Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a catalyst for aldol condensation reaction and a preparation method thereof, and in particular to a mesoporous nanosphere acid-base bifunctional catalyst for synthesizing methyl methacrylate from methyl propionate and formaldehyde and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Methyl methacrylate (MMA) is an important chemical raw material and polymer intermediate, widely used in organic glass, plastic modifiers, lubricant additives, surface coatings, and printing and dyeing auxiliaries. Due to the rapid development of its application areas, global demand for MMA is growing, showing broad market prospects.

[0003] The main synthetic routes for MMA include the acetone cyanohydrin method (ACH method), the C4 route isobutylene / tert-butyl alcohol oxidation method, the C2 route ethylene carbonylation method (BASF method), and the ethylene-methyl propionate method (Alpha method). The traditional ACH method is simple, mature, and offers high yields. However, the raw material hydrocyanic acid used in this process is highly toxic, and it also produces a large amount of ammonium bisulfate waste liquid, which is expensive to handle. Furthermore, the process equipment corrodes severely, potentially causing environmental pollution. The isobutylene / tert-butyl alcohol oxidation method offers high MMA yields and few byproducts, but requires high catalyst preparation requirements, resulting in higher investment and production costs. The ethylene carbonylation method offers high atom utilization and a simpler process, but its catalyst life is short, product selectivity is poor, and production costs are higher than the isobutylene oxidation method. The Alpha method offers mild reaction conditions, non-corrosive raw materials and intermediates to equipment, and high atom economy. Compared with the ACH and isobutylene oxidation methods, it can reduce costs by 30-40%, demonstrating significant competitiveness.

[0004] The Alpha process uses ethylene, CO, and methanol as raw materials to react and produce methyl propionate (MP). MP then reacts with formaldehyde (FA) to produce MMA. The key to this technology lies in the development of a catalyst for the aldol condensation of MP and FA. The current industrial catalyst used is a supported catalyst developed by Lucite, which uses SiO2 as a carrier and Cs as the active component. However, this catalyst suffers from low catalytic activity and yield (MP conversion is 11%, and MMA yield is only around 10%). Furthermore, the presence of water in the reaction reduces the surface area of ​​the SiO2 carrier, leading to a continuous decline in activity. Furthermore, the presence of double-bond compounds such as methyl methacrylate and formaldehyde in this reaction system easily forms carbon deposits on the catalyst surface. The accumulation of carbon deposits ultimately leads to catalyst deactivation and a shortened lifespan.

[0005] In response to the above problems, researchers have conducted modification studies on the above catalysts. The main method is to introduce active additives and anti-carbon deposition additives into the active components. For example, Chinese patent CN106423159B discloses amorphous SiO2 as a carrier, and the addition of La, Ce, Nd, Pr and Pm active additives and Pt, Rh, Ru, Pd, Ir, Fe, Co and Ni oxides, chlorides, nitrates, carbonates and organic acid salts as anti-carbon deposition agents to the Cs active component. Chinese patent CN107175094B discloses a method using a composite carrier of amorphous SiO2 and TiO2 as a carrier, and the addition of Na, K, Mg, Ca, Ba and other active additives to the Cs active component. Chinese patent CN116262239B discloses a catalyst using bio-based amorphous SiO2 as a carrier, with active components consisting of one or more of Li, Na, K, Cs, Sr, and Ba, and additives consisting of one or more of V, Nb, La, Fe, W, Zr, and Sn. Compared to industrial catalysts, this catalyst exhibits improved catalytic activity and carbon deposition resistance. However, modification of these catalysts typically involves adding active additives or anti-carbon deposition agents to the catalyst surface. These added components occupy a certain number of active sites, thus limiting the improvement in catalytic activity. Furthermore, the added additives have a weak interaction with the active components, which can easily lead to loss of these components or additives, resulting in a decrease in catalytic performance. Furthermore, anti-carbon deposition agents have limited effectiveness in inhibiting the polymerization of substances such as methyl methacrylate and formaldehyde, and cannot fundamentally address the occurrence of carbon deposition. Therefore, developing highly active and stable aldol condensation catalysts for the synthesis of MMA from MP and FA remains a significant challenge. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The present invention aims to provide a mesoporous nanosphere acid-base bifunctional catalyst for the preparation of MMA by the aldol condensation of MP and FA, and a preparation method thereof. Based on the acid-base synergistic catalytic reaction mechanism of MMA synthesis and the assumption that the acid-base balance of a catalyst is the key to catalytic activity, the present invention introduces an acidic species into a carrier and regulates the addition amount to impart an acid strength suitable for FA activation. This catalyst is then combined with an alkaline active species of suitable base strength capable of activating MP to synthesize a bifunctional catalyst with acid-base synergistic catalysis. Furthermore, the innovative introduction of a mesoporous carrier into the reaction system increases the diffusion rate of reactants, intermediates, and products, essentially inhibiting deep condensation at active sites and thus preventing carbon deposition.

