BIMODAL POROUS MATERIAL AND CATALYST USING THE SAME

摘要

A bimodal porous material which is prepared by modifying a first porous material having an average pore diameter of a first pore diameter, and has a first peak of pore diameter distribution at the position of the above first pore diameter or a position near to the position and a second peak of pore diameter distribution at a position corresponding to a smaller diameter than that for the first peak; and a catalyst using the porous material. The bimodal porous material is suitably used for producing a catalyst having a metal carried thereon, in particular that used for Fisher-Tropsch synthesis reaction, especially, that having a metallic cobalt carried thereon.
