Alumina supports were prepared by solvothermal method of a mixed solution of toluene and butan-1-ol for various chi/gamma phase compositions and the Pt/Al2O3 catalyst was prepared by the incipient wetness impregnation technique. The catalysts were evaluated in the carbon monoxide oxidation. Increasing amount of %chi phase in the alumina supports has roughly the same BET surface area. The different alumina supports were affected on the Pt dispersion on alumina. The pure chi alumina and pure gamma alumina supports had the same effect of catalyst activity. In the various chi/gamma phase compositions, it was found that Pt dispersion and catalyst activity are lower than pure gamma and chi phases for alumina support with 10% chi. The alumina supports with 30-70'% chi gave higher dispersion and activity than pure phase and 10% chi support. (C) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
