Pseudo-boehmitpulver til katalysatorbærer og fremgangsmåde til fremstilling heraf

摘要

An aluminum salt solution and an alkali aluminate solution are subjected to a neutralization reaction to precipitate and form a pseudo-boehmite powder. The neutralization reaction is performed under a condition in which the reaction temperature is within a range of 55 to 71 DEG C, pH is within a range of 8.5 to 9.5, and the solution feed time is within a range of 7 to 25 minutes. The obtained pseudo-boehmite is as follows. That is, the pore volume concerning pores having a pore diameter ranging from 20 to 600 ANGSTROM is within a range of 0.8 to 1.8 cc/g as measured by the nitrogen adsorption method, and the maximum value of variation ratio dV/dD of the pore volume with respect to the pore diameter as measured by the BJH method is not more than 0.018 cc/g. ANGSTROM . When the pseudo-boehmite is used, it is possible to produce a catalyst carrier for hydrogenation refining, which has a sharp pore diameter distribution and which suffers less decrease in strength upon impregnation with a catalyst solution.
