Formed Catalyst Base
UOP possesses the unique manufacturing capability to produce spherical
catalyst supports from alumina, silica-alumina, and molecular sieves.
We employ advanced oil-dropping technology to produce spheres of exceptional
uniformity of size and shape.
UOP has also developed the capability to produce extruded catalyst supports
from a variety of materials. Such materials include high-purity Versal alumina
powders, amorphous silica-alumina and alumina, as well as silica-bound molecular
sieves, clay-bound alumina, and amorphous silica. We offer several extruded
shapes of catalyst supports, including cylindrical and trilobed.
Our Specialty Products group can offer you a great degree of customization
of the physical and chemical properties of the supports you need. To find out
