[0041] Example 1:

[0042] 1.24 g of boric acid and 1.26 g of melamine were dissolved in 100 mL of deionized water, recrystallized at 85°C, and white solids were obtained after 12 h. The precursor was dried in a vacuum drying oven at 60°C to obtain the precursor. The dried precursor was calcined at 1200°C under N2atmosphere at a heating rate of 10°C / min for 3 h to obtain boron nitride fibers. The boron nitride fibers were ultrasonically treated in 1 mol / L NaOH at 60°C for 30 min and then stirred for 4 h to obtain hydroxyl boron nitride fibers (BN-NaOH).

[0043] Example 2:

[0044] 1.24 g of boric acid and 1.26 g of melamine were dissolved in 100 mL of deionized water, recrystallized at 85°C, and white solids were obtained after 12 h. The precursor was dried in a vacuum drying oven at 60°C to obtain the precursor. The dried precursor was calcined at 1200°C under N2atmosphere at a heating rate of 10°C / min for 3 h to obtain boron nitride fibers. The boron nitride fibers were ultrasonically treated in 1 mol / L NaOH at 60°C for 30 min and then stirred for 4 h to obtain hydroxyl boron nitride fibers (BN-NaOH).

[0045] The basic structure and morphology of the original boron nitride fiber (BN), the BN-HNO3 fiber and the BN-NaOH fiber are compared as shown in Figure 1 , the crystal phase structure and functional group characterization are as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the specific surface area and defect characterization are as shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5 , and the propane oxidative dehydrogenation performance is as shown in Figure 6 and Figure 7 .

[0046] Result analysis:

[0047] Referring to Figure 1 , the basic structure and morphology of the original boron nitride fiber, the BN-HNO3 fiber and the BN-NaOH fiber under scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) are compared, wherein a-c are the original boron nitride fiber, d-f are the BN-HNO3 fiber, and g-i are the BN-NaOH fiber. The hydroxyl boron nitride fibers (BN-HNO3 fiber and BN-NaOH fiber) synthesized in the above examples 1-2 are characterized by Figure 1The results show that the synthesized hydroxyl boron nitride fibers have a three-dimensional porous fiber morphology, and the surface morphology does not change significantly after chemical activation treatment. The BN-HNO3 surface formed by acid treatment has wrinkles, and the BN-NaOH surface formed by alkaline treatment has more obvious wrinkles and more defects.

[0048] Referring to Figure 2 and 3 , the hydroxyl boron nitride fibers (BN-HNO3 fibers and BN-NaOH fibers) synthesized in the above embodiment examples 1-2 are characterized by XRD, and it is found that the diffraction peaks are located at 26 o and 42.3 o , which are the phase of hexagonal boron nitride. The synthesized hydroxyl boron nitride fibers have a hexagonal graphite structure, and FTIR shows that the hydroxyl boron nitride fibers have a strong absorption peak at 3300 cm -1 -1, which is higher than that of the original boron nitride fibers, indicating that the synthesized hydroxyl boron nitride fibers have strong B-OH functional groups.

[0049] Referring to Figure 4 and 5 , the hydroxyl boron nitride fibers (BN-HNO3 fibers and BN-NaOH fibers) synthesized in the above embodiment examples 1-2 are characterized by XRD, and it is found that the diffraction peaks are located at 26 2 g -1 ) has a higher specific surface area than the original boron nitride fibers (176 m 2 g -1 ), such as BN-HNO3 with 311 m 2 g -1 . The Raman spectrum of the hydroxyl boron nitride fibers, especially BN-NaOH, has a wide half-peak width, indicating that the weak B-N force has more defects.

[0050] Referring to Figure 6 and 7 , the hydroxyl boron nitride fibers (BN-HNO3 fibers and BN-NaOH fibers) synthesized in the above embodiment examples 1-2 are tested for propane oxidative dehydrogenation reaction:

[0051] Propane oxidative dehydrogenation experiment: 200 mg of boron nitride material (20-40 mesh) was placed in the constant temperature zone of a 6 mm inner diameter quartz reaction tube, and the two ends were fixed with quartz wool. The reaction gas (propane 6 mL / min, oxygen 3 mL / min, helium 11 mL / min) was introduced, and the temperature was raised to 460-520°C for reaction, and gas chromatography was used for online analysis.

[0052] Compared with commercial boron nitride, BN-NaOH shows high conversion rate in the whole range, while the selectivity of propylene is similar for the three catalysts, which indicates that the synthesized hydroxyl boron nitride fiber has strong catalytic activity. At 520℃, the conversion rate of BN-NaOH reaches 23.2%, and the selectivity of the desired propylene and olefins reaches 75.2% and 90.1% respectively. Figure 7 It is shown that there is no fluctuation in the propane conversion and product selectivity on BN-NaOH during the reaction of 50h, which reflects the intended catalytic stability of the hydroxyl boron nitride fiber catalyst.

[0053] In conclusion, the hydroxyl boron nitride fiber prepared by the present application has obvious catalytic performance and catalytic stability, which means that it has great application prospect in actual industrial production. In addition, the above-mentioned examples are only used to illustrate a synthesis scheme and application example of the hydroxyl boron nitride fiber, and do not limit the embodiments and protection scope thereof. Based on the above description, one of ordinary skill in the art can make certain forms of changes or modifications. In the examples of the present application, the used examples do not need and cannot be exhausted one by one. Therefore, the obvious changes and modifications derived from the present application are still within the protection scope of the present application.
