Abstract: | The temperature programmed desorption (TPD) spectrum of ammonia from HLaCaNaY alkylation catalysts shows a strong band with maximum at 389°C, which virtually coincides with the optimal sample activation temperature (380°C). The TPD spectrum was found to account for the specific features of the acidity of these alkylation catalysts.
