Oo. Parenago et al., ACIDITY OF THE EXTERNAL SURFACE OF MODIFIED PENTASIL CATALYSTS AND ITS RESISTANCE TO MECHANICAL TREATMENT, Pure and applied chemistry, 65(10), 1993, pp. 2205-2208
The influence of mechanical treatment on acidic and cata lytical prope
rties of the external surface ZSM type zeolites by paramagnetic probe
method was investigated. The zeolite external surafce was modified by
covering with silica, orthophosphoric acid treatment and exchange of z
eolite acidic protons to lithium ions. It was shown, that due to mecha
nical treatment the achieved changes in surface properties were destru
cted and the external surface was renovated.
