Catalytic combustion/oxidation has been viewed as an efficient, economically feasible and environmentally friendly way for the elimination of VOCs. Supported metal catalyst is the preferred type of catalysts applied for VOCs catalytic combustion because of the synergy between active components and support as well as its flexibility in the composition. The presence of support not only plays the role of keeping the catalyst with good stability and mechanical strength, but also provides a large specific surface for the good dispersion of active components, which could effectively improve the performance of catalyst as well as decrease the usage of active components, especially the noble metal amount. Mesoporous molecular sieves, owing to their large surface area, unique porous structures, large pore size as well as uniform pore-size distribution, were viewed as superior support for dispersing active components. This review focuses on the recent development of mesoporous molecular sieve supported metal catalysts and their application in catalytic oxidation of VOCs. The effect of active component types, support structure, preparation method, precursors, etc. on the valence state, dispersion as well as the loading of active species were also discussed and summarized. Moreover, the corresponding conversion route of VOCs was also addressed.This review aims to provide some enlightment for designing the supported metal catalysts with superior activity and stability for VOCs removal.展开更多

Such materials are active catalysts for the transesterifica- tion of dimethyl oxalate and phenol to produce diphenyl oxalate. To understand the role of the Ti in the catalytic process, Ti-MCM-41 samples with different Si/Ti ratios （from 5 to 100） were prepared and the samples were analyzed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, UV- visible spectroscopy, and ammonia temperature pro- grammed desorption. It was concluded that the Ti is incorporated into the framework of the MCM-41 and formed weak Lewis acid sites. In addition, the number of Ti（IV） sites increased as the amount of titanium increased. X-ray powder diffraction, N2 adsorpfion-desorption and transmission electron microscopy results showed that the Ti-MCM-41 samples have a hexagonal arrangement of mono-dimensional pores. A large number of Ti（IV） sites coupled with the mesoporous structure and large pore diameters are favorable for the transesterification catalytic properties of Ti-MCM-41.展开更多

Herein, mesoporous molecular sieve titanium phosphate （MMS-TiP） was used as an efficient nano-photocatalyst to degrade 2,4-dichlorophenol （2,4-DCP） and to oxidize CO. The catalyst was successfully synthesized by a simple and convenient hydrothermal method in the presence of a tri-block copolymer surfactant. Exceptional photoactivity of the optimized MMS-TiP mainly depends on its porous structure, with a large surface area by means of O2 temperature-programmed desorption curves and fluorescence spectra related to the amounts of produced hydroxyl radical. Interestingly, the photocatalytic activity of the prepared MMS-TiP could be greatly improved by coupling with nanocrystalline SnO2. This is likely due to the increase in the lifetime and separation of photogenerated charges by transferring electrons to SnO2 and was observed by steady-state surface photovoltage spectra and time-resolved surface photovoltage responses. The SnOa-coupled MMS-TiP exhibits better photocatalytic performance for 2,4-DCP degradation and better self-settlement than those of the commercial catalyst P25 TiO2. Moreover, it was confirmed by radical-trapping experiments that ·O2^- is the main activated species for the photocatalytic degradation of 2,4-DCP, and is photogenerated by electron transfer from MMS-TiP to SnO2. Furthermore, the main intermediates in the degradation of 2,4-DCP, like parachlorophenol superoxide and 1,2-benzenediol superoxide radicals, were detected, and a possible decomposition pathway related to ·O2^- attack is proposed. These experimental results provide new strategies for developing a recyclable molecular sieve- based nano-photocatalyst with high photocatalytic activity for environmental remediation.展开更多

Several methods have been studied and the ＂adsorption-crosslinking＂ is found to be the best one. Firstly, AChE and bovine serum albumin （BSA） were adsorbed in turn on the surface of NH2-SBA-15 by electrostatic adsorption, and then glutaraldehyde was added for cross-linking the amino group of AChE. The NH2-SBA- 15 showed around 95% immobilization efficiency and the specific activity of immobilized AChE （ACHE- NH2-SBA-15） reached 130% relative to free AChE under optimal immobilization conditions. It was found AChE-NH2-SBA-15 retained 94.0% and 82.8% of its initial activity after 60days at 4℃ and 25℃, respectively. It remained 55.0% of its initial activity after 6 times recycling. During the detection of pesticide, the AChE-NH2-SBA-15 showed wider linear range and much lower limit of detection compared with free ACHE. The current method showed good recovery （93.8%-109.3%） and low RSD （〈5%） for both standard solution and real vegetable samples of Carbaryl and Trichlorfon. It was believed that AChE-NH2- SBA- 15 could be exploited as a fast, sensitive and low-cost biocatalyst towards the detection of pesticides residues which could be stored at room temperature for a long time.展开更多

