碳纳米管结构对碳纳米管载Pt催化剂电催化性能的影响

在制备单、双壁及不同管径的多壁碳纳米管(CNTs)的基础上, 用液相还原法把Pt沉积到单、双壁和管径不同的多壁CNTs上. 发现制得的CNTs载Pt(Pt/CNTs)催化剂对甲醇氧化的电催化活性随CNTs管径减小而增加. 这归结于管径小的CNTs的比表面积较大, 含氧基团多, 有利于提高Pt粒子分散度, 加上管径小的单壁CNTs具有更高的导电性, 这些因素都有利于提高Pt/CNTs催化剂对甲醇氧化的电催化活性.     

碳纳米管表面修饰程度对碳纳米管载Pt电催化性能的影响

比较了用不同温度的浓HNO₃处理的碳纳米管(CNTs)作载体的Pt(Pt/CNTs)对甲醇氧化的电催化活性. 结果表明浓HNO₃处理使CNTs表面修饰上的含氧基团对CNTs上沉积Pt粒子的平均粒径有较大影响. 表面修饰程度适当时, 制得的Pt/CNTs中Pt粒子较小, 因此, 对甲醇氧化的电催化活性较高. 而表面修饰程度过大, 易使Pt粒子团聚, 从而降低Pt/CNTs催化剂对甲醇氧化的电化学活性.     

PtRu/C电催化剂上甲醇吸附氧化过程的电化学原位红外光谱

采用调变的多元醇法制备了高分散的Pt/C, PtRu/C和Ru/C电催化剂. XRD计算结果表明, PtRu/C电催化剂的平均粒径和合金度分别为2.2 nm和71%. 采用电化学方法和原位傅里叶变换红外反射光谱方法(in situ FTIRS)研究了甲醇在3种电催化剂上的吸附氧化过程, 发现PtRu/C对甲醇的催化活性明显高于Pt/C, Ru的加入一方面影响了甲醇在Pt上的解离吸附性能, 另一方面提供了Ru-OH物种, 从而抑制了低电位下电催化剂中毒. 红外光谱研究结果表明, 线性吸附态CO(COL)是主要毒化物种, 反应产物主要是CO2, 还有少量的甲酸甲酯. 根据实验结果讨论了甲醇在PtRu/C电催化剂上的氧化机理.     

碳载Pt和PtRu催化剂的甲醇电氧化比较

利用电化学方法对商用Pt/C和PtRu/C催化剂在酸性介质中的甲醇电氧化进行了比较研究.动电位和恒电位氧化实验结果皆表明PtRu/C比Pt/C对甲醇电催化活性高.PtRu合金的形成不仅改变了催化剂表面对氢的吸附性质,而且使氧化物还原峰电位向阴极方向移动.Ru与甲醇的相互作用为温度活化过程,需要较高的温度.

Investigation of Methanol Behavior at the Designed Electrochemical Sensor based on Ni(II) Complex and Graphene Nanosheets

In this work, the electrochemical oxidation of methanol was investigated by different electrochemical methods at a carbon paste electrode (CPE) modified with (N‐5‐methoxysalicylaldehyde, N´‐2‐hydroxyacetophenon‐1, 2 phenylenediimino nickel(II) complex (Ni(II)–MHP) and reduced graphene oxide (RGO), which is named Ni(II)‐MHP/RGO/CPE, in an alkaline solution. This modified electrode was found to be efficient for the oxidation of methanol. It was found that methanol was oxidized by the NiOOH groups generated by further electrochemical oxidation of nickel(II) hydroxide on the surface of the modified electrode. Under optimum conditions, some parameters of the analyte (MeOH), such as the electron transfer coefficient (α), the electron transfer rate constant) k_s), and the diffusion coefficient of species in a 0.1 M solution (pH = 13), were determined. The designed sensor showed a linear dynamic range of 2.0–100.0 and 100.0–1000.0 μM and a detection limit of 0.68 μM for MeOH determination. The Ni(II)‐MHP/RGO/CPE sensor was used in the determination of MeOH in a real sample.     

