Abstract

Abstract A method of impregnating a catalytic component on the outer surface of a carrier material at conditions to improve the activity stability as well as the physical stability of the catalytic composite. A carrier material is immersed in an impregnating solution containing a catalytic component and a sulfur-containing carboxylic acid whereby the catalytic component is dispersed on the outer surface of the carrier material without any substantial penetration thereof. Prior to calcining, the impregnated carrier material is further impregnated with an alkaline earth metal salt of an organic acid and the solution evaporated to dryness in contact with the impregnated carrier material.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim 138 words
A method of manufacturing a catalytic composite which comprises: a. commingling a refractory inorganic oxide carrier material with an impregnating solution containing a sulfur-containing carboxylic acid and a Group VIII metal component in an acid/metal mole ratio of from about 1 to about 3, and effecting the deposition of said Group VIII metal compound on the outer surface of said carrier material; b. prior to calcining the impregnated carrier material, further impregnating the same with a solution of an alkaline earth metal salt of an organic acid selected from the group consisting of the calcium, strontium and barium salts thereof, and evaporating said solution to dryness in contact with the impregnated carrier material; and c. thereafter calcining the impregnated carrier material in an oxidizing atmosphere at a temperature of from about 200° to about 1000° C. or more.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 138 words
A method of manufacturing a catalytic composite which comprises: a. commingling a refractory inorganic oxide carrier material with an impregnating solution containing a sulfur-containing carboxylic acid and a Group VIII metal component in an acid/metal mole ratio of from about 1 to about 3, and effecting the deposition of said Group VIII metal compound on the outer surface of said carrier material; b. prior to calcining the impregnated carrier material, further impregnating the same with a solution of an alkaline earth metal salt of an organic acid selected from the group consisting of the calcium, strontium and barium salts thereof, and evaporating said solution to dryness in contact with the impregnated carrier material; and c. thereafter calcining the impregnated carrier material in an oxidizing atmosphere at a temperature of from about 200° to about 1000° C. or more.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 16 words
The method of claim 1 further characterized in that said sulfur-containing carboxylic acid is thiomalic acid.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 16 words
The method of claim 1 further characterized in that said sulfur-containing carboxylic acid is thioglycolic acid.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 19 words
The method of claim 1 further characterized in that said Group VIII metal component is a noble metal component.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 18 words
The method of claim 1 further characterized in that said Group VIII metal component is a platinum component.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 24 words
The method of claim 1 further characterized in that said Group VIII metal component is a platinum component in combination with a palladium component.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 53 words
The method of claim 1 further characterized in that said Group VIII metal component comprises palladium in combination with platinum in a weight ratio of from about 9:1 to about 1:4, in an amount to yield a final catalytic composite containing from about 0.0025 to about 2.0 wt. % of the palladium-platinum combination.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 36 words
The method of claim 1 further characterized in that said refractory inorganic oxide carrier material is a low density, spheroidal alumina with a surface area of from about 25 to about 600 square meters per gram.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 45 words
The method of claim 1 further characterized with respect to step (b) in that said alkaline earth metal salt of an organic acid is utilized in an amount to provide a final product containing from about 8 to about 10 wt. % alkaline earth metal.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 27 words
The method of claim 1 further characterized with respect to step (b) in that said alkaline earth metal salt is a barium salt of an organic acid.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 22 words
The method of claim 1 further characterized with respect to step (b) in that said alkaline earth metal salt is barium acetate.
