Description

Catalyst of carbon-coated transition metal oxide, preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of catalysts, in particular to a carbon-coated transition metal oxide catalyst, and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
The transition metal oxide has excellent catalytic performance and photoelectromagnetic performance, and is a research hot spot in the field of inorganic materials. The carbon material has good conductivity, good chemical/electrochemical stability and high structural strength. The carbon material is used for coating the nano particles of the transition metal oxide, so that the conductivity and the stability of the nano material can be improved, and the limited domain of the nano particles is not easy to agglomerate. In recent years, carbon-coated transition metal oxide nano materials have shown good application prospects in the fields of electrocatalysis, supercapacitor materials, lithium ion battery anode materials, bioengineering and the like.
In general, carbon-coated nano-materials have small particles, are powdery, and have poor self-formability. However, in industrial applications, particularly in the case of fixed bed processes, not only are certain activities and selectivities required for the catalysts, but also certain properties such as particle size and mechanical strength are required. If the catalyst is not strong enough and disintegrated and pulverized, the catalyst is easy to carry loss or block the device in the reaction process, the pressure drop of the catalyst bed is greatly increased, and even the device is forced to stop. Therefore, the carbon-coated nano material needs to be subjected to forming treatment to meet the industrial reaction requirements of compressive strength, pressure drop after filling, stability and the like. The molding process is a process of forming solid particles having a certain size, shape and mechanical strength by mutually aggregating raw materials such as a catalyst raw powder and a molding aid by an external force. The molding process can have an effect on the activity, strength and service life of the catalyst to a certain extent. How to improve the strength and not influence the activity as much as possible is the research focus of the carbon-coated nano material forming method.
N 2 O is an important greenhouse gas, and its Global Warming Potential (GWP) is CO 2 310 times of CH 4 21 times of (2); in addition, N 2 The average life of O in the atmosphere is about 150 years, also known as NO in the stratosphere x The main source of the composition is not only capable of seriously destroying the ozone layer, but also has strong greenhouse effect.
The domestic adipic acid production mainly adopts a cyclohexanol nitric acid oxidation method, and the cyclohexanol is subjected to nitric acid oxidation to produce adipic acid, the technology of the method is mature, the product yield and purity are relatively high, but the nitric acid consumption is large, and a large amount of N is produced in the reaction process 2 O, and the tail gas discharged in the production process is concentrated, the wave quantity is large, and the concentration is high (36% -40%). At present, 15 ten thousand tons of adipic acid and N are produced annually by adopting a cyclohexanol nitric acid oxidation method 2 The annual discharge of O can reach 4.5 ten thousand tons. Therefore, the tail gas of the adipic acid purifying device can effectively control and eliminate N 2 O has become a research hotspot in the field of environmental catalysis today.
The direct catalytic decomposition method can decompose N 2 O is decomposed into nitrogen and oxygen to eliminate N 2 O is the most effective and clean technique. Wherein, the catalyst is the technical core of the direct catalytic decomposition method. Decomposition N reported in the current study 2 The catalyst of O mainly comprises a noble metal catalyst, an ion-exchange molecular sieve catalyst and a transition metal oxide catalyst. Noble metal catalysts (e.g., rh and Ru) on N 2 The O catalytic decomposition has higher low-temperature catalytic activity (the temperature is 250-350 ℃ and N can be efficiently decomposed) 2 O), the expensive price limits the large-scale use of noble metal catalysts. Molecular sieve-type catalysts and transition metal oxide catalysts are significantly less expensive than noble metals, but currently these two types of catalysts are relatively more expensive than noble metals for N 2 O catalytic decompositionThe activity of the catalyst is low, and the high-efficiency decomposition temperature is 450-550 ℃. Thus, new materials catalyst pair N was developed that are new non-noble metals, low cost and efficient 2 The emission reduction of O has important significance.

The composite material formed by coating transition metal oxide nano particles with the graphitized carbon film is spherical or spheroidic.
The term "graphitized carbon film" refers to a thin film structure composed mainly of graphitized carbon.
