Factors Affecting the Activity and Selectivity of Alumina Catalysts in the Dehydration of 1-Butanol

Alumina catalysts A1, A2 and A3 calcined at 873 K, 973 K and 1073 K, respectively, were prepared. The textural properties (surface area and porosity) of these catalysts were determined from nitrogen adsorption studies at 77 K. The acidity (acid amount, acid strength and surface acid density) was det...
