The influence of the hydrogen origin at the surface of Mo suboxide during the deoxygenation of carboxylic acid

This work investigates the reactivity of a molybdenum suboxide in the deoxygenation of benzoic acid in the presence of hydrogen or propylene. Major differences are highlighted with Mo₈O₂₃ as the active phase. When the reaction is performed in the presence of hydrogen as the reductant, benzoic acid is converted to benzaldehyde, toluene and benzene. If molecular hydrogen is replaced by propylene as a weaker reductant, the only product formed during the reaction is benzaldehyde. It is demonstrated that, in absence of molecular hydrogen in the reaction mixture, a large amount of benzoic acid remains irreversibly adsorbed on the catalyst surface. The comparison of the two series of catalytic tests allows to somehow discriminate how the nature and the mobility of the hydrogen atoms involved in the reaction dictate the behaviour of the catalyst.     

ZnZr/HZSM-5双功能催化剂在合成气与苯烷基化反应中的催化性能

将系列锌锆金属氧化物与HZSM-5分子筛耦合制备成双功能复合催化剂,并将其应用于合成气与苯烷基化反应。研究结果表明,ZnO是合成甲醇的主要活性组分,ZrO₂的加入能够促进ZnO分散,同时其表面具有的氧空位可促进CO的活化,二者结合方式显著影响反应活性。SEM、XPS、CO-TPD等表征结果表明,ZnO与ZrO₂相结合不仅能够提高ZnO的分散度,而且能调控氧化物表面的氧空位浓度,当二者形成固溶体时,锌在氧化锆中的分散度最大,表面氧空位浓度最高,CO吸附量最大,催化活性最高。锌锆结合方式一定时,锌含量是影响催化活性的另一重要因素,n(Zr)/n(Zn)=2的锌锆固溶体与HZSM-5以质量比1∶2耦合表现出最高的催化活性,CO和苯的转化率为34.65%和35.82%时,甲苯和二甲苯的总选择性高达85.24%。     

Relationship between the formation of surface species and catalyst deactivation during the gas-phase photocatalytic oxidation of toluene

Various partial oxidation products were identified on the surface of TiO₂ and an 8% SiO₂–TiO₂ binary catalyst used for the photocatalytic oxidation of gas-phase toluene. Using in situ FTIR spectroscopy, benzaldehyde and benzoic acid were identified on the surface of the deactivated photocatalysts. Additional GC/MS analysis of methanol-extracted surface species confirmed the presence of benzaldehyde and benzoic acid and detected small concentrations of benzyl alcohol. Apparently, benzaldehyde is the main partial oxidation product that is further oxidized to benzoic acid. Benzoic acid is strongly adsorbed on the surface of the catalyst. There seems to be a correlation between the accumulation of benzoic acid on the surface and catalyst deactivation. The presence of gas-phase water in the reactive mixture seems to retard the formation of benzoic acid.

The SiO₂–TiO₂ photocatalyst is more active and appears to deactivate slower than TiO₂. This binary oxide is photocatalytically active even in the absence of gas-phase oxygen. It also seems to have a higher toluene adsorption capacity than TiO₂. The acidity of the different oxides was examined using FTIR spectroscopy of adsorbed pyridine. The results indicate that no pure metal oxide displays Brønsted acidity but when SiO₂ is cofumed with TiO₂, Brønsted acidity of intermediate strength is generated. The generation of new surface sites may be responsible for the increased activity. The mechanism of this promotion effect is not clearly understood and further studies are required to elucidate it.     

