Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of molecular sieves, and in particular to a ZSM-5 molecular sieve and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Molecular sieves are a class of materials with three-dimensional, four-connected frameworks formed by shared vertices between phosphorus-oxygen tetrahedra or aluminum-oxygen tetrahedra. Due to their high thermal and hydrothermal stability, variable topology, and adjustable pore size, molecular sieves have broad and in-depth applications in catalysis, adsorption, and ion exchange.

[0003] ZSM-5 zeolite is a type of mesoporous molecular sieve with ten-membered ring cross-linked channels (straight channels with a pore size of 0.51×0.55nm along the B-axis and zigzag channels with a pore size of 0.53×0.56nm along the A-axis) and an MFI topology. ZSM-5 zeolite can be used in reactions such as alkylation, aromatization, and methanol to olefins (MTO). However, due to the limitations of the zeolite's nanopore structure, the diffusion rate of reactants and products in catalytic reactions is limited, resulting in severe carbon deposition on the catalyst. Constructing a multi-level pore structure in ZSM-5 zeolite is considered an effective way to improve the material's catalytic performance.

[0004] At present, multi-level pore ZSM-5 molecular sieves are usually prepared by post-treatment method and template method. The post-treatment method is to use acid or alkali to treat the microporous ZSM-5 molecular sieve to obtain a ZSM-5 molecular sieve with a multi-level pore structure. However, the post-treatment method will reduce the crystallinity of the ZSM-5 molecular sieve, produce a large amount of salt-containing wastewater, increase energy consumption, and become a limitation in its industrial application of molecular sieves. The preparation of multi-level pore ZSM-5 molecular sieves usually requires the addition of expensive mesoporous templates, and the mesoporous templates need to be calcined and removed later, which also increases the preparation cost of multi-level pore molecular sieves. At the same time, the traditional hydrothermal method for synthesizing molecular sieves often requires the consumption of a large amount of water solvent, producing a large amount of high-COD wastewater.

[0005] CN106185979A discloses a method for preparing a multi-level pore ZSM-5 molecular sieve. The method uses non-metallic mineral diatomite with a macroporous structure as a silicon source and utilizes a solid-phase solvent-free method to synthesize a ZSM-5 molecular sieve with a multi-level pore structure. However, since the non-metallic mineral diatomite contains a large amount of impurities, the crystallinity of the ZSM-5 molecular sieve is reduced. As a result, the prepared ZSM-5 molecular sieve has a large particle size and a long crystallization time. Summary of the Invention

[0006] In order to overcome the above technical problems, the present invention provides a ZSM-5 molecular sieve and a preparation method thereof. The ZSM-5 molecular sieve has a rich multi-level pore structure and a grain size between 50-150 nm.

[0007] During the synthesis of ZSM-5 molecular sieves, tetrapropyl quaternary ammonium salt (or tetrapropyl quaternary ammonium base) is usually introduced as a template. It is located in the pores or cages of the molecular sieve and plays the following roles in the formation of specific pores or cage structures (MFI structures): (1) space filling; (2) structural guidance. However, the ZSM-5 molecular sieve synthesized from tetrapropyl quaternary ammonium salt and inorganic substances only has a microporous structure, not a mesoporous structure. In the synthesis of mesoporous materials, the mesoporous template is usually used in conjunction with the raw materials to synthesize mesoporous materials, but conventional surfactants cannot guide the formation of MFI structures. Conventional understanding of those skilled in the art is, if the molecular size of template agent changes, unpredictable to the structural influence of the molecular sieve finally obtained, sometimes even can't obtain the molecular sieve (RRXu, WQPang, JHYu, QSHuo and JSChen, Chemistry of Zeolites and Related Porous Materials, Wiley, Singapore, 2007.), be difficult to realize in prior art and adopt a kind of template agent to synthesize the ZSM-5 molecular sieve with MFI structure, with micropore and mesoporous structure simultaneously.Yet the inventor finds in research process, when the molecular size synthesized by the present invention is combined with solid phase method greater than the template agent of tetrapropyl quaternary ammonium salt, the molecular sieve prepared not only has MFI structure, and contains micropore and mesoporous structure simultaneously, namely prepared the ZSM-5 molecular sieve with multi-level pore structure.

[0008] The first aspect of the present invention provides a method for preparing a ZSM-5 molecular sieve, comprising: mixing a silicon source, an aluminum source, an alkali source and a template, and then sequentially subjecting the resulting mixture to solid phase crystallization and calcination; wherein the template comprises at least one of the compounds represented by formula (1),

[0009]

[0010] Among them, R1 is a C2-C6 alkylene group, preferably a straight-chain alkylene group, and R2 is a C3-C5 straight-chain alkyl group, preferably a propyl group.

[0011] The "solid phase crystallization" mentioned in the present invention is relative to the "hydrothermal crystallization" in the hydrothermal synthesis of molecular sieves. The "solid phase crystallization" mentioned in the present invention refers to the preparation of ZSM-5 molecular sieves using a solid phase method, that is, the present invention does not require additional water to be added during the preparation of ZSM-5 molecular sieves.

[0012] The second aspect of the present invention provides a ZSM-5 molecular sieve prepared by the above method.

[0013] A third aspect of the present invention provides an application of the above-mentioned ZSM-5 molecular sieve in methanol to olefins.

[0014] Through the above technical solution, the present invention achieves the following beneficial effects:

[0015] After the template prepared by the present invention is mixed with a silicon source, an aluminum source, and an alkali source, a multi-level pore ZSM-5 molecular sieve is prepared without adding a solvent or a mesoporous template. The molecular sieve has an average grain size of 50-150 nm, an average mesopore diameter of 8-20 nm, and a specific surface area of ​​300-500 m 2 / g, the total pore volume is 0.2-0.4mL / g, the mesopore volume is 0.1-0.25mL / g, and the micropore volume is 0.09-0.15mL / g.

[0016] The multi-level pore ZSM-5 molecular sieve of the present invention does not require the addition of water during its preparation, resulting in a simple preparation method, a short crystallization time, low energy consumption, and reduced environmental pollution (less discharge of high-salt wastewater). Furthermore, the multi-level pore ZSM-5 molecular sieve does not require the addition of expensive mesoporous template agents (such as hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide), thereby reducing the production cost of the multi-level pore ZSM-5 molecular sieve.

[0017] When the multi-level pore ZSM-5 molecular sieve of the present invention is used in methanol to olefins, it has a higher conversion rate and a longer service life. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
