热处理过程中磷钨杂多酸修饰ZrO2气凝胶固体酸的结构及性能演变

基于N₂物理吸附、X射线衍射(XRD)、傅里叶变换红外(FTIR)光谱、吸附吡啶红外(Py-FTIR)光谱、氨程序升温脱附(NH₃-TPD)等物理化学表征及催化四氢呋喃(THF)聚合反应实验结果, 探讨了120-750 °C空气气氛热处理对磷钨杂多酸(TPA)修饰ZrO₂气凝胶(ZA)(TPZA)固体酸结构、酸性质及酸催化性能的影响. 研究发现, 对于固载量(TPA质量分数)为25%的TPZA材料, 随热处理温度升高, ZrO₂表面发生了Keggin-杂多阴离子结构畸变、杂多阴离子分解、低聚合度表面多钨酸根物种形成以及多钨酸根物种沿载体表面二维方向聚合的钨物种演变过程; 材料相应地经历了其Brönsted酸性及酸催化活性失而复得的变化. 在实验考察范围内, 材料明显的Brönsted酸性及催化THF聚合反应活性发生在120-300 °C及550-750 °C两个热处理温度段. 其间, 材料的Brönsted酸性分别源于与Keggin-杂多阴离子及在载体表面二维方向上具有一定聚合度的聚钨物种相联系的酸性质子. 在350-450 °C处理温度范围内, 绝大多数Keggin-杂多阴离子的分解及钨物种沿载体表面方向聚合度的不足使得样品中难以形成明显数量的Brönsted酸中心. 此外, 在实验考察的整个温度范围内, 材料显示明显的Lewis酸性, 这应该与样品表面存在配位不饱和的Zr⁴⁺阳离子及磷的氧化物有关.

焙烧温度对Mn/Al2O3-TiO2催化剂结构及氧化NO性能的影响

采用溶胶凝胶法和浸渍法制备10% Mn/Al₂O₃-TiO₂催化剂,借助TPO、XRD、O₂-TPD、Raman、XPS等手段,考察焙烧温度(450~650 ℃)对催化剂结构以及氧化NO性能的影响。TPO结果表明催化剂活性随焙烧温度的升高先增后减,其中焙烧温度为550 ℃时催化剂活性最好。XPS结果显示随着焙烧温度的升高(450~550 ℃),催化剂表面Mn³⁺的含量逐渐升高,与催化剂活性的强弱成对应关系,并且催化剂晶格氧含量下降,而表面化学吸附氧从40.9%增加到64.8%。Raman分析显示550 ℃焙烧时,催化剂表面存在丰富的Mn₂O₃活性物种,并且O₂-TPD分析也表明随着焙烧温度的升高,晶格氧向表面化学吸附氧流动,提高了化学吸附态氧物种的含量。这些结果表明Mn₂O₃可能是NO氧化起主要作用的活性Mn物种,释放更多的表面化学吸附氧物种,将有助于促进NO的催化氧化。     

富氧条件下 Mn/ZSM-5 选择催化 CH4 还原 NO

 考察了富氧条件下 Mn/ZSM-5 催化剂上 CH₄ 选择催化还原 NO 反应, 并采用 H2程序升温还原、SO2程序升温表面反应和 NO程序升温脱附等手段对催化剂进行了表征. 结果表明, 催化剂活性与制备方法和 Mn 负载量密切相关. 离子交换法制备的 Mn/ZSM-5 催化剂活性明显优于浸渍法制备的催化剂; NO 转化率随着 Mn 负载量的增加而增加, 至 2.06% 时达到最大值 (57.3%), 然后随着 Mn 负载量的增加而降低. 采用离子交换法或较低 Mn 负载量 (≤ 2.06%) 抑制了催化剂中非化学计量的 MnO_x (1.5 < x < 2) 物种的形成, 减缓了 CH₄ 的氧化燃烧反应, 因而 CH₄ 还原 NO 的选择性提高. 在含 SO₂ 体系中, Mn/ZSM-5 活性在 550 ^oC 以下时明显下降, 但在 600 ^oC 以上基本不受影响. 这是由于在 550 ^oC 以下时 SO₂ 在 Mn/ZSM-5 表面形成了稳定的吸附硫物种, 覆盖了部分活性位, 导致催化剂活性降低; 而在 600 ^oC 以上时含硫物种基本脱附完全, 因而对催化剂活性影响不大.