铈锆复合氧化物催化HCl氧化中相互作用机制

采用浸渍法制备了不同负载量的ZrO₂/CeO₂·（xZr/Ce）和CeO₂/ZrO₂·（yCe/Zr）两组催化剂。并采用XRD、Raman、N₂-Sorption、TEM和H₂-TPR等手段对xZr/Ce和yCe/Zr的结构和性质进行表征,并结合HCl催化氧化活性研究CeO₂与ZrO₂在反应体系中的相互作用。结果显示,CeO₂表面掺杂适量的Zr⁴⁺可以增加xZr/Ce表面氧空位浓度,提高其HCl氧化反应活性;但当CeO₂表面掺杂过量的Zr⁴⁺,Zr元素会以ZrO₂的形式存在于xZr/Ce表面,覆盖氧空位,降低了xZr/Ce的反应活性。对于yCe/Zr催化剂,ZrO₂表面高分散的CeO₂有利于催化活性的提高,但ZrO₂表层负载的CeO₂对催化活性的贡献具有阈值,当CeO₂负载量超过10%后,额外增加的铈物种对催化活性已无显著促进作用;对比发现xZr/Ce的氧空位主要来自于铈锆固溶体,yCe/Zr的氧空位主要来自于高分散的CeO₂,由铈锆固溶体产生的氧空位对活性提升更有利;与纯组分CeO₂相比,xZr/Ce与yCe/Zr两组催化剂在苛刻条件下的长期稳定性测试中均表现出高反应稳定性。     

高比表面积二氧化锆的合成及其催化应用

二氧化锆（ZrO₂）是一种优异的催化材料，同时具有表面酸碱性，易产生氧空位，耐高温、抗腐蚀，机械强度高。然而传统方法合成的二氧化锆比表面积和孔容较小，限制了其应用。本文介绍了近年来高比表面积多孔二氧化锆的合成方法和技术，包括模板法、MOF热解法、静电纺丝等以及提高其热稳定性的措施，同时简述了其在催化领域的应用。研究表明，此类高比表面积的二氧化锆可以提高负载金属分散度，加强金属-载体相互作用，进而提高催化剂活性和稳定性，同时其粒径大小、形貌、孔结构均会影响其催化性能。高效低成本合成热稳定的高比表面积二氧化锆并对对其形貌和结构进行精准调控，将使其未来具有更广的催化应用前景。     

Hydrogen production by oxidative methanol reforming on Pd/ZnO: Catalyst preparation and supporting materials

Pd and Pd–Zn alloy were supported on various supporting materials using impregnation, co-precipitation and microemulsion methods, and their catalytic performances in oxidative methanol reforming (OMR) were investigated. Pd/ZnO exhibited much higher selectivity than either Pd/Al₂O₃ or Pd/ZrO₂ in the OMR for hydrogen production. This was attributed to the presence of Pd–Zn alloy on the ZnO support. Elemental Pd on Al₂O₃ or ZrO₂ promotes methanol decomposition reaction and increases CO formation. Using a microemulsion method, a highly selective Pd/ZnO can be obtained with much lower Pd loading than that in samples prepared by co-precipitation. Modification of Al₂O₃ with ZnO produced a ZnAl₂O₄ phase, which was found to be a good support for the Pd/ZnO catalyst. Highly active and selective Pd/ZnO/ZnAl₂O₄ catalysts for the OMR reaction, containing much lower Pd loadings have been developed by impregnation of the supports with an aqueous solution of Pd(NO₃)₂ + Zn(NO₃)₂.

Cu基CO2合成甲醇催化剂载体的研究进展

氧化物载体与Cu之间的相互作用、CO₂的活化位点、表面反应机理、表面反应路径直接影响CO₂催化加氢的产物分布。因此,探明不同金属–载体的相互作用和界面微观结构至关重要。本文综述了CO₂催化加氢合成甲醇Cu基催化剂载体的研究现状,重点综述了ZnO、ZrO₂、CeO₂、TiO₂这4种具有氧空位的载体,并简单总结了SiO₂、Al₂O₃、Zn-Zr、Ce-Zr、钙钛矿等其他氧化物载体。Cu与ZnO之间的强金属相互作用（SMSI）所形成的Cu/ZnO_x是主要的活性位点,对其微观结构与反应机理研究得较为充分;对Cu/ZrO₂的研究主要集中在ZrO₂晶相的影响,不同的研究者所获得的结论尚存在争议;对Cu/CeO₂的机理研究停留在反向CeO₂/Cu(111)模型表面,负载型催化剂上不同晶面的CeO₂与Cu的相互作用强度不同,并影响反应性能;Cu/TiO₂中TiO₂的影响因素较多,如晶型、晶面等,目前对其研究尚不全面。最后,本文分析并展望了CO₂加氢制甲醇催化剂载体的研究方向,未来将采用与实际催化剂一致的正向模型表面进行基础研究,并基于原位表征手段对反应过程中催化剂的结构变化进行探索,最终设计高效、低成本的多元复合物载体的Cu基催化剂。

