Abstract
A series of ZSM-48 zeolites with low Si/Al ratios (Si/Al < 100) were synthesized by hydrothermal synthesis method using hexamethydiammonium bromide as the structure directing agent. ICP-AES results showed that the Si/Al ratio of the synthesized sample was as low as 38.6, indicating the zeolite could be widely used. Pt supported on ZSM-48 with different Si/Al ratios were used for n-paraffin hydroisomerization. The catalytic reaction results showed that Pt/HZSM-48 with Si/Al ratio of 70 exhibited the best catalytic performance. However, the distribution of isomers had not been affected by Si/Al ratio of the ZSM-48, and the central-branched isomers were the main hydroisomerization products.