The samples have been characterized by various physicochemical methods, including X-ray diffraction （XRD）, nitrogen adsorption （N2） and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy （XPS）. The results reveal that Cu-MCM-48 with mass fraction of copper up to 10 % can still retain the uniform mesoporous framework of MCM-48. The copper in the framework of MCM-48 was easily auto-reduced to Cu（I） in N2 at high temperature, which did not alter the mesoporous structure of MCM-48. The adsorption equilibrium isotherms of ethylene and ethane on these molecular sieve adsorbents have been measured at 30℃. At 100 kPa, the adsorption capacities of ethylene on 5Cu-MCM-48 and 10Cu-MCM-48 are higher than those on MCM-48. The 10Cu-MCM-48 molecular sieve adsorbent has a higher selective adsorption ratio of ethylene to ethane, the separation factor is 3.8, and the amount of ethylene adsorbed is 11.1 ml·g ^-1.展开更多

Effects of the supports regarding pore structures and pore properties, the PEI loading amount as well as the sorption temperature were examined. Furthermore, polyethylene glycol（PEG） was introduced as an additive into the sorbents and its effect was investigated at different PEI loadings and sorption temperatures. The results suggest that the pore properties of MBS（after PEI loading） play a more important role in the COsorption capacity, rather than those of the supports alone.MBS with 3D pore structure exhibits higher COsorption capacity and amine efficiency than those with 2D-structured support. Among the sorbents studied, fumed silica（HS-5） based MBS showed the highest COsorption capacity in the temperature range of 30-95 °C, probably due to its unique interstitial pores formed by the aggregation of polymer-loaded SiOparticles. It was found that the temperature dependence is directly related to the PEI surface coverage layers. The more PEI surface coverage layers, the higher diffusion barrier for COand the stronger temperature dependence of COcapacity. 3D MBS exceeds 2D MBS at the same PEI coverage layers due to lower diffusion barrier. Adding PEG can significantly enhance the COsorption capacity and improve amine efficiency of all MBS, most likely by alleviating the diffusion barrier within PEI bulk layers through the inter-molecular interaction between PEI and PEG.展开更多

The assemblies of SZA/MCM-41 were obtained by thermal decomposition of the precursors in air.The resultant composite was characterized with various techniques such as nitrogen physisorption, X-ray diffraction, SEM and TEM. It was shown that the well-ordered channels of MCM-41 arranged in hexagonal arrays as well as the hollow tubular morphology was retained. The strong solid acid nanoparticles were isolated born each other and highly, dispersed in the channels. Nitrogen sorption showed the expected decrease in pore volume. The catalytic activity of SZA/MCM-41 composite in the isomerization of n-butane was dramatically improved in comparison to bulk SZA or SZA/silica.展开更多

The results show that mesopores in the sample possess hexagonal arrays obviously, whereas the structure of silica matrix is amorphous. The results also show that the acting mode of silica and CTMA+ inside the mesopores was chemical bonding force. The structure of mesoporous silica was mainly dependent on the aggregational condition of micelle of CTMA+ as well as their liquid-crystallized status. In addition, condensation and dehydration of silicate radicals were accompanied in the process of calcination, which resulted in the mesoporous structure ordered in local range and the pore sizes largening.展开更多

[Method] The synthesis of mesoporous molecular sieves Al-MCM-41 was carried out in an open-vessel. The mesoporous structure of as-synthesized Al-MCM-41 was characterized by X-ray diffraction （XRD） pattern, Fourier transform infrared （FT-IR） spectrum, NH3-Temperature Programmed Desorption （TPD）, and N2 adsorption-desorption isotherms. The catalytic performances of Al-MCM-41 for the synthesis of geranyl propionate （GP） with geraniol and propionic acid as reagents also were investigated. [Result] The as-synthesized Al-MCM-41 possesses typical hexagonal mesoporous structure with high long-range order and crystalline degree. Based on the systematic investigation of reaction time, temperature, amount ratio of reagents and regeneration of catalyst, the optimum reaction conditions were obtained with molar ratio of geraniol to propionic acid of 1.0∶1.5, reaction temperature of 120 ℃ and reaction time of 8 h. The high GP selectivity of 70.01% with geraniol conversion of 40.01% was achieved under above optimum conditions. The catalyst inactivation can be observed after five catalytic cycles. The regeneration of inactivated catalyst with high activity and selectivity can be achieved by calcination treatment to remove the carbon deposition, which covers the acid site of catalyst. [Conclusion] The optimal conditions for the synthesis of geranyl propionate were obtained.展开更多

