Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of nanomaterials and relates to an interface catalyst, in particular to an interface catalyst with a high specific surface area and a high number of active sites, and its preparation and application. Background Art
[0002] Ammonium perchlorate (AP) is the most commonly used oxidizer in composite propellants due to its unique thermal decomposition properties. The combustion behavior of AP directly impacts the performance of rocket propellant systems. Therefore, improving the combustion performance of AP and understanding its thermal decomposition behavior are crucial for enhancing the performance of solid rocket propellants. Currently, the addition of combustion catalysts is considered an effective method to improve the thermal decomposition efficiency of AP. Transition metal oxides, as combustion catalysts, can effectively promote the thermal decomposition of oxidizers and enhance the combustion performance of solid propellants. The catalytic effect of transition metal oxides on the thermal decomposition of AP is attributed to various factors, such as semiconductor properties (p-type or n-type semiconductors) and charge or electron transfer processes, but the actual catalytic mechanism remains uncertain. Typical transition metal oxides, such as Fe2O3, TiO2, MnO2, and Co2O3, exhibit excellent catalytic activity for the decomposition of AP. Among these transition metal oxides, Fe2O3 and TiO2 have been widely used due to their high efficiency, abundance, low cost, and non-toxicity.
[0003] In recent years, researchers have made great efforts to improve the catalytic activity of related metal oxides. The general strategies to improve activity mainly include particle size control, morphology modulation, multi-component, etc. Although these methods are effective for the activation of AP, the overall combustion performance of these catalysts is still far from satisfactory because they are prone to changes in particle size, morphology, state and dispersion during the reaction, and the performance after the change is significantly reduced. The development of efficient combustion catalysts with stable performance and maximum active sites is very promising. Considering that the catalytic process generally occurs at the interface between two metal oxides, it is crucial to regulate the interfacial electronic structure and geometric structure to effectively catalyze the decomposition of AP. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of the present invention is to provide an interfacial catalyst with a high specific surface area and a high number of active sites, as well as its preparation and application, to solve the technical problem in the existing technology that the specific surface area and the number of active sites of the interfacial catalyst need to be further improved.
[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:
[0006] The invention discloses an interfacial catalyst with high specific surface area and high number of active sites. The interfacial catalyst uses amorphous activated carbon as a carrier and deposits an interface of two species, Fe2O3 and TiO2, on the surface of the amorphous activated carbon.
[0007] The interface is a Fe2O3-TiO2 interface, a TiO2-Fe2O3 interface, a Fe2O3-TiO2-Fe2O3 interface or a TiO2-Fe2O3-TiO2 interface.
[0008] The present invention also protects a method for preparing an interface catalyst with a high specific surface area and a high number of active sites as described above. The method uses atomic layer deposition to form an interface on a carrier by orderly depositing Fe2O3 species and TiO2 species in a periodic manner.
[0009] The steps of depositing the Fe2O3 species are as follows: firstly depositing an iron source, and then allowing the deposited ferrocene to react chemically with O2 to generate Fe2O3 species.
[0010] The deposition steps of the TiO2 species are as follows: firstly, a titanium source is deposited, and then the deposited titanium tetraisopropoxide is chemically reacted with H2O2 to generate TiO2 species.
[0011] The present invention also has the following technical features:
[0012] Specifically, the deposition step of the Fe2O3 species is step A. A complete step A includes:

[0017] Specifically, the TiO2 species deposition step is step B. A complete step B includes:
[0018] Step B1, under vacuum conditions, lower the reaction chamber temperature to 150° C. and stabilize it, and bring titanium tetraisopropoxide into the reaction chamber by bubbling with an inert carrier gas for deposition. The deposition time is 300 s, and the flow rate of the inert carrier gas is 40 to 100 ml / min.
[0019] In step B2, an inert carrier gas is introduced into the reaction chamber to blow away the unadsorbed titanium tetraisopropoxide in the reaction chamber and the titanium tetraisopropoxide physically adsorbed on the surface. The blowing time is 600 s and the flow rate of the inert carrier gas is 100-200 ml / min.
