dc.description.abstractNi–W/silica–alumina based catalysts with different nickel and tungsten concentration (nickel ranging from 12 to 17% and tungsten ranging from 8 to 30%) were prepared by sol–gel method. The BET, temperature-programmed desorption of ammonia (TPDA) and inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES) techniques were used to characterize the prepared solids. Afterwards, the catalysts were screened for activity and selectivity in the hydroconversion of n-decane. Under the experimental conditions, yields of isomers as well as cracking products were a function of both metal content and amount of acid sites. Up to 15% Ni content, nickel increased isomerization selectivity, afterwards, the catalytic selectivity decreased. Moreover, the higher the amount of medium acid sites present on the catalyst, the higher its activity and its deactivation.ar