[0007] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention introduces acidic metal ions as modifiers into the skeleton of the mesoporous MCM-41 carrier, and loads Cs species as alkaline active sites. SThe ratio of the species and the acidic metal ions is adjusted to achieve a good acid-base balance. By using templates of different chain lengths, the pore size of the mesopores can be regulated, thereby synthesizing an ordered mesoporous nanosphere acid-base bifunctional catalyst. The preparation method of the present invention is simple, the raw material cost is low, and the prepared catalyst has excellent catalytic activity and anti-carbon deposition performance.

[0013] The preparation method of the mesoporous nanosphere acid-base dual-function catalyst for synthesizing methyl methacrylate of the present invention comprises the following steps:

[0014] (1) Weigh trimethylamine halide C n H2n+1 N(CH3)3 + Y - The surfactant is used as a template and is dispersed in deionized water under magnetic stirring to form a trimethylamine halide dispersion, and then an alkali source is added to obtain an alkaline surfactant solution;

[0015] (2) Weighing an inorganic salt / organic salt containing acidic metal ions as an acidic metal ion precursor, dissolving it in deionized water or ethanol, and then introducing it dropwise into the alkaline surfactant solution obtained in step (1), and then adding a silicon source to react; transferring the resulting reaction solution to a stainless steel hydrothermal kettle with a polytetrafluoroethylene liner for hydrothermal aging; after the reaction is completed, filtering the reaction solution and washing it with deionized water and ethanol until it is neutral, and placing it in an oven to dry overnight to obtain an acidic metal ion-modified MCM-41 mesoporous molecular sieve precursor;

[0016] (3) calcining the precursor obtained in step (2) under air atmosphere to obtain a nano-spherical carrier having hexagonal ordered mesopores;

[0017] (4) Weighing a cesium source precursor and dissolving it in deionized water to form a cesium metal ion solution, weighing the nano-spherical support obtained in step (3) and impregnating it in the cesium metal ion solution, and performing shaking impregnation under heating conditions; after the reaction is completed, filtering the reaction solution and washing it with deionized water, and placing it in an oven to dry overnight to obtain a catalyst precursor with an acidic metal ion-modified MCM-41 as a support and a Cs active component loaded thereon;

[0018] (5) calcining the precursor obtained in step (4) under air atmosphere to obtain a mesoporous nanosphere acid-base dual-functional catalyst.

[0019] In the step (1), trimethylamine halide C n H 2n+1 N(CH3)3 + Y - wherein Y is Cl or Br, and n is 8 to 18; the inorganic salt / organic salt containing acidic metal ions is one or two of the nitrates, carbonates, acetates, propoxides, and fatty acid salts of the corresponding metals of Zr, Ti, Al, La, Ce, and Fe.

[0020] In the step (1), the alkali source is selected from sodium hydroxide, tetramethylammonium hydroxide or ammonia water; and the pH of the solution is adjusted to a range of 10 to 13.

