Process for the preparation of fluidizable catalysts

摘要

A process is provided for preparing supported catalysts by impregnating a pre-formed support with a solution of a metal alkoxide and contacting the impregnated support with a solution of at least one additional catalyst component. This process is particularly suitable for forming attrition resistant fluidizable catalysts. Catalysts prepared by this method are useful in various reaction processes, and may be utilized in oxidation processes such as the production of maleic anhydride from 4 carbon atom hydrocarbons.
