Journal ArticleDOI
The conversion of methanol and other O-compounds to hydrocarbons over zeolite catalysts: II. Pressure effects
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of pressure on methanol conversion to hydrocarbons over ZSM-5 class zeolites has been investigated and the relative rates of the dehydration and aromatization steps in the reaction sequence were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Direct evidence for dual-functional cyclization of paraffins over platinum reforming catalysts
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the paraffin cyclization reaction can proceed by a dual-functional mechanism using either a platinum on charcoal catalyst or an alumina catalyst.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reaction paths for decyclization of methylcyclopentane over PtAl2O3 catalyst
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the decyclization of methylcyclopentane on dual-functional Pt Al 2 O 3 catalyst can proceed by an aciddependent route in addition to an acid-independent platinum catalyzed mechanism.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tellurium-loaded zeolites: IV. Effect of hydrogen partial pressure on dehydrocyclization activity
TL;DR: The effect of hydrogen partial pressure on the n-hexane dehydrocyclization activity of Te/NaX catalyst has been determined and compared with that observed for Cr2O3/Al 2O3.