CO-TPD结果显示, 引入Cu后, 催化剂表面CO吸附量明显增加, 有利于碳链增长; H₂-TPD结果显示, 与活性相关的低温脱附氢量也明显增加. 另外, FTIR及富集法结果发现, Cu的引入促进了表面C₁物种的形成, 增加了表面C₁物种含量, 促进了碳链增长, 明显改善了异丁醇的选择性. 在p=10.0 MPa, 空速(GHSV)=3000 h^-1, T=360℃, V(H₂)/V(CO)=1:1条件下,异丁醇选择性达到48.5%.

XRD和TEM分析表明Au/ZrO₂样品中Au粒子的平均尺寸为4～5 nm, 而ZrO₂的晶相和颗粒大小没有因为“负载”Au粒子而发生变化. CO催化氧化反应的结果表明, Au/ZrO₂催化活性随着ZrO₂纳米粒子尺寸的减小活性明显增加. TEM/HRTEM结果表明, Au/ZrO₂催化剂中Au粒子与ZrO₂颗粒接触界面随ZrO₂颗粒尺寸的减小而明显增加, 这很可能是含有更小尺寸ZrO₂纳米粒子的Au/ZrO₂催化剂具有更高催化活性的重要原因.

Facile synthesis of WOx/ZrO2 catalysts using WO3·H2O precipitate as synthetic precursor of active tungsten species

Zirconia-supported tungsten oxide (WO_x/ZrO₂) catalysts were successfully synthesized using a suspension containing amorphous hydrous zirconia precipitates [ZrO_x(OH)_4-2x·yH₂O]_n and tungstate monohydrate (WO₃·H₂O) precipitates. The procedure involved the dissolution of the WO₃·H₂O precipitate during the aging process with the release of oxyanion [WO₄]^2- species, interaction of this species with the surface of the [ZrO_x(OH)_4-2x·yH₂O]_n precipitate and, formation of active WO_x species after thermal treatment. Non-bridging hydroxyl (OH^?) groups present in the [ZrO_x(OH)_4-2x·yH₂O]_n precipitate act as an active agent for the WO₃·H₂O dissolution. N₂ physisorption, X-ray diffraction (XRD), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), temperature-programmed reduction using hydrogen (H₂-TPR), temperature-programmed desorption of ammonia (NH₃-TPD), Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy of adsorbed pyridine, and Raman spectroscopy were used to elucidate the catalyst structure–performance relationship. The catalytic activity was evaluated for the oxidative desulfurization (ODS) of a model fuel containing dibenzothiophene (DBT). For a fixed WO₃·H₂O content, longer aging times improved the catalyst activity, reaching a maximum when WO₃·H₂O was completely dissolved. The increase in surface area and formation of more active Zr-WO_x clusters and polytungstates are observed for the highest active catalysts. A synergetic effect between local Lewis and Brønsted acid sites seems to have contributed to the observed superior activity. The proposed strategy provides an efficient approach to produce active WO_x/ZrO₂ catalysts and may be applicable for designing other heterogeneous catalytic systems.     