Methane combustion over supported palladium catalysts I. Reactivity and active phase

The performance of Al₂O₃, ZrO₂ and ZrO₂ stabilized with SiO₂ (ZrO₂-s) supported palladium catalysts for the methane combustion was studied between 473 and 873 K. The nature of the surface species of palladium catalysts under reaction conditions were detected by FT-IR and microcalorimetry of CO adsorbed. The different behavior of palladium catalysts under reaction conditions is attributed to support effects associated to differences in thermal conductivity and oxygen mobility of supports. Prereduction of the catalysts enhances their activity. Under reaction conditions, the prereduced sample becomes partially oxidized by preferential adsorption/reaction of oxygen both on Pd (1 1 1) planes and on the sites that can multibondedly adsorb CO. The reconstruction of the metallic particles and the formation of PdO_x (0<x≤1) phase were directly observed by FT-IR and microcalorimetry of adsorbed CO. Combination of different characterization techniques with reaction results suggests that a mixed phase, Pd⁰/PdO_x, is the most active phase for methane combustion, and that a redox mechanism may occur on this phase.

Active sites in Cu/ZnO/ZrO2 catalysts for methanol synthesis from CO/H2

Among various Cu/ZnO/ZrO₂ catalysts with the Cu/Zn ratio of 3/7, the one with 15 wt.% of ZrO₂ obtains the best activity for methanol synthesis by hydrogenation of CO. The TPR, TPO and XPS analyses reveal that a new copper oxide phase is formed in the calcined Cu/ZnO/ZrO₂ catalysts by the dissolution of zirconium ions in copper oxide. In addition, the Cu/ZnO/ZrO₂ catalyst with 15 wt.% of ZrO₂ turns out to contain the largest amount of the new copper oxide phase. When the Cu/ZnO/ZrO₂ catalysts is reduced, the Cu²⁺ species present in the ZrO₂ lattice is transformed to Cu⁺ species. This leads to the speculation that the addition of ZrO₂ to Cu/ZnO catalysts gives rise to the formation of Cu⁺ species, which is related to the methanol synthesis activity of Cu/ZnO/ZrO₂ catalyst in addition to Cu metal particles. Consequently, the ratio of Cu⁺/Cu⁰ is an important factor for the specific activity of Cu/ZnO/ZrO₂ catalyst for methanol synthesis.     

Methane steam reforming over Ni/Ce–ZrO2 catalyst: Influences of Ce–ZrO2 support on reactivity, resistance toward carbon formation, and intrinsic reaction kinetics

Ni/Ce–ZrO₂ showed good methane steam reforming performance in term of stability toward the deactivation by carbon deposition. It was first observed that the catalyst with Ce/Zr ratio of 3/1 showed the best activity among Ni/Ce–ZrO₂ samples with the Ce/Zr ratios of 1/0, 1/1, 1/3, and 3/1. Temperature-programmed oxidation (TPO) experiments indicated the excellent resistance toward carbon formation for this catalyst, compared to conventional Ni/Al₂O₃; the requirement of inlet H₂O/CH₄ to operate without the formation of carbon species is much lower. These benefits are related to the high oxygen storage capacity (OSC) of Ce–ZrO₂. During the steam reforming process, in addition to the reactions on Ni surface (*), the redox reactions between the gaseous components present in the system and the lattice oxygen (O_x) on Ce–ZrO₂ surface also take place. Among these reactions, the redox reactions between the high carbon formation potential compounds (CH₄, CH_x-*n and CO) and the lattice oxygen (O_x) can prevent the formation of carbon species from the methane decomposition and Boudard reactions, even at low inlet H₂O/CH₄ ratio (1.0/1.0).

