A Ni-based catalyst with polyvinyl pyrrolidone as a dispersant supported in a pretreated fluid catalytic cracking catalyst residue for C9 petroleum resin (C9 PR) hydrogenation.

ABSTRACT: A Ni-based catalyst (Ni-PVP/PFC3R) with polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) as a dispersant supported in a pretreated fluid catalytic cracking catalyst residue (PFC3R) was synthesized and applied to C9 petroleum resin (C9 PR) hydrogenation. For comparison, a Ni catalyst without PVP (Ni/PFC3R) was prepared in the same way. Ni-PVP/PFC3R exhibited higher activity and better stability. The catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope, H2-temperature programmed reduction/temperature programmed desorption, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller method. The catalysts had a smaller crystallite size and stronger interactions between the Ni species and the PFC3R support in the presence of PVP. The effects of nickel loading, H2 pressure, temperature and reaction time for C9 PR hydrogenation over Ni-PVP/PFC3R were investigated. The bromine number was reduced to 1.25 under the following conditions: nickel content of 12 wt%, PVP amount of 1.5 wt%, temperature of 270°C, H2 pressure of 8?MPa and reaction time of 240?min.