WO_3对MnO_x-CeO_2/ZrO_2-TiO_2整体式催化剂NH_3选择性催化还原NO_x性能的影响

不同载体对负载型氧化钨催化剂在己二酸合成反应中的结构及性能影响

以SBA-15、六角介孔二氧化硅（HMS）和SnO₂为载体,通过浸渍法合成了含钨负载型催化剂,并考察了三种催化剂在环氧环己烷选择氧化制备己二酸反应中的催化性能. 通过X射线衍射（XRD）,透射电镜/场发射透射电镜（TEM/FETEM）,紫外-可见漫反射光谱（UV-Vis DRS）,拉曼（Raman）光谱,X射线光电子能谱（XPS）以及傅里叶变换红外（FTIR）光谱等手段对各种催化剂的结构进行表征. 结果表明,载体与催化剂的性能有密切的关系. 以SnO₂为载体的WO₃/SnO₂催化剂活性最高,其次是WO₃/HMS催化剂,WO₃/SBA-15 催化剂的活性最差.XRD 分析显示WO₃/SnO₂催化剂中氧化钨物种的晶化程度最低,TEM 和XPS 结果表明氧化钨物种在WO₃/SnO₂催化剂表面高度分散并且粒径尺寸很小（约2 nm）,UV-Vis DRS结果表明在WO₃/SnO₂催化剂中存在孤立[WO₄]四面体和低聚态的钨物种,这些物种的存在可能是WO₃/SnO₂催化剂具有高活性的主要原因. 此外,WO₃/SnO₂催化剂可以重复使用多次,6 次反应后己二酸（AA）得率仍然保持在80%以上,说明氧化钨物种与SnO₂载体间存在强烈的相互作用,从而提高了催化剂的稳定性.     

Trimerization of Isobutene Over Solid Acid Catalysts

Oligomerization of isobutene is a very promising reaction not only for the production of isobutene oligomers such as trimers but also for the separation of isobutene from C₄ mixtures. Several solid acid catalysts have been applied for the continuous oligomerization of isobutene in liquid phase. This review analyzes the trimerization of isobutene over various solid acid catalysts such as zeolites, oxides (zirconias and titanias) and acid resins. Trimers selectivity increases with increasing isobutene conversion, irrespective of catalysts such as zeolites and acid resins. Very stable operation with high trimers selectivity is accomplished with WO _x /ZrO₂ catalyst having tetragonal zirconia or various zeolite catalysts with high Lewis acid site-to-Brønsted acid site ratio (LA/BA ratio). For a good performance, acid resins should be macroporous and strong acid (sulphonic acid group) with high acid concentration. Inorganic catalysts are superior to acid resins because the deactivated inorganic materials can be regenerated by simple calcination. The WO _x /ZrO₂ catalyst may be applied to a commercial process because about several thousand tons of isobutene can be oligomerized per one ton of zirconia catalyst in a catalytic cycle without regeneration. The oligomerization of isobutene may be improved further because the reaction has been started only recently and no research has been done for the optimization of the reaction and catalysts. It is expected to develop a new inorganic catalyst having suitable acidity, LA/BA ratio and phase, etc. by further research. The isobutene trimers, with or without hydrogenation, may be used for various purposes, and the importance of this trimerization reaction will be increased considering the expected surplus of isobutene due to the banned use of methyl-tert-butyl ether.     

Direct Oxidation of Propylene with Molecular Oxygen over Ti-Modified Sulfated Zirconia Catalyst, 1. Characterization of the Catalyst and Catalytic Performances

Some zirconia-based catalysts were tested for the reaction of propylene in the presence of molecular O₂ without any additive at 428 K under atmospheric pressure. The catalyst TiSZ, which was prepared by a direct impregnation of titanium sulfate on amorphous zirconia, was found to show the highest yields of oxygenated compounds such as propylene oxide, with C4-C6 hydrocarbons. Characterization of the catalysts, by using XRD, XPS, and NH₃-TPD, exhibited that the catalytic performances were dependent on the surface acidity.     

