The objective of this study is to evaluate the catalytic potential of metal oxide/MCM-41 catalysts in dicyclopentadiene oligomerization/dicyclopentadiene oligomer isomerization. Molybdenum oxide, tungsten oxide, and titanium oxide were loaded on MCM-41 using the modified atomic layer deposition method. The amount of the acid site with weak strength has been increased through metal oxide deposition. The oligomer yield in dicyclopentadiene oligomerization/dicyclopentadiene oligomer isomerization did not change with increasing of the amount of acid site. The highest tricyclopentadiene isomer selectivity over the MoO3/MCM-41 catalyst could be attributed to having the highest overall number of acid sites among the catalysts.