The influence of the hydrothermal synthesis conditions on HMS particle size was studied systematically. The results showed that the smaller particle was obtained under the condition of DDA/SiO2=0.27, H2O/SiO2=66.7, EtOH/SiO2=6.5 mol and synthesis time of 18 h. The presences of additives （TW20, TW60, SP60 and Neopelex） also helped to the reduction of particle size.

The adsorption equilibrium isotherms of ethylene and ethane on these molecular sieve adsorbents have been measured at 30℃. At 100 kPa, the adsorption capacities of ethylene on 5Cu-MCM-48 and 10Cu-MCM-48 are higher than those on MCM-48. The 10Cu-MCM-48 molecular sieve adsorbent has a higher selective adsorption ratio of ethylene to ethane, the separation factor is 3.8, and the amount of ethylene adsorbed is 11.1 ml·g ^-1.

文摘The objective of this work is to study the influences of silica supports and PEG additive on the sorption performance of molecular basket sorbent（MBS） for COcapture consisting of polyethylenimine and one of the following supports: SBA-15（2-D structure）, TUD-1（3-D sponge-like structure） and fumed silica HS-5（3-D disordered structure）. Effects of the supports regarding pore structures and pore properties, the PEI loading amount as well as the sorption temperature were examined. Furthermore, polyethylene glycol（PEG） was introduced as an additive into the sorbents and its effect was investigated at different PEI loadings and sorption temperatures. The results suggest that the pore properties of MBS（after PEI loading） play a more important role in the COsorption capacity, rather than those of the supports alone.MBS with 3D pore structure exhibits higher COsorption capacity and amine efficiency than those with 2D-structured support. Among the sorbents studied, fumed silica（HS-5） based MBS showed the highest COsorption capacity in the temperature range of 30-95 °C, probably due to its unique interstitial pores formed by the aggregation of polymer-loaded SiOparticles. It was found that the temperature dependence is directly related to the PEI surface coverage layers. The more PEI surface coverage layers, the higher diffusion barrier for COand the stronger temperature dependence of COcapacity. 3D MBS exceeds 2D MBS at the same PEI coverage layers due to lower diffusion barrier. Adding PEG can significantly enhance the COsorption capacity and improve amine efficiency of all MBS, most likely by alleviating the diffusion barrier within PEI bulk layers through the inter-molecular interaction between PEI and PEG.
文摘Mesoporous molecular sieve with Al-promoted sulfated rirconia (SZA) based strong solid acid nano-particles within its mesoporous channels was synthesized by using a one-step incipient wetness impregnation method with zirconium sulfate and aluminum sulfate as the precursors. The assemblies of SZA/MCM-41 were obtained by thermal decomposition of the precursors in air.The resultant composite was characterized with various techniques such as nitrogen physisorption, X-ray diffraction, SEM and TEM. It was shown that the well-ordered channels of MCM-41 arranged in hexagonal arrays as well as the hollow tubular morphology was retained. The strong solid acid nanoparticles were isolated born each other and highly, dispersed in the channels. Nitrogen sorption showed the expected decrease in pore volume. The catalytic activity of SZA/MCM-41 composite in the isomerization of n-butane was dramatically improved in comparison to bulk SZA or SZA/silica.

文摘Structrue and pore characteristics of the mesoporous silica synthesized in acid medium were studied by means of XRD, HRTEM, BET, FT-IR, DSC-TGA, and the reaction mechanism was also investigated deeply. The results show that mesopores in the sample possess hexagonal arrays obviously, whereas the structure of silica matrix is amorphous. The results also show that the acting mode of silica and CTMA+ inside the mesopores was chemical bonding force. The structure of mesoporous silica was mainly dependent on the aggregational condition of micelle of CTMA+ as well as their liquid-crystallized status. In addition, condensation and dehydration of silicate radicals were accompanied in the process of calcination, which resulted in the mesoporous structure ordered in local range and the pore sizes largening.
文摘Following hydrothermal synthesis process, MCM-41 was synthesized by using cetyltriethylammonium bromide as templating agent. The experimental results showed that MCM-41 with pore diameter in the range of 4-7 nm can be obtained by adjusting nsurf/nsi. It was proved that cetyltriethylammonium bromide is an effective templating agent for increasing pore diameter of molecular sieve MCM-41.