[0021] In the step (2), the silicon source is selected from tetraethyl silicate and silica sol; the molar ratio of the silicon source to the trimethylamine halide template is 1:0.4 to 1:0.05, the hydrothermal temperature is 90 to 160° C., and the aging time is 6 to 72 hours.

[0022] In the step (3), the calcination temperature is 400-600° C., and the calcination time is 4-12 hours.

[0023] In the step (4), the cesium source precursor is selected from cesium carbonate, cesium nitrate, cesium acetate or cesium hydroxide; the reaction temperature is 25-60° C., and the reaction time is 4-12 hours.

[0024] The mass ratio of the amount of the cesium source precursor added in step (4) to the amount of the acidic metal ion precursor added in step (2) is in the range of 1:0.2 to 1:1.2.

[0025] In the step (5), the calcination temperature is 400-600° C., and the calcination time is 3-10 hours.

[0026] The present invention discloses a method for preparing a mesoporous nanosphere acid-base bifunctional catalyst for producing MMA by condensing MP and FA. The method comprises introducing an acidic metal ion additive into an MCM-41 precursor for modification, further hydrothermal aging the precursor to obtain a modified MCM-41 precursor, and then calcining the precursor at high temperature to obtain an MCM-41 support modified with acidic metal ions. The modified support is then immersed in a deionized aqueous solution containing cesium metal ions, and a Cs active species is loaded on the surface of the modified support to obtain a catalyst precursor. After the reaction is complete, the precursor is calcined at high temperature to obtain a supported catalyst with the acidic metal ion-modified MCM-41 as the support and the Cs species as the active component.

[0027] The MCM-41 precursor described above can be obtained by reacting a publicly reported template and a silicon source in an alkaline solution. The template can be a trimethylamine halide with different hydrophobic chain lengths.

[0028] The acidic metal ion-modified MCM-41 loaded Cs active component nanosphere acid-base bifunctional catalyst needs to be prepared through hydrothermal treatment and calcination, and the prepared nanoscale catalyst has ordered hexagonal mesopores.

[0029] The catalyst prepared by the present invention is specifically used in the condensation reaction of MP and FA to produce MMA. The method involves loading catalyst sample particles into the constant temperature zone in the middle of the tubular reactor, equipped with a preheater and a reactor, and embedding a temperature measuring point therein. N2 carrier gas is introduced from the preheater into the reactor. A mixed raw material of MP, FA, and CH3OH at a fixed molar ratio of 1:1:1.5 is then vaporized and mixed in the preheater using a micropump and injected into the reactor along with the carrier gas for reaction. The content of the product to be stabilized by the reaction is determined by chromatography. Calculations indicate that when the catalyst of the present invention is used in the MMA synthesis reaction, the conversion of MP exceeds 25% and the selectivity of MMA exceeds 85%.

[0030] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present invention are:

[0031] (1) The acidic metal ions are introduced into the mesoporous MCM-41 carrier by the sol-gel method. Compared with the specific surface area of ​​the SiO2 carrier in the industrial catalyst, the specific surface area of ​​the MCM-41 carrier is 200-400 m 2 / g increases to 900~1100m 2 / g, and effectively solves the problem of the carrier's specific surface area being reduced due to hydrolysis of water in the reaction system.

[0032] (2) Compared to catalysts modified by the impregnation method, the acid-base bifunctional catalyst prepared by the present invention, which is a modified MCM-41 with an acidic metal ion skeleton and loaded with an alkaline active component, can more effectively modulate the acid-base properties of the support, reduce the adsorption competition between the acidic metal ions and the alkaline active species on the support surface, and promote the high dispersion of the alkaline active species. In addition, the Si-OH groups in the modified MCM-41 support and the alkaline component Cs can form Si-O-Cs chemical bonds, thereby significantly enhancing the interaction between the active component and the support and improving the catalyst stability.