Electrochemically Co‐deposited Teeth‐like Virus‐Platinum Nanohybrids as an Electrocatalyst for Methanol Oxidation Reaction

M13 virus (M13) as scaffolds has a major appeal, owing to their mono‐dispersed, fibrillar morphology and engineerable surface reactive sites. Herein we had developed a facile electrocatalyst for energy application. Platinum nanostructures are directly co‐deposited from a wild‐type M13 (or) two different engineered M13 mixed electrolytes onto the ITO electrodes. The engineered M13 with 4E peptides could specifically nucleate Pt precursor thereby enables the efficient growth of teeth‐like structures at the ITO electrode. The electrocatalytic activity of the resulting electrocatalyst toward methanol oxidation in alkaline medium was investigated and found enhanced mass activity (0.321 A/mg_Pt) relative to the catalyst prepared from wild‐type M13, Y3E peptides engineered M13 and without M13. Our novel electrocatalyst fabrication can be extended to other metal and metal oxides and its application might be useful to develop novel clean and green energy generating and storage materials.     

碳酸乙烯酯选择加氢合成甲醇与乙二醇高效稳定Cu/SiO2催化剂研究

CO2作为重要的碳氧资源, 具有来源丰富、价格低廉、安全等突出优点. 近年来, 由于蕴含的巨大利用潜力,CO2间接利用制备基础化学品、能源燃料对于可持续制备大宗化工品中具有重要研究意义, 日益受到研究者和工业界的广泛重视.甲醇与乙二醇是化学工业中的两种重要大宗原料. 甲醇不仅是重要的有机化工原料、清洁环保的液体燃料, 同时也是氢气和能量储存的良好载体. 乙二醇作为一种重要的有机化工原料, 在聚酯等领域具有广泛应用.CO2经碳酸乙烯酯氢解制备甲醇/乙二醇是典型的原子经济反应, 对资源、能源和环境的可持续发展具有重要意义. 需要指出的是,CO2与环氧乙烷环加成制备碳酸乙烯酯已具备成熟的工业化技术. 因此, 该路线研究重点在于发展碳酸乙烯酯选择加氢联产甲醇和乙二醇高效稳定的催化体系. 近年来, 铜基多相催化剂催化碳酸乙烯酯加氢联产甲醇乙二醇得到了广泛重视. 由于铜基催化剂存在活性较低、高温易失活等问题, 开发高效且具有良好稳定性的铜基催化剂是目前碳酸乙烯酯加氢研究重点.本文针对碳酸乙烯酯选择氢解合成甲醇乙二醇新型铜基催化体系构建和构效关系研究, 采用硅溶胶蒸氨法制备高分散 Cu/SiO2过程中引入多羟基β-环糊精修饰催化剂前驱体的合成策略, 并通过惰性气体中煅烧后的积碳有效抑制活性铜物种的团聚, 获得了β-环糊精改性的 Cu/SiO2催化剂. 通过 N2吸脱附、XRD、N2O 滴定、H2-TPR、TEM 和 XPS 等系统表征,发现β-环糊精可有效调控催化剂结构和表面不同价态活性铜物种分布. 碳酸乙烯酯加氢性能评价结果表明引入适量β-环糊精的 5β-25%Cu/SiO2具有较优催化活性, 乙二醇选择性 98.8% 和甲醇选择性 71.6%, 且相应的催化活性可达 1178 mgEC gcat-1h-1. 高活性的原因很可能归因于不同价态 Cu0与 Cu+物种协同催化作用及适宜的 Cu+/(Cu0+Cu+) 比例. 结合密度泛函理论模拟计算, 我们提出了 Cu0促进氢气解离、Cu+吸附活化碳酸乙烯酯分子中酯羰基的反应机理. 催化剂重复使用和表征结果表明, 5β-25%Cu/SiO2具有良好的稳定性, 使用前后铜粒子大小和铜物种分布几乎未发生明显变化. 本文为解决铜基催化剂高温易烧结等难题提供了简单有效的活性铜物种稳定化方法, 并为CO2经碳酸乙烯酯绿色合成甲醇、乙二醇高效稳定铜基催化新体系的构筑提供了有益借鉴.     

