Selectivity changes of acetone transformation over ZSM-5 zeolites with different acido-basic properties

Abstract
Acetone transformation catalyzed by HZSM-5 and NaZSM-5 zeolites and by zeolites modified with basic oxides was studied in an integral reactor at a temperature of 350 °C. Modification of acido-basic properties of ZSM-5 zeolites resulted both in the total conversion changes and in the essential changes in the product composition. Isobutene was found to be the main product over HZSM-5 zeolites exhibiting low activity, while aromatics prevailed when high conversion level was attained. Classical condensation of acetone yielding mesityloxide and phorones was observed over NaZSM-5 zeolites impregnated with CaO and ZnO.
