Abstract

Acid properties and catalytic activity of high-silica zeolites of ZSM–5 type modified with platinum and gallium were studied in the process of joint conversion of butane and hexane. It was demonstrated that the introduction of modifying metals (Ga, Pt) at the stage of hydrothermal synthesis changes the acid and catalytic properties of initial zeolite. The highest efficiency in the process of aromatization of alkanes under study is exhibited by Ga–НZSM–5. With all samples (Н–ZSM–5, Ga–НZSM–5, Pt–НZSM–5), the effect of the joint transformation of butane and hexane was not discovered.
