Catalyst used was of the composition Ni:Co:Si=1:1:2. Double fractionation with a Widmer column gave distillates at 30°-40°, 60°-70°, 90°-100°, 120°-130° and 140°-150°. About 75 vol. % were found to be distillable at 220°. The contents of unsaturated hydrocarbons were determined by the observation of density, n and I number; they are lower for a higher boiling point. The method of Garner gave 90.5% paraffins and 9.5% olefins. The product was water white, had good volatility, did not contain any S compounds and diolefins, refining was not necessary and it had a high heating value.
