This paper examines the problem of determining the number of principal components in the products from thermodesorption/mass spectroscopy (TDMS) of isopropylbenzene on aluminosilicates, and in the products of TDMS from tetralin on alumina-nickel-molybdenum zeolitic catalysts. Aluminosilicate catalysts are used extensively in the catalytic cracking of various petroleum cuts and alumina-nickel-molybdenum zeolitic catalysts are used in petroleum refining and petrochemical processes such as hydrocracking, hydrotreating, and hydrodesulfurization. The number of principal components in products from the catalytic conversion of individual hydrocarbons is calculated: 4-5 components in the products of TDMS of isopropylbenzene, and 7-8 components in the conversion of tetralin on alumina-nickel-molybdenum catalysts.
