  • Publication number: 20250018380
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a technical field of preparation of zeolite molecular sieve catalysts, and in particular relates to a preparation method of a metal oxide loaded nano zeolite particle catalyst. In the preparation method, industrial ?-alumina balls are treated with a quaternary ammonium alkali solution, then pretreated ?-alumina balls are mixed with a zeolite precursor solution and are hydrothermally crystallized. Then a two-step high-temperature heat treatment is performed to obtain an alumina loaded zeolite nano particle material, solving problems of large zeolite dosage and poor dispersion in hydrocracking catalysts. Finally, the metal oxide loaded nano zeolite particle catalyst is obtained by combining transition metals. Nano zeolite particles prepared regulate a surface acidity of alumina, and exfoliated zeolites may be used independently as a catalyst, which saves cost and improves a utilization of the zeolites.
