摘要:

过氧化氢(H2O2)是一种绿色化工原料和环境友好氧化剂.目前,超过98%的H2O2是通过蒽醌法生产.蒽醌法主要包括2-乙基蒽醌氢化生成2-乙基氢蒽醌和2-乙基氢蒽醌氧化生成2-乙基蒽醌和H2O2的过程.其中,2-乙基蒽醌氢化是关键步骤.在氢化过程中,生成的2-乙基氢蒽醌和四氢-2-乙基氢蒽醌是目标产物,同时生成许多副产物.目前,Pd颗粒催化剂是广泛使用的催化剂,但是蒽醌氢化过程中,质量传递是主要的控制因素.与颗粒催化剂对比,整体式催化剂可以减弱整个反应的内外扩散,提高反应速率.很多研究结果显示,整体式催化剂的传质优于颗粒催化剂,可以提高催化效率.近期许多研究显示,双金属颗粒催化剂在很多氢化反应中体现出优异的催化性能.本工作制备了双金属整体式催化剂,考察了其在蒽醌氢化过程中的催化性能.
首先,通过浸渍法制备了4种双金属整体式催化剂Pd-M/SiO2/COR (M=Ni,Fe,Mn和Cu)以及Pd/SiO2/COR和Ni/SiO2/COR两种单金属整体式催化剂.催化活性结果显示,Ni/SiO2/COR的H2O2产量低于Pd/SiO2/COR,而且在700℃还原的Pd-Ni/SiO2/COR整体式催化剂在Pd/M=2时取得了最高选择性(95.3%)和H2O2产量(7.5g/L).然后,考察了金属负载量的影响.结果显示,在金属负载量低于0.4%时,随着金属负载量增加,选择性和H2O2产量增加,在金属负载量高于0.4%时,随着金属负载量增加,选择性和H2O2产量降低.
TEM结果表明,添加第二种金属后,双金属整体式催化剂颗粒尺寸变小,分布更均匀.EDS结果显示,双金属形成了合金.H2-TPR结果显示,随着Pd/M比率增加,还原温度降低,说明Pd有助于第二种金属氧化物的还原.这可能是由于Pd表面的氢溢流到第二种金属(Ni,Fe,Mn和Cu)表面.此外,文献结果表明,合金的形成能够抑制PdH的形成.本工作表明添加第二种金属(Ni,Fe,Mn和Cu)后,PdH的峰强度减弱或者峰消失,也说明形成了合金.XPS结果显示,添加第二种金属后,在336.3±0.1和341.4±0.1eV出现了新的Pd3d5/2和Pd3d3/2峰,说明形成了合金.H2-O2滴定结果表明,Pd-Ni/SiO2/COR的Pd分散度和Pd比表面积都高于其他双金属催化剂,说明第二种金属Ni更有利于促进Pd的分散,减弱颗粒集聚,揭示了Q#8197;Pd和Ni之间强烈的相互作用.
DFT计算结果显示,Pd3M1(M=Ni,Fe,Mn和Cu)双金属整体式催化剂和2-乙基蒽醌之间的结合能低于Pd/SiO2/COR和2-乙基蒽醌之间的结合能,但是Pd3M1(M=Ni,Fe和Mn)双金属催化剂和2-乙基氢蒽醌之间的结合能减小得很少,这可能是由于2-乙基蒽醌的C=O和第二种金属之间具有强烈相互作用的缘故.Pd3Cu1双金属催化剂和2-乙基氢蒽醌之间的结合能减小很多,主要是由于Pd3Cu1表面不利于2-乙基氢蒽醌的吸附.
因此,Pd-Ni/SiO2/COR比Pd/SiO2/COR,Ni/SiO2/COR和其他的双金属整体式催化剂具有更高的选择性和H2O2产量,主要是由于合金的形成以及2-乙基氢蒽醌的C=O双键和2-乙基氢蒽醌强烈的相互作用.

Abstract:

We studied the hydrogenation of 2-ethylanthraquinone (eAQ) over Pd/SiO2/COR (COR=cordierite) monometallic and Pd-M/SiO2/COR (M=Ni, Fe, Mn, and Cu) bimetallic monolithic catalysts, which were prepared by the co-impregnation method. Detailed investigations showed that the particle sizes and structures of the Pd-M (M=Ni, Fe, Mn, and Cu) bimetallic monolithic catalysts were greatly affected by the second metal M and the mass ratio of Pd to the second metal M. By virtue of the small particle size and the strong interaction between Pd and Ni of Pd-Ni alloy, Pd-Ni bimetallic monolithic catalysts with the mass ratio of Pd/Ni=2 achieved the highest H2O2 yield (7.5 g/L) and selectivity (95.3%). Moreover, density functional theory calculations were performed for eAQ adsorption to gain a better mechanistic understanding of the molecule-surface interactions between eAQ and the Pd(1 1 1) or PdM(1 1 1) (M=Ni, Fe, Mn, and Cu) surfaces. It was found that the high activity of the bimetallic Pd-Ni catalyst was a result of strong chemisorption between Pd3Ni1 (1 1 1) and the carbonyl group of eAQ.