The term "carbon element content determined by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy" refers to the relative content of carbon elements on the surface of a material, which is measured by performing element quantitative analysis by using an X-ray photoelectron spectrometer as an analysis tool.
The term "carbon element content determined in elemental analysis" refers to the relative content of total carbon elements of a material as measured by elemental quantitative analysis using an elemental analyzer as an analysis tool.
The invention provides a catalyst of carbon-coated transition metal oxide, which comprises a carrier and an active component loaded on the carrier, wherein the active component is a nano composite material of graphite carbon-coated transition metal oxide.
According to the present invention, the kind of the transition metal is not particularly limited, and those of the existing graphitic carbon-coated transition metal composite materials can be used in the present invention. For example, the transition metal oxide may be selected from one or more of oxides of group VIII, group VIB, group IB, and group IIB metals; more specifically, one or more of the oxides of iron, cobalt, nickel, and optionally one or more of the oxides of aluminum, copper, zinc, chromium, molybdenum, tungsten may be selected.
According to the invention, the nanocomposite comprises a nuclear membrane structure having an outer membrane, which is a graphitized carbon membrane, and an inner core comprising transition metal oxide nanoparticles.
According to the present invention, the catalyst is a supported catalyst using a nanocomposite material of a graphitic carbon-coated transition metal oxide as an active component, and in general, the nanocomposite material of a graphitic carbon-coated transition metal oxide includes a nuclear membrane structure having an intact outer membrane layer and an inner core layer, the outer membrane is mainly composed of a graphitized carbon membrane, and the graphitized carbon membrane is a thin membrane structure mainly composed of graphitized carbon, and is completely or substantially completely coated on the surface of the transition metal oxide nanoparticle, and in general, it is quite difficult to completely coat the graphitic carbon outside the transition metal oxide. The inventor of the invention surprisingly found that, although the carbon content of the film layer is relatively small, the performance, especially the catalytic performance, of the whole material is greatly improved, and particularly, the film layer can not only generate a certain limiting effect, effectively avoid the aggregation and growth of the inner core nano particles, ensure that the catalytic activity of the composite material is stable, but also synergistically increase the catalytic activity of the whole composite material, and compared with the catalytic activity of a pure transition metal oxide without a graphite carbon film, the catalytic activity of the composite material is obviously improved. The nanocomposite with good catalytic activity is used as an active component and is loaded on a carrier through a specific process, so that the catalyst has high mechanical strength, can be suitable for industrial application requirements, can well maintain the catalytic performance of the active component, and has good application prospect.
In some embodiments, the transition metal oxide content is 40% to 90%, e.g., 40%, 43%, 50%, 55%, 57%, 67%, 79%, 80%, 85%, etc., and the support content is 10% to 60%, e.g., 10%, 16%, 22%, 31%, 35%, 40%, 50%, 60%, etc., based on the mass of the catalyst. The carbon content is not more than 2% of the catalyst, for example, 1%, 0.8%, 0.5%, 0.3%, 0.2%, 0.1%, etc.
In some embodiments, the ratio of elemental carbon determined by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy to elemental carbon content determined by elemental analysis in the catalyst of the present invention is not less than 10 by mass ratio. As described above, the carbon element content determined by the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy refers to the relative content of carbon element on the surface of the material measured by performing elemental quantitative analysis using the X-ray photoelectron spectrometer as an analysis tool. The carbon element content determined in the elemental analysis refers to the relative content of the total carbon element of the material measured by elemental quantitative analysis using an elemental analyzer as an analysis tool. When the ratio of the carbon element determined by the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy to the carbon element content determined by the elemental analysis is larger, it is shown that most of carbon is concentrated on the surface of the material in the whole catalyst, a carbon film layer is formed, and the nuclear film structure is formed.
