Magnetic and Moessbauer characterization of transition metal catalysts supported on aluminosilicates

Decomposition of Fe/sub 3/(CO)/sub 12/ on a series of mordenites was studied by magnetic measurements and Moessbauer spectroscopy. Particle size determination for these Fischer-Tropsch catalysts indicated that the best dispersion can be obtained when the number of acid sites in mordenite is maximum. Thermomagnetic measurements and Moessbauer spectroscopy suggested that some iron clusters are inside the pores of mordenites. The change in the Moessbauer isomer shift for Fe/mordenites elucidated that nature of metal-support interactions. 5 figures.
