EXPERIMENTAL
A series of platinum-alumina catalysts (Table 1) were prepared via impregnation of 7-A120 3 in a solution of excess H2PtC16. Samples 1-4 and 5-8 ~ were prepared using alumina, Type 5788 (22 m2/g) and A-1 (t80 m2/g), respectively.
Temperatures of the thermal treatments in air after drying and of the reduction in
a stream of hydrogen are listed in Table 1.
X-ray diffraction studies were performed on an M-62 instrument (TUR, Dresden),
a PW 1050 (Phillips, Hamburg) vertical goniometer, and HTK-10 (PAAP,, Graz)
high-temperature chamber, a graphite monochromator crystal, a BDS-6 (Burevestnik,
Leningrad) scintillation counter and a measuring unit ("Messelektronik", Dresden).
The construction of sample carrier ensured good exchange with the gas flow (flow
rate 10 l/h).
The results of high-temperature measurements in the given media (air, hydrogen,
argon) and at room temperature after the respective high-temperature treatment were
the same, therefore, the measurements were performed mainly after cooling to room
temperature. The degree of platinum crystallization was measured from the relation
between the intensities of the diffraction lines Pt(Sll) of the initial sample and of the
same one after sintering at 900-10 000 K (100% crystallization). The size of platinum
particles were determined by the Sherrer equation. Each diffraction curve was recorded from 150 points with the accumulation of 10 000 pulses per 1 rain at each point,
which corresponds to an experimental error of 1%. In processing the results, the dif-

Fig. t. Fragment of the diffraction curve near Pt(311) under various conditions of
catalyst treatment; a, b - sample 7 after storage in air and hydrogen at
623 K, respectively, c, d, e, f, g, h - sample 3 after storage in air,
hydrogen at 623 and 903 K, argon (903 K) and air (723 K), respectively
was interpreted in terms of the structural model of PtH0.6' wherein half the platinum
atoms centered in the planes were substituted by hydrogen. Unlike in Ref. /7/, in
our case the phase of PtH0.6 was stable only in a hydrogen stream. According to
Fig. 1 (curve f), in argon Pt particles of FCC structure are reformed.
The conditions of platinum hydride formation upon the interaction of platinumalumina catalysts with the reaction medium are still unclear and should be studied
it, more detail.
T h e , the results indicate that starting from 550-600 K, in hydrogen practically
complete reduction of platinum is observed ; in several cases at higher temperatures
a platinumhydride is also formed.
