OSTI ID:7017185

This patent describes a catalytic composition comprising at least one metal hydrogenation component comprising Group VIB or Group VIII metal components supported on the amorphous, porous refractory oxide. The composition comprising less than 15 weight percent of the metal hydrogenation component, calculated as the trioxide, and having a pore size distribution wherein at least 75 percent of the total pore volume is in pores of diameter from about 20 angstroms below the mode pore diameter to about 20 angstroms above the mode pore diameter, less than 10 percent of the total pore volume is in pores of diameter less than 60 angstroms and greater than 3 percent of less than 10 percent of the total pore volume is in pores of diameter greater than 110 angstroms. The mode pore diameter of the composition is in the range from about 70 to about 90 angstroms.