Characterization and acidic properties of Al-SBA-15 materials prepared by post-synthesis alumination of a low-cost ordered mesoporous silica

A series of Al-containing SBA-15 type materials with different Si/Al ratio, were prepared by post-synthesis modification of a pure highly ordered mesoporous silica SBA-15 obtained by using sodium silicate as silica source, and amphiphilic block copolymer as structure-directing agent. A high level of aluminum incorporation was achieved, reaching an Si/Al ratio of up to 5.5, without any significant loss in the textural properties of SBA-15. These materials were fully characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), ²⁷Al NMR spectroscopy, and N₂ adsorption at 77 K. The acid properties of these materials have been evaluated by NH₃-TPD, adsorption of pyridine and deuterated acetonitrile coupled to FTIR spectroscopy. The effective acidity of these materials was evaluated using two catalytic reactions: 2-propanol dehydrogenation and 1-butene isomerization. The adsorption of basic probe molecules and the catalytic behavior revealed an evolution of the acid properties with the Al content. These studies have shown that the Al-SBA-15 materials contain Brønsted and Lewis acid sites with medium acidity which makes them appropriate to be used as acid catalysts in heterogeneous catalysis, catalytic supports, and adsorbents.     

Preparation of ZrO<Subscript>2</Subscript>–SiO<Subscript>2</Subscript> mixed oxide by combination of sol–gel and alcohol-aqueous heating method and its application in tetrahydrofuran polymerization

Without using any acid or base catalyst, complexing agent or zirconium alkoxides, ZrO₂–SiO₂ mixed oxide with the ZrO₂ content of 50 mol% was prepared by combination of sol–gel and alcohol-aqueous heating method using zirconyl nitrate and tetraethoxysilane as starting materials. The structural and surface acidic properties were characterized by FT-IR, XRD, NH₃-TPD and pyridine adsorption FTIR. Compared with another mixed oxide with the same ZrO₂ content prepared by mechanical grinding, the obtained ZrO₂–SiO₂ mixed oxide was homogeneously mixed in molecular level. The existed Zr–O–Si hetero-linkages strongly retarded the ZrO₂ particle growth. The obtained mixed oxide maintained amorphous phase until it was calcined at 1,173 K for 3 h when crystallization of tetragonal zirconia took place. NH₃-TPD and pyridine adsorption FTIR showed that both Brønsted and Lewis acidity were largely developed in the mixed oxide and most of the acidic sites belonged to the medium acidity. Because of the existence of abundant medium acidity, the mixed oxide showed catalytic activity for tetrahydrofuran polymerization. Furthermore, the produced poly tetramethylene ether glycol had moderate average molecular weight around 2,000. Neither the pure oxides nor the mixed oxide prepared by the mechanical grinding presented catalytic activity for this reaction.     

Synthesis and Characterization of Sol-Gel Cu-ZrO2 and Fe-ZrO2 Catalysts

Fe-ZrO₂ and Cu-ZrO₂ xerogels were prepared by a sol-gel method. The effect of the hydrolysis catalyst during the gelation step, namely H₂SO₄ or NH₄OH, on the properties of the resulting materials was investigated by XRD, BET, TGA/DTA, TPD of ammonia, FTIR, and TPR. Fe-ZrO₂ and Cu-ZrO₂ xerogels, with sulfuric acid introduced as the hydrolysis catalyst, mainly crystallyzed in the tetragonal phase and exhibited larger surface area and acid amount than those obtained with NH₄OH. Ammonia TPD shows that copper promoted sulfated zirconia is the most acidic material. TGA and FTIR reveal that under oxidizing conditions sulfated zirconia promoted with iron and copper retains more sulfate species than unpromoted sulfated zirconia. Regardless of the hydrolysis catalyst employed, copper promoted catalysts calcined at 600°C, contain a large fraction of copper oxide specieseasily reduced at low temperatures. These copper oxide species are believed to have different environment and interactions with the surface oxygen vacancies of the zirconia support. A FeO-like phase appears to be the most probable one after reduction of Fe-ZrO₂ catalysts prepared with NH₄OH as the hydrolysis catalyst. The formation of Fe° species may be hindered by the high dispersion and interaction of Fe²⁺ ions with the zirconia support. On the other hand, the reduction peaks of iron oxide and sulfate species exhibit a considerable overlap in the TPR profiles of sulfated Fe-ZrO₂ samples. Hence, the nature of the supported phase in the latter samples is rather uncertain.