文摘[Objective] The aim was to explore the optimal conditions for the catalytic synthesis of geranyl propionate. [Method] The synthesis of mesoporous molecular sieves Al-MCM-41 was carried out in an open-vessel. The mesoporous structure of as-synthesized Al-MCM-41 was characterized by X-ray diffraction （XRD） pattern, Fourier transform infrared （FT-IR） spectrum, NH3-Temperature Programmed Desorption （TPD）, and N2 adsorption-desorption isotherms. The catalytic performances of Al-MCM-41 for the synthesis of geranyl propionate （GP） with geraniol and propionic acid as reagents also were investigated. [Result] The as-synthesized Al-MCM-41 possesses typical hexagonal mesoporous structure with high long-range order and crystalline degree. Based on the systematic investigation of reaction time, temperature, amount ratio of reagents and regeneration of catalyst, the optimum reaction conditions were obtained with molar ratio of geraniol to propionic acid of 1.0∶1.5, reaction temperature of 120 ℃ and reaction time of 8 h. The high GP selectivity of 70.01% with geraniol conversion of 40.01% was achieved under above optimum conditions. The catalyst inactivation can be observed after five catalytic cycles. The regeneration of inactivated catalyst with high activity and selectivity can be achieved by calcination treatment to remove the carbon deposition, which covers the acid site of catalyst. [Conclusion] The optimal conditions for the synthesis of geranyl propionate were obtained.

文摘MCM 41 molecular sieve supported Rh PPh 3 catalysts were prepared by the in situ assembling of the metal complex from smaller moieties of Rh(acac)(CO) 2 and ligand of PPh 3. The resulted guest/host materials(Rh PPh 3/MCM 41) were characterized by X ray powder diffraction, FTIR and 31 P( 1H) NMR, and served as catalysts for propene hydroformylation. The results showed negligible change in MCM 41 framework after propene hydroformylation at 393 K. Higher hydroformylation activities were obtained on Rh PPh 3/MCM 41 catalysts compared to that on Rh PPh 3/SiO 2.

文摘The mesoporous molecular sieves MCM-41 were prepared using room tempera-ture ionic liquid （RTIL） synthesized in laboratory and cethytrimethylammonium bromide （CTAB） as compound templates for the first time. They were prepared under low aging temperature and short aging time. Via characterizing by XRD and nitrogen adsorption instrument, MCM-41 synthesized by this new method exhibited good crystal structure and narrow pore distribution. The following pre-paratory conditions was optimal： the molar ratio of RTIL to CTAB was 1.0∶1.0, aging at 80 ℃, for 40 h and calcined at 540 ℃. It is found that the acidified MCM-41 improves its activity as catalyst over the unmodified ones.

文摘HMS mesoporous molecular sieve was synthesized hydrothermally by using dodecylamine （DDA） as template and tetethylorthosilicalite （TEOS） as silicon source. The influence of the hydrothermal synthesis conditions on HMS particle size was studied systematically. The results showed that the smaller particle was obtained under the condition of DDA/SiO2=0.27, H2O/SiO2=66.7, EtOH/SiO2=6.5 mol and synthesis time of 18 h. The presences of additives （TW20, TW60, SP60 and Neopelex） also helped to the reduction of particle size. The HMS mesoporous molecular sieve with particle size around 60-100 nm was obtained by using TW20 or TW60 as an additive. In addition, TEM image showed that HMS mesoporous molecular sieve with pariticle size about 20-100 nm was synthesized in microemulsion.
文摘Pure Mesoporous TiO2 molecular sieves (Ti-TMS) were synthesized with different templates for the first time and the templates can be successfully removed by refluxing the samples in the EtOH/H2O/KOH solution. The XRD pattern and TEM confirm that the uniformity and stability of Ti-TMS2 synthesized with dodecylamine as template is obviously inferior to that of Ti-TMS1 prepared with dodecylphosphate and hexadecylphosphate as templates. Furthermore, after the templates were removed, the mesostructure of Ti-TMS1 was preserved to a great degree than that of Ti-TMS2.
