Abstract
Based on the time on stream dependence of product distribution during deact ivation and on additional investigations of fresh and deactivated samples b y the homomolecular H-D exchange of molecular hydrogen, it is concluded, th at the deactivation during n-octane dehydrocyclisation on CrOx/La2O3/ZrO2 c atalysts is caused by a decreasing dehydrogenation capability of the active surface and not by increasing mass transport resistance.
