid as well as textural properties were tuned
which lead to the difference in catalytic activity between the original and final β-zeolites.
