Abstract: IRstudy showed that the Fe3+, Mg3+ and Na+ salts of H3PW12O40 have both Lewis acid and Bronsted acid sites. The relative acid strength of salts of H3PW12O40 determined by Benesi’s method is roughly as follows.(Al3+, Fe3+ , La3+, Cu3+ , Cd3+)>Zn2+>(Ca2+, Mg2+ )(Na2+, Li2+)The total acidity of H0≤+ 6.8 related approximately linearly with ionic potential and the electronegativity of the countercations. The acid quantity varied with the calcination temperatnre, showing maximum at 200-250℃.The somewhat different form of the graphs of catalytic activity versus acidity of catalysts on dehydration of isopropanol and isomerization of butene-1 might be due to that the former reaction occured in the bulk of the catalysts.