Regarding the intrinsic kinetic studies in the present work, the reaction order in methane over Ni/Ce–ZrO₂ was observed to be approximately 1.0 in all conditions. The dependence of steam on the rate was non-monotonic, whereas addition of oxygen as an autothermal reforming promoted the rate but reduced CO and H₂ production selectivities. The addition of a small amount of hydrogen increased the conversion of methane, however, this positive effect became less pronounced and the methane conversion was eventually inhibited when high hydrogen concentration was added. Ni/Ce–ZrO₂ showed significantly stronger negative impact of hydrogen than Ni/Al₂O₃. The redox mechanism on ceria proposed by Otsuka et al. [K. Otsuka, T. Ushiyama, I. Yamanaka, Chem. Lett. (1993) 1517; K. Otsuka, M. Hatano, A. Morikawa, J. Catal. 79 (1983) 493; K. Otsuka, M. Hatano, A. Morikawa, Inorg. Chim. Acta 109 (1985) 193] can explain this high inhibition.     

修饰的CuO/Fe2O3水煤气变换催化剂的性能测试与表征

ZrO₂是一种高熔点金属氧化物,同时具有弱酸性和弱碱性以及氧化性与还原性,具有p型半导体性质,易产生氧空穴,是理想的催化材料。通过添加不同质量分数的ZrO₂(0~5%) 作为助剂,采用分步沉淀法制备系列CuO/Fe₂O₃-ZrO₂催化剂,通过XRD、N₂物理吸附-脱附、H₂-TPR和CO₂-TPD等表征技术,考察ZrO₂助剂对CuO/Fe₂O₃水煤气变换催化剂催化性能的影响。结果表明,适量ZrO₂（质量分数1%）的添加,削弱了CuFe₂O₄中铜铁物种之间的协同作用,增加了催化剂中可被还原的铜物种的数量,形成较多的弱碱性位点,有利于增加活性中心铜的数量,具有较好的水煤气变换反应活性和热稳定性。     

CO oxidation on Pd/CeO2–ZrO2 catalysts

The promotive effects of cerium oxide on commercial three-way catalysts (TWCs) for purification of motor exhaust gases have been widely investigated in recent years. This work shows the cooperative effects of CeO₂–Pd on the kinetics of CO oxidation over Pd/CeO₂–ZrO₂. Under reducing-to-moderately oxidizing conditions, a zero-order O₂ pressure dependence is found which can be interpreted on the basis of a mechanism involving a reaction between CO adsorbed on Pd and surface oxygen from the support. The high oxygen-exchange capability of the CeO₂–ZrO₂ support, as determined from temperature-programmed reduction/oxygen uptake measurements is suggested as being responsible for such a catalytic behavior.

Influence of Solvent on Reaction Path to Synthesis of Methyl N-Phenyl Carbamate from Aniline,CO2 and Methanol

Methyl N-phenyl carbamate （MPC）, an important organic chemical, can be synthesized from aniline, CO2 and methanol. Catalyst Cu-Fe/ZrO2-SiO2 was first prepared and its catalytic performance for MPC synthesis was evaluated. Then the influence of solvent on the reaction path of MPC synthesis was investigated. It is found that the reaction intermediate is different with acetonitrile or methanol as a solvent. With acetonitrile as a solvent, the synthesis of MPC follows the reaction path with diphenyl urea as the intermediate, while with methanol as a solvent the reaction occurs via the reaction path with dimethyl carbonate as the intermediate. The catalytic mecha-nism of cooperative catalysis comprising metal sites, Lewis acid sites and Lewis base sites is proposed according to different reaction intermediates.
