Effect of metal content on the activity and product selectivity of n-decane hydroisomerization over Ni-Pd/HY zeolite

Zeolite-Y was impregnated with 0.1 wt% Pd and 0.1 to 0.5 wt% Ni. The synthesized catalyst shows an enhanced activity, dibranched isomers selectivity and sustainability of the catalysts in n-decane hydroisomerization.
