Highly active solid superacid catalysts for n-butane isomerization, SZ/Al2O3-P, were prepared by supporting SO42-/ZrO2 (SZ) on γ-Al2O3 carrier using a precipitation method.The activities of some catalysts were enhanced significantly.The activity of the most active sample, 60%SZ/Al2O3-P, was even about 2 times more active than that of the SZ catalyst.
