Bu çalışmada kullanılan katalizörterin yüzeyleri elelctron mikroskobuyla incelendi ve yüzey alanlan gaz adsorpsiyon metoduna göre m2g-1 cinsinden hesaplandı. Ayrıca katı asit katalizörlerde asidik kuvvet ölçümü Hammett indikatör adsorpsiyon metoduna göre tayin edildi. Bu katalizörler (NiSO4, CuSO4, CoSO4.H2O) kullanılarak, 2,6-dimetil-4-heptanol, 3,7-dimetil-3-oktanol ve 2-oktanol'ün dehidrasyon reaksiyonlan incelendi.

In this study; the surfaces of the catalysts were examined by electron microscope and their surface areas were calculated with gas adsorption method as a unit of m2g-1. In addition, the acid strength on solid catalysts (NiSO4, CuSO4, CoSO4.H2O) was detennined by Hammett indicator adsorption method and also, dehydration reactions of2,6-dimethyl-4-heptanol, 3,7-dimethyl-3-octanol and 2-octanol were investigated with the same catalysts
