Hydroisomerization of n-hexane over Pt-Ni/HBEA using catalysts prepared by different methods
Bimetallic catalysts Pt-Ni/HBEA prepared by different methods, were studied in the reaction of n-hexane hydroisomerization and compared with Pt and Ni/HBEA. The results showed that the highest conversion and selectivity were obtained for the bimetallic catalysts, prepared by ion exchange with simultaneous addition of Pt and Ni, which reveals a synergistic effect between the two metals.
