Abstract
EXAFS has been used to follow in situ the structural evolution of sulf ided Pt/Al2O3-Cl and PtRe/Al2O3-Cl catalysts during the hydrocarbon re action (T = 500 degrees C, P(H-2) = 8 bars H-2 : n-C7H16 = 1:1 and T=3 00 degrees C, P(H-2) = 3 bars, H-2 : n-C7H16 = 1:1). The hydrocarbon c onversion was monitored, via on line analysis, with a gas chromatograp h. For the monometallic, we observe a sintering of the metal particles . In the case of sulfided PtRe/Al2O3-Cl catalysts no sintering of the metallic particles was observed.
