Features Of Clariant TONSIL APT-pX L Catalyst

  1. Highly selective acidic clay-based catalyst optimized for alkylation and acylation reactions.

  2. Controlled surface acidity and uniform pore structure ensure consistent reaction performance and reduced by-product formation.

  3. Thermally stable up to 300 °C, enabling robust operation in continuous fixed-bed processes.

  4. Low dust generation and excellent mechanical strength for extended service life and minimal pressure drop.

  5. Free-flowing granular form with narrow particle size distribution for uniform bed packing and optimal mass transfer.

Typical Applications Of Clariant TONSIL APT-pX L Catalyst

  1. Friedel–Crafts alkylation of aromatic hydrocarbons (e.g., benzene with propylene to produce cumene).

  2. Acylation of phenols and anilines for fine chemical intermediates in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals.

  3. Dehydration and isomerization of C4–C5 olefins in petrochemical refining streams.

  4. Esterification and transesterification reactions in bio-lubricant and plasticizer synthesis.

  5. Condensation reactions for specialty resins and functional polymers.