[0020] In step B3, H2O2 is introduced into the reaction chamber by bubbling to undergo a redox reaction with titanium tetraisopropoxide. The introduction time of H2O2 is 300 s, and the flow rate is 25-60 ml / min.
[0021] Step B4: Introduce an inert carrier gas into the reaction chamber to blow the unreacted molecules and by-products out of the reaction chamber. The blowing time is 600 s and the flow rate of the inert carrier gas is 100-200 ml / min.
[0022] Preferably, in steps A and B, they can be combined according to actual needs, for example (AB) nc (Steps AB are performed alternately, A first, then B, and the whole process is repeated n times), (BA) nc (Steps AB are performed alternately, B first, then A, and the whole process is repeated n times), A xc -B yc (Advanced type: perform x cycles of step A, then y cycles of step B), B yc -A xc (First, perform step B for y times, and then perform step A for x times).
[0023] Preferably, the inert carrier gas is nitrogen or argon.
[0024] Preferably, the number of deposition cycles is 1 to 10 times.
[0025] More preferably, the number of deposition cycles is 1 to 5 times.
[0026] The present invention also protects the use of the interfacial catalyst with high specific surface area and high number of active sites as a catalyst for the thermal decomposition reaction of ammonium perchlorate.

[0045] The specific contents of the present invention are further explained in detail below with reference to the embodiments. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0046] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, all materials and equipment in the present invention are those known in the art.
[0047] Surface and interface catalysis plays a crucial role in many reactions, including those in the chemical industry, electrochemistry, and combustion. In heterogeneous catalysis, the surface and interface of a catalyst are the sites where reactions occur: reactant molecules are adsorbed, activated, converted to products, and desorbed into the gas phase. Furthermore, charge interactions between two transition metal oxides primarily occur at the interface. Due to the complex interfacial effects of the resulting catalysts, understanding the intrinsic interactions between the two components is difficult. Controlled synthesis with well-defined, ordered, and uniform distribution of components is essential for exploring the structural properties and catalytic performance of different surfaces and interfaces. Using unique preparation methods such as atomic layer deposition (ALD), H-titanate@Fe2O3 composites with Fe2O3-H2Ti3O7 interfacial sites were previously prepared using ALD. It was discovered that the interface between the Fe2O3 nanoparticles and the H-titanate support may be the optimal active site for the thermal decomposition of AP. Catalysts with specific interfacial structures are achievable using ALD. Furthermore, the number of interfacial sites of the added catalyst is relatively high in the reaction. Therefore, the development of efficient combustion catalysts with the maximum number of interfacial sites is urgently needed. Therefore, loading interfacial catalysts on activated carbon supports with large specific surface area is a good choice.
[0048] The present invention relates to the preparation of a bimetallic oxide interface catalyst using high-surface-area AC (activated carbon) as a carrier based on atomic layer deposition technology, and its application in catalyzing the thermal decomposition reaction of ammonium perchlorate. The catalyst is prepared by combining Fe2O3 particles and a TiO2 film using atomic layer deposition technology to form a bimetallic oxide interface catalyst, specifically a Fe2O3-TiO2 interface, a TiO2-Fe2O3 interface, a Fe2O3-TiO2-Fe2O3 interface, or a TiO2-Fe2O3-TiO2 interface catalyst. The Fe2O3 and TiO2 film are sequentially deposited on the amorphous activated carbon using atomic layer deposition, and the deposition is performed at least once. Alternatively, the Fe2O3 and TiO2 species can be sequentially deposited on the amorphous activated carbon using atomic layer deposition in a specific arrangement sequence, and the deposition is performed 2 to 10 times.
[0049] Specific embodiments of the present invention are given below. It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the following specific embodiments, and all equivalent modifications made on the basis of the technical solution of this application fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0052] The method comprises the following steps:
[0053] In the first step, the amorphous activated carbon is spread flat on the sample table, then placed in the atomic layer deposition reaction chamber and the outlet is sealed, and a mechanical vacuum pump is used to evacuate the reaction chamber.