In some embodiments, the catalyst of the invention is located at 1580cm in the Raman spectrum -1 G peak intensity in the vicinity and at 1320cm -1 The ratio of nearby D peak intensities is greater than 2. As known to those skilled in the art, the D peak and the G peak are Raman characteristic peaks of C atom crystals, the D peak represents a defect of a carbon atom lattice, and the G peak represents a C atom sp 2 Hybrid in-plane stretching vibration. It will be appreciated that a greater ratio of G-peak intensity to D-peak intensity indicates that more graphitic carbon is present in the catalyst than amorphous carbon. That is, the carbon element in the catalyst of the present invention exists mainly in the form of graphitic carbon. The graphite carbon has better oxidation resistance, and can synergistically increase catalytic activity with transition metal oxide nano particles of the inner core, thereby improving the performance of the whole catalyst.
In some embodiments, the catalyst of the invention has a Raman spectrum located only at 1580cm -1 G peak in the vicinity, not located at 1320cm -1 A nearby D peak.
According to the invention, the aforementioned support may be alumina and/or silica. The catalyst has a pore structure, and in some embodiments, the specific surface area of the catalyst of the present invention is 90m 2 /g~160m 2 Per gram, pore volume of 0.12cm 3 /g~0.18cm 3 And/g, the crushing strength is 120N/cm-160N/cm.
In the present invention, the specific surface area, pore volume and crush strength ranges of the catalyst obtained by different binders (such as alumina sol, silica sol, pseudo-boehmite, etc.) and different molding conditions (such as pressure) and molding modes (tabletting, extruding and granulating) are greatly different, so the present invention is not limited to this, and the specific surface area, pore volume and crush strength ranges can be adjusted according to the actual operating conditions and the requirements for catalyst strength, etc.
The invention also provides a preparation method of the catalyst, which comprises the following steps: providing a carbon-coated transition metal nanocomposite; oxygen treatment is carried out on the carbon-coated transition metal nanocomposite material to obtain a carbon-coated transition metal oxide nanocomposite material; and (3) carrying out molding treatment on the nano composite material of the carbon-coated transition metal oxide to obtain the catalyst.
The preparation of the catalyst is described in detail below.
First, a carbon-coated transition metal nanocomposite is provided. The carbon-coated transition metal nanocomposite can be prepared by an existing method, and can also be obtained by commercial purchase. Preferably prepared by the following method:
mixing a transition metal-containing compound and carboxylic acid in a solvent to form a homogeneous solution; removing the solvent in the homogeneous solution to obtain a precursor; and pyrolyzing the precursor in inert atmosphere or reducing atmosphere to obtain the carbon-coated transition metal nanocomposite.
Specifically, the precursor is a water-soluble mixture, which is a nickel-containing water-soluble mixture obtained by dissolving a transition metal-containing compound and a carboxylic acid in a solvent such as water, ethanol, or the like into a homogeneous solution, and then directly evaporating the solvent. The aforementioned temperature and process of evaporating the solvent may be any available prior art technique, for example, spray drying at 80-120 ℃, or drying in an oven.
In some embodiments, the transition metal-containing compound is selected from one or more of a soluble organic acid salt, a basic carbonate, a hydroxide, and an oxide of a transition metal.
According to the present invention, the kind of the carboxylic acid is not particularly limited, and carboxylic acids used in such a method for producing a carbon-coated transition metal composite material, including polycarboxylic acids containing nitrogen or no nitrogen, have been used in the present invention. In some embodiments, the carboxylic acid is selected from one or more of citric acid, maleic acid, trimesic acid, terephthalic acid, gluconic acid, and malic acid, and the mass ratio of the transition metal containing compound to the carboxylic acid is 1 (0.1-10).
In addition, other organic compounds than the two above may be added together to form a homogeneous solution, and the other organic compounds may be any organic compound that may supplement the carbon source desired in the product, with or without other doping atoms. Organic compounds which are not volatile, such as organic polyols, lactic acid, etc., are preferred.

In some embodiments, the invention further comprises subjecting the aforementioned pyrolyzed product to an acid wash treatment.
