CATALYTIC ACTIVITIES AND ACID STRENGTHS OF NiO-ZrO2 CATALYSTS MODIFIED WITH ACIDS
A series of NiO-ZrO2 catalysts were prepared by coprecipitation from the mixed aqueous solution of nickel choride-zirconium oxychloride, and were modified with acids, H2SO4, H3PO4 and H3BO3. It was found that the NiO-ZrO2 catalyst containing 25 mole percent of nickel oxide and evacuated at 400℃ for 1.5 hr showed maximum catalytic activities for 1-butene isomerization and ethylene dimerization. The catalytic activities for both isomerization and dimerization were correlated with the acid strengths of the catalysts. The isomerization activity of 1-butene ran parallel with the dimerization activity of ethylene, although the isomerization took place on relatively weak acid sites as compared with the dimerization.