[0054] In the second step, the temperature was set and increased. The reaction chamber temperature was set to 350°C, the ferrocene storage tank temperature was set to 95°C, and the Inlet and Outlet temperatures were set to 120°C and 150°C, respectively.
[0055] The third step is to introduce a certain flow of inert carrier gas into the reaction chamber from the inlet of the atomic layer deposition equipment, and use a mechanical pump to evacuate the outlet to stabilize the vacuum degree in the reaction chamber within a certain range.
[0056] In the fourth step, ferrocene was injected into the reaction chamber by bubbling, with a ferrocene carrier gas flow rate of 40 ml / min, a total carrier gas flow rate of 100 ml / min, and an injection time of 300 s, so that the ferrocene AC surface was chemically adsorbed.
[0057] In the fifth step, an inert carrier gas was introduced into the reaction chamber to blow the iron source physically adsorbed on the AC surface away from the surface. The flow rate was 100 ml / min and the introduction time was 600 s.
[0058] In the sixth step, high-purity oxygen was injected into the reaction chamber through the inlet of the equipment. The oxygen flow rate was 25 ml, the total carrier gas flow rate was 100 ml / min, and the injection time was 300 s, so that the oxygen and the iron source adsorbed on the AC surface underwent redox reaction.
[0059] In the seventh step, an inert carrier gas with a flow rate of 100 ml / min was introduced into the reaction chamber to blow away the byproducts and excess oxygen molecules on the AC surface. The inert carrier gas was introduced for 600 s.
[0060] Step 8: Steps 4 to 7 constitute one cycle of iron oxide deposition. Repeat steps 4 to 7 to increase the number of iron oxide deposition cycles to 5, and AC@Fe2O3-5c is now prepared.

The carrier gas flow rate of titanium tetraisopropoxide was 40 ml / min, the total carrier gas flow rate was 100 ml / min, and the injection time was 300 s, so that titanium tetraisopropoxide was chemically adsorbed on the surface of AC@Fe2O3-5c.

[0064] In the twelfth step, hydrogen peroxide vapor molecules were injected into the reaction chamber through the inlet of the equipment. The inert gas flow rate through the hydrogen peroxide path was 40 ml / min, the total carrier gas flow rate was 100 ml / min, and the injection time was 300 s, so that the hydrogen peroxide molecules underwent redox reaction with the titanium source adsorbed on AC@Fe2O3-5c.
[0065] In the thirteenth step, an inert carrier gas with a flow rate of 100 ml / min was introduced into the reaction chamber to blow away the by-products and excess hydrogen peroxide molecules on the sample surface. The introduction time was 600 s.
[0066] Step 14: Step 10 to Step 13 is one cycle of titanium dioxide deposition. Repeat Step 10 to Step 13, increase the number of cycles of titanium dioxide deposition to 5 cycles, and finally prepare
[0067] AC@Fe2O3-5c@TiO2-5c interfacial catalyst.
[0068] Figure 1 This is the transmission electron microscope TEM image of AC@Fe2O3@TiO2 catalyst. Figure 1 It can be seen that the deposition of Fe2O3 and TiO2 did not change the morphology of AC, and Fe2O3 and TiO2 species were not visible under low-magnification electron microscopy, indicating that these two species prepared by atomic layer deposition method are highly dispersed on AC.
[0069] Figure 2 This is the transmission electron microscope (HRTEM) image of the AC@Fe2O3@TiO2 catalyst. It can be seen that Fe2O3 is a particle and TiO2 is a thin film, in which Fe2O3 is distributed inside and TiO2 is on the outside, forming a closely contacted Fe2O3-TiO2 interface site.
[0070] Figure 3 Transmission electron microscopy (STEM) and EDX mapping images of the AC@Fe2O3@TiO2 catalyst show that Fe and Ti are evenly distributed on AC from the elemental distribution maps of Fe and Ti, further proving that Fe2O3 and TiO2 are highly dispersed on AC.