[0033] (3) The acid-base bifunctional catalyst prepared by the present invention has a hexagonal ordered mesoporous structure, which can significantly improve the mass transfer efficiency of reactants and products by regulating the confinement effect of the mesopores, thereby inhibiting the deep condensation of substances such as MMA and FA at the active sites of the catalyst to generate macromolecular substances such as aromatic hydrocarbons and alicyclic hydrocarbons, essentially inhibiting the occurrence of carbon deposition, achieving the purpose of improving the catalyst's anti-carbon deposition performance and extending the service life of the catalyst.

[0138] Table 1 Catalytic performance of catalysts in comparative examples and different examples

[0139]

[0140]

[0141] As can be seen from Table 1, the Cs 0.15 / Al 0.04 -MCM-41 catalyst is used in the reaction of MP and FA condensation to prepare MMA. Under the optimized conditions, the conversion rate of MP can reach 30.2% and the selectivity of MMA can reach 91.3%. In addition, in order to prove the effect of introducing acidic metal ions into the MCM-41 framework, the present invention prepared unmodified Cs 0.12 / MCM-41 catalyst. By comparing the differences between the two catalysts, it was found that the skeleton-doped Al ions can significantly enhance the acidic properties of the catalyst, increase the optimal loading amount of the Cs active component, and promote the dispersion of the active component, thereby enhancing the synergistic effect of the acid-base sites of the catalyst. In addition, in order to prove that the introduction of a mesoporous carrier in the present invention is beneficial to improving the catalytic activity and anti-carbon deposition performance, the present invention did not add a pore-forming template during the preparation process, and prepared an amorphous porous silicon carrier-supported Cs / Silica catalyst. It can be seen that the optimal loading amount of the Cs active component and the initial activity of the Cs / Silica catalyst are significantly lower than those of the Cs with ordered mesopores. a / X b-MCM-41 catalyst, and showed a significant decrease in activity during the long-term experiment. This result proves the advantage of mesoporous carriers in improving the dispersion of active components and enhancing catalyst performance and stability. In addition, the Cs / Silica catalyst showed a black color after 300h of evaluation, which means that it had serious carbon deposition and reduced activity, while the Cs a / X b -MCM-41 catalyst showed light gray after evaluation, and no obvious carbon deposition was observed, further proving that the mesoporous support can essentially inhibit the formation of carbon deposition.

[0142] Comparison of the present invention with the catalysts reported in the literature shows that the catalytic performance of the present invention has good advantages in both conversion rate and selectivity. However, the catalysts reported in the literature often sacrifice conversion rate (selectivity) in order to improve selectivity (conversion rate), which does not meet the high conversion rate and high selectivity requirements for the efficient synthesis of MMA.

[0143] It can be seen that the method provided by the present invention can obtain a catalyst with both high conversion rate and high selectivity for the synthesis of MMA, and has a longer service life.

[0144] The present invention combines the sol-gel method with the wet impregnation method to prepare an ordered mesoporous nano-spherical acid-base bifunctional catalyst. The acidic metal ion modification auxiliary agent can be introduced into the skeleton of the carrier, achieving a good acid-base balance with the alkaline active component Cs and promoting the high dispersion of the active component, thereby greatly improving the catalytic activity of the catalyst. At the same time, a strong bonding interaction is formed between the alkaline active component Cs and the modified MCM-41 carrier, which improves the stability of the catalyst. In addition, after the acidic metal ions replace the Si atoms of the MCM-41 skeleton, they still exhibit a hexagonal ordered mesoporous structure. While adjusting the acidity and alkalinity, they utilize the confinement effect of the mesopores to significantly improve the mass transfer efficiency of reactants and products, thereby suppressing the occurrence of carbon deposition. The preparation method of the present invention using the sol-gel method and the impregnation method is simple to operate and has a short preparation process. In summary, this ordered mesoporous nano-spherical acid-base bifunctional catalyst meets the requirements of high efficiency, cleanliness and industrial production in terms of performance, service life and economy.
