Abstract

Catalysts having a bimodal pore radius distribution comprisea) from 10 to 99.9% by weight of zirconium dioxide andb) from 0 to 60% by weight of aluminum oxide, silicon dioxide and/or titanium dioxide andc) from 0.1 to 10% by weight of at least one element of main group I or II, an element of transition group III, an element of transition group VIII, of the Periodic Table of the Elements, lanthanum and/or tin,with the proviso that the sum of the percentages by weight is 100.
