Abstract

Abstract A novel hydrocarbon conversion catalyst is disclosed. Additionally, a method of preparing the catalyst and a process for its use are disclosed. The catalyst comprises a platinum group component, a Group IVA component and an alkali component on a carrier material. The alkali component further comprises from about 0.05 to about 10.0 wt. %, on the weight of the composite, of a second alkali metal. The catalyst has particular utility as a dehydrogenation catalyst.
