Abstract
Highly crystalline ZSM-23 zeolite, exhibiting a distinctive dumbbell morphology, was synthesized via a hydrothermal method. Bifunctional catalysts, comprising single metals (Pt or Au) and bimetals (Pt-Au), were successfully prepared by using a positional precipitation method. The hydroisomerization of hexadecane served as a model reaction to assess the catalytic performance arising from the synergistic effects of bimetallic active sites. In comparison to single-metal catalysts, 0.3Au0.7Pt/ZSM-23 demonstrated increased n-C16 conversion, while 0.5Au0.5Pt/ZSM-23 exhibited enhanced i-C16 selectivity, achieving the highest i-C16 yield. The bimetallic catalyst not only finely tuned the metal site activity through bimetallic synergy but also achieved a superior balance between metal and acid catalysis, resulting in improved catalytic performance in the n-C16 hydroisomerization. The Pt-Au bimetallic catalyst approached the ideal requirements for a hydroisomerization catalyst, achieving a harmonious balance of metal and acid catalysis.