In fact, the product obtained after the pyrolysis is a nanocomposite material with graphitized carbon layers coated with transition metal. Wherein the "graphitized carbon layer" refers to a carbon structure in which a layered structure is clearly observed under a high resolution transmission electron microscope, not an amorphous structure, and the interlayer spacing is about 0.34nm. The nano composite material of the graphitized carbon layer coated transition metal is a composite material composed of transition metal nano particles which are tightly coated by the graphitized carbon layer (not contacted with the outside), transition metal nano particles which can be contacted with the outside and limited by the domain and a carbon material with a mesoporous structure. After pickling treatment, nickel in the composite material has a certain loss, and can be characterized by a pickling loss rate. That is, "pickling loss rate" refers to the loss ratio of transition metal after pickling of the prepared carbon-coated transition metal nanocomposite product. Reflecting how tightly the graphitized carbon layer coats the transition metal. If the graphitized carbon layer does not cover the transition metal tightly, the transition metal of the inner core is dissolved by the acid after the acid treatment and is lost. The higher the acid washing loss rate, the lower the tightness degree of the graphitized carbon layer on the transition metal coating is, and the lower the acid washing loss rate is, the higher the tightness degree of the graphitized carbon layer on the transition metal coating is.
In general, specific conditions for the acid washing treatment are: 1g of the sample was added in a proportion of 20mL of an aqueous sulfuric acid solution (1 mol/L), the sample was treated at 90℃for 8 hours, then washed with deionized water to neutrality, dried, weighed, analyzed, and the acid washing loss rate was calculated as follows.
The calculation formula is as follows: the acid washing loss rate = [1- (mass wavelet of transition metal in composite material after acid washing x mass of composite material after acid washing)/(mass wavelet of transition metal in composite material to be treated x mass of composite material to be treated) ] × 100%. It should be noted that the "composite" in this formula is a composite that has not been treated with oxygen. In some embodiments, the composite material generally has a pickling loss of 40% or less, may be 30% or less, may be 20% or less, and may be 10% or less.
The carbon-coated transition metal nanocomposite obtained after pyrolysis or after acid washing is then further subjected to an oxygen treatment comprising introducing a standard gas into the pyrolyzed product and heating, wherein the standard gas contains oxygen and an equilibrium gas, and the volume concentration of the oxygen is 10% -40%, for example 10%, 12%, 15%, 17%, 20%, 22%, 25%, 28%, 30%, etc. The balance gas may be an inert gas such as nitrogen or argon, but the present invention is not limited thereto. In some embodiments, the temperature of the oxygen treatment is 200 ℃ to 500 ℃, preferably 300 ℃ to 400 ℃, such as 320 ℃, 340 ℃, 350 ℃, 380 ℃, etc.; the oxygen treatment time is 0.5 to 10 hours, for example, 1 hour, 3 hours, 5 hours, 7 hours, 8 hours, 10 hours, etc.
It is known to those skilled in the art that carbon can undergo an oxidation reaction with oxygen to produce a gas. It will be appreciated that pyrolysis of the precursor forms a nanocomposite material having a carbon-coated transition metal core, which is subjected to high temperature oxygen treatment, possibly with loss of carbon from the material by oxidation. However, the inventors of the present invention have unexpectedly found that after proper oxygen treatment, a small portion of carbon remains while a large portion of carbon is burned off. As described above, XRD, XPS and Raman spectroscopy analysis prove that a composite structure with a very thin graphite carbon film coated on the surface of the transition metal oxide is formed. Surprisingly, this is also the case for nanocomposite materials with carbon tightly coated elemental cores of transition metals (which materials are treated with strong non-oxidizing acids at temperatures near boiling for long periods of time without substantial loss of transition metals). Further research shows that the transition metal of the inner core is oxidized, and the thin film carbon layer further has a plurality of excellent properties, so that the nano composite material has great application potential in catalytic materials, energy storage materials and electromagnetic materials.

