Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of hydrogenation catalytic nanomaterials technology, and specifically relates to a method for preparing a carbon-nitrogen layer modified platinum / alumina composite hydrogenation catalyst. Background Technology
[0002] In recent years, scientific progress and development have pushed the precision of chemical preparation to unprecedented heights. Hydrogenation, a common process in the biopharmaceutical and fine chemical industries, demands large quantities of catalysts and faces high technological barriers. To date, experts and scholars have explored various semiconductor materials (such as metal oxides, sulfides, and nitride oxides) as supports. Among them, alumina has attracted widespread attention due to its high mechanical strength and relatively high chemical stability. Noble metal nanoparticles are typically chosen as the active species for the support, mainly due to the strong metal-support interaction (SMSI) between the noble metal nanoparticles and the support. However, the controllable loading and synthesis of noble metal nanoparticles presents several technical challenges, including the following:
[0003] (1) In catalytic applications including heterogeneous catalysis, electrocatalysis and hydrogenation catalysis, the shear force generated by the mutual movement of the reaction system can easily lead to the loss of precious metal species due to the destructive force on the active sites. The anchoring and protection of precious metal corner sites is a major problem.
[0004] (2) The enhancement of the activity of noble metals usually relies on the nano-size effect. However, nano-sized noble metals are prone to agglomeration at high temperatures, and the anti-agglomeration and anti-sintering of noble metal nanoparticles is a major challenge.
[0005] (3) Improving the conductivity of the interface of noble metal-semiconductor heterojunction is a major challenge. How to improve the interfacial conductivity of composite catalysts while ensuring catalytic activity is an urgent problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention
[0006] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention provides a method for preparing a carbon-nitrogen layer-modified platinum / alumina composite hydrogenation catalyst. This invention uses near-ultraviolet (UVA) light (wavelength 200nm-400nm) as the photoreduction driving light source. In a layered liquid crystal template pre-dispersed uniformly with chloroplatinic acid, in-situ UV irradiation reduces Pt ions to generate ultrafine Pt nanoparticles. These nanoparticles are then mixed with alumina microspheres and subjected to a one-step calcination reduction process to reduce the remaining unreacted high-valence free Pt to elemental Pt nanoparticles. Simultaneously, the liquid crystal is converted into a carbon-nitrogen layer, yielding a carbon-nitrogen layer-modified platinum / alumina composite catalyst (CN-Pt / Al2O3).
[0007] The technical solution adopted in this invention is as follows:

[0010] (2) Disperse the mixture obtained in step (1) in ethanol, then add alumina spheres, ultrasonically disperse evenly, and dry at 100°C;
[0011] (3) The product dried in step (2) is heated and calcined in air to obtain a carbon-nitrogen layer modified platinum / alumina composite hydrogenation catalyst CN-Pt / Al2O3.
[0012] Preferably, in step (1), the amount of chloroplatinic acid hexahydrate used is 1.3 mg, 2.6 mg, 5.2 mg and 10.4 mg; the amount of deionized water used is 1.28 mL; and the power of the ultraviolet lamp is 40 W.
[0013] Preferably, the amount of camphor sulfonic acid used in step (1) is 0.23g; the molar ratio of camphor sulfonic acid to hexadecylpyridine chloride is 1:1.

[0015] Preferably, the heating and calcining temperature in step (3) is 550°C and the calcination time is 1 hour.
[0016] The beneficial effects of this invention are: the preparation method is simple and easy to implement, and the preparation conditions are easy to control.

[0044] Figure 3 Raman spectra of the CN-Pt / Al2O3 catalysts prepared in Examples 1-4 and the Pt / Al2O3 catalyst prepared in Comparative Example 1 are shown. Compared with pure Al2O3, the Raman band of Eg is significantly broadened and its intensity decreases. Furthermore, at 143.1 cm⁻¹... -1 The red shift of the Eg peak at the location is related to the strong interaction (SMSI) between the support and the noble metal during calcination. The higher the content, the more obvious the red shift phenomenon caused by the SMSI interaction during calcination.
