Technology Overview
This technology involves a unique process of adding organic silica reagents to aluminum alkoxide in a solvent-deficient reaction, followed by calcination, to produce alumina (Al₂O₃) catalyst supports. These supports exhibit exceptional thermal stability and maintain high surface areas and pore volumes even at temperatures up to 1200°C. This advancement addresses the common issue of sintering and phase transformation at high temperatures, which typically reduce the effectiveness of catalyst supports.
Key Advantages
- Enhanced thermal stability of alumina catalyst supports
