An improved support for an ethylene epoxidation catalyst is provided. The support includes an alumina component containing a first portion of alumina particles having an average primary particle size of 2 μm or more and 6 μm or less, and a second portion of alumina particles having a particle size of less than 2 μm. There is also provided an improved catalyst containing the aforementioned support and an improved process for epoxidation of ethylene using the catalyst. [Selection figure] None |
