system | concentration of basic sites (support/catalyst) | concentration of acidic sites (support/catalyst) | SBET | Vpore | dpore | Dparticle |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
μmol g–1 | μmol g–1 | m2 g–1 | mL g–1 | nm | μm | |
Al2O3 | 94/103 | 480/507 | 136 | 0.28 | 5 | 50–150 |
SiO2 | 6/6 | 21/80 | 287 | 0.98 | 9 | 75–200 |
SiC | 5/7 | 7/75 | 23 | 0.20 | 38 | 500–630 |
SBET = specific surface area determined by BET method; Vpore = specific pore volume determined by BJH method; dpore = average pore diameter determined by BJH method; Dparticle = particle size range determined by sieving.