通过SAPO-34分子筛笼中引入金属物种提升甲醇制烯烃反应中乙烯选择性

低碳烯烃(乙烯、丙烯)是化学工业极其重要的基本原料.甲醇制烯烃(MTO)反应是重要的烯烃生产石油替代路线.其中,磷酸硅铝类SAPO-34分子筛在MTO反应中表现出优异的低碳烯烃选择性.与丙烯相比,乙烯具有更高的经济附加值,因此提升MTO反应中乙烯的选择性有着重要的意义.本文采用传统离子交换法(CIE)、模板辅助离子引入法(TII)和醇相离子交换法(AIE)对SAPO-34分子筛进行金属Zn、Cu改性,利用多种表征手段对金属Zn、Cu改性SAPO-34分子筛的物理结构、化学组成、金属物种状态与分布、酸性及扩散性质等进行表征.首先,对金属Zn、Cu改性SAPO-34分子筛的物理结构和化学组成进行分析.X射线衍射表明,相比AIE法,CIE法和TII法改性基本保持SAPO-34分子筛的结晶度.X射线荧光分析表明,相比Co、Ni,金属Zn、Cu更易引入SAPO-34分子筛.N2物理吸附-脱附表明,CIE法改性能够保持SAPO-34分子筛的BET比表面积和微孔孔容.其次,考察了金属Zn、Cu改性SAPO-34分子筛中金属物种的状态.氢气-程序升温还原(H2-TPR)和X射线光电子能谱(XPS)结果表明,Zn物种主要以孤立态的Zn2+阳离子形式存在.H2-TPR、XPS、紫外-可见光谱和电子顺磁共振谱结果表明,Cu物种主要以孤立态的Cu2+阳离子以及部分CuO形式存在.继而对金属Zn、Cu改性SAPO-34分子筛中金属物种的分布进行表征.XPS表明,Zn阳离子改性的SAPO-34表层富硅、富Zn,呈类核壳结构;XPS和扫描式电镜-能量色散X射线光谱结果表明,Cu物种在Cu改性SAPO-34分子筛中均匀分布.进一步研究了金属Zn、Cu改性SAPO-34分子筛中酸性的变化.氨气-程序升温脱附和核磁共振氢谱结果表明,Zn、Cu改性SAPO-34酸性位点的酸量降低.最后,对金属Zn、Cu改性SAPO-34分子筛的扩散性质进行分析.智能重量分析表明,Zn、Cu阳离子的引入降低探针分子(乙烷、丙烷)的扩散系数,推断Zn、Cu阳离子的引入增加对MTO反应产物的扩散限制.热重表明,Zn阳离子改性SAPO-34分子筛反应初期积炭量略微增加.综上所述,Zn阳离子改性SAPO-34催化剂表层富硅、富Zn,呈现类核壳结构.Zn阳离子的引入增加对MTO反应产物的扩散限制,而且Zn阳离子的引入促进MTO反应初始阶段的碳沉积.因此,Zn阳离子改性SAPO-34分子筛显著增加MTO反应产物的扩散限制,对分子尺寸较大的反应产物的扩散限制更为明显,从而提高MTO反应初始阶段的乙烯选择性,增大乙烯/丙烯比.     

Production of hydrogen by oxidative steam reforming of methanol over Cu/SiO2 catalysts

Selective production of hydrogen by oxidative steam reforming of methanol (OSRM) was studied over Cu/SiO₂ catalyst using fixed bed flow reactor. Textural and structural properties of the catalyst were analyzed by various instrumental methods. TPR analysis illustrates that the reduction temperature peak was observed between 510?K and 532?K at various copper loadings and calcination temperatures and the peaks shifted to higher temperature with increasing copper loading and calcination temperature. The XRD and XPS analysis demonstrates that the copper existed in different oxidation states at different conditions: Cu₂O, Cu⁰, CuO and Cu(OH)₂ in uncalcined sample; CuO in calcined sample: Cu₂O and metallic Cu after reduction at 600?K and Cu⁰ and CuO after catalytic test. TEM analysis reveals that at various copper loadings, the copper particle size is in the range between 3.0?nm and 3.8?nm. The Cu particle size after catalytic test increased from 3.6 to 4.8?nm, which is due to the formation of oxides of copper as evidenced from XRD and XPS analysis. The catalytic performance at various Cu loadings shows that with increasing Cu loading from 4.7 to 17.3?wt%, the activity increases and thereafter it decreases. Effect of calcination shows that the sample calcined at 673?K exhibited high activity. The O₂/CH₃OH and H₂O/CH₃OH molar ratios play important role in reaction rate and product distribution. The optimum molar ratios of O₂/CH₃OH and H₂O/CH₃OH are 0.25 and 0.1, respectively. When the reaction temperature varied from 473 to 548?K, the methanol conversion and H₂ production rate are in the range of 21.9–97.5% and 1.2–300.9?mmol?kg^?1?s^?1, respectively. The CO selectivity is negligible at these temperatures. Under the optimum conditions (17.3?wt%, Cu/SiO₂; calcination temperature 673?K; 0.25 O₂/CH₃OH molar ratio, 0.5 H₂O/CH₃OH molar ratio and reaction temperature 548?K), the maximum hydrogen yield obtained was 2.45?mol of hydrogen per mole of methanol. The time on stream stability test showed that the Cu/SiO₂ catalyst is quite stable for 48?h.
