4.6 and 12.1 nm were prepared by the ethylene reduction method and used to study the effect of Pt particle size on coking rate and nature of coke formed.Meanwhile
a PtSn/Al2O3 catalyst was also prepared by the impregnation method in order to elucidate the effect of Sn addition on coking properties of Pt catalyst.The catalysts were characterized by H2 chemisorption
TEM
thermogravimetric analysis
elemental analysis
infrared spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy
respectively.The experimental results showed that coking rate on Pt metal decreased with increasing size of Pt particle.The coke formed on smaller Pt particles was of higher degree of graphitization and lower content of hydrogen.Moreover
for PtSn/Al2O3 catalyst
its coking rate on Pt metal was higher than that of Pt/Al2O3 catalyst
and the coke formed was also of higher graphitization. Using coke formation mechanism obtained
a conceptual design of catalyst with high performance for propane dehydrogenation was then tentatively proposed.
