Abstract
The influence of the distribution of catalyst activity on the resistan ce against poisoning is studied. For a constant amount of catalyst the location and width of the active zone is analyzed experimentally. Sev eral methods for pellet preparation are described. The results demonst rate that for a model experimental system the optimal distribution is a thin active layer inside the pellet. This coincides with our previou s theoretical results which are summarized in this paper.
