Abstract: MoO3/ZrO2 nanoparticles were synthesized in AOT/isooctane reverse micelle system. The transmission electron microscope(TEM) results indicate that the size distribution of nanoparticles is normal and the size of more than 95% particles is between 38 and 60 nm. MoO3/ZrO2 particles was loaded on γ -Al2O3 and present a high dispersity. According to NH3-TPD and alkylation,MoO3/ZrO2 particles apparently have more acid sites and higher activity than those prepared by using impregnation and sol-gel method. The yield of C8 is about 79%.
