Abstract

ZSM-48 and ZSM-22 zeolites with similar Si/Al ratio were synthesized and modified by alkali treatment. Moreover, n-dodecane hydroisomerization performance of Pt supported ZSM-22 and ZSM-48 were investigated. The catalytic results showed that the activity and the isomers selectivity of n-dodecane hydroisomerization could be improved by alkali treatment. The isomers distributions were distinct for Pt/ZSM-48 and Pt/ZSM-22. Mono-branched isomers near the end of the chains were more prone to be generated on Pt/ZSM-22 catalyst, which suggested “pore-mouth” catalysis model dominating the hydroisomerization catalysis. However, di-branched isomers and mono-branched isomers with methyl near the middle of the carbon chains were favorable to be formed over Pt/ZSM-48 catalyst according to the “key-lock” catalysis model. Moreover, more central-branched isomers were formed at high reaction temperature (> 320 °C) especially for Pt/ HZSM-22.
