Factorial and rotational designs have been used to analyse the effect of each preparative variable on the surface acid strength distribution in silica-alumina catalysts. Relationships between the surface acidities at p K a = 2·8, 3·3 and 4·8 and the most important variables, namely precipitation rate and temperature, drying pressure and temperature, impregnation concentration and calcination temperature have been obtained.