Specifically, the binder is selected from an aluminum sol, a silica sol, or a silica-alumina sol. The alumina sol can be obtained from commercial sources or from hydrated alumina (e.g. pseudo-boehmite or boehmite) and a peptizing agent selected from one or more of aqueous nitric acid, aqueous hydrochloric acid and aqueous citric acid according to well known methods. Further, the binder may further comprise a lubricant, i.e. the binder is made of hydrated alumina, peptizing agent, and lubricant, and the lubricant may be one or more selected from sesbania powder, citric acid, starch, and carboxymethyl cellulose.
In some embodiments, the aforementioned wet mass has a liquid to solid mass ratio of 0.8 to 1.5, e.g., 0.8, 0.9, 1, 1.2, etc., preferably 0.85 to 1. The carbon-coated transition metal oxide nanocomposite material accounts for 20% -80% of the mass of solids in the wet mass, such as 20%, 25%, 31%, 47%, 56%, 60%, 75%, etc. The binder accounts for 20% -80% of the solid mass in the wet dough, such as 22%, 36%, 41%, 47%, 55%, 67%, 80% and the like; the amount of the lubricant added may be 1% to 6%, for example, 1%, 2%, 4%, 5%, 6%, etc., preferably 2% to 3%, based on the mass of the carbon-coated transition metal oxide nanocomposite. The mass of the peptizing agent is 1% -5%, preferably 2% -3% of the mass of the binder.
After the wet dough having a desired composition is obtained, the wet dough is dried at a drying temperature of 20 to 100 ℃, for example, 20 ℃, 25 ℃, 30 ℃, 45 ℃, 50 ℃, 65 ℃, 70 ℃, 72 ℃, 82 ℃, 88 ℃, and the like. The drying time is 3h to 24h, for example 3h, 4h, 6h, 7h, 10h, 12h, 13h, 17h, 20h, 24h, etc. The drying atmosphere is an inert atmosphere or an air atmosphere.
The dried product may be subjected to a first calcination in an inert atmosphere, for example pseudo-boehmite, in which case the product is pseudo-Conversion of boehmite to gamma-Al 2 O 3 As carrier for the active ingredient. The temperature rising rate of the roasting is 1-20 ℃ per minute, preferably 2.5-10 ℃ per minute, such as 2.5, 3.5, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, etc. When the temperature is raised to the roasting temperature of 400-800 ℃, keeping the constant temperature for 1-10 h, wherein the preferable roasting temperature is 450-600 ℃, and the constant temperature time is 3-8 h.

Another way is: firstly, loading oxidized transition metal on a carrier by using an existing loading method such as dipping and the like, then reducing the transition metal to a zero-valent state, and (II) introducing gas containing carbon source at high temperature under inert atmosphere or hydrogen atmosphere for carbon coating; (III) finally, carrying out oxygen treatment again to convert the zero-valent transition metal into transition metal oxide and simultaneously removing amorphous carbon.
According to the aforementioned preparation method, the carrier is alumina or silica, or the carrier is a composite oxide of silica and alumina.

According to the invention, as previously described, the decomposition N reported in the current research 2 The catalyst of O mainly comprises a noble metal catalyst, an ion-exchange molecular sieve catalyst and a transition metal oxide catalyst. Noble metal catalysts, although having a low decomposition temperature, are not suitable for large-scale industrial production at an expensive price; the high-efficiency decomposition temperature of other molecular sieve catalysts and transition metal oxide catalysts is 450-550 ℃, and the high temperature required by the reaction greatly improves the industrial cost.
The inventors of the present invention have found that the nanocomposite material of the carbon-coated transition metal oxide of the present invention can effectively decompose nitrous oxide into nitrogen and oxygen as a catalyst, and exhibits excellent stability of catalytic activity in the reaction. In addition, when the existing catalyst is used for catalyzing and decomposing nitrous oxide, the high-concentration nitrous oxide obtained in industrial production is generally required to be diluted to about 0.5% -2%, and the catalyst can be directly decomposed to reach a high decomposition rate without dilution. Namely, the volume concentration of the nitrous oxide is 30% -40%, the catalytic decomposition reaction can be carried out, and the decomposition rate can reach more than 99%, so that the industrial cost is greatly reduced, and the method has good industrial application prospect.
