Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of catalysts, in particular to a Ni-based catalyst for preparing hexamethylene diamine by reductive amination of hexanediol and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Hexamethylene diamine, also known as 1,6-hexanediamine, is widely used in many industries.

[0003] In the chemical industry, hexamethylene diamine is an important chemical intermediate, which is widely used in the production of polyamides such as nylon 66, nylon 610, nylon 612 and nylon 69, hexamethylene diisocyanate, epoxy resin curing agent, organic crosslinking agent, etc. In the petroleum industry, hexamethylene diamine can be used as a surfactant in the process of oil extraction. After chemical modification, hexamethylene diamine can combine with oil in oil to form an emulsion, improving the efficiency of oil extraction. In the agricultural industry, hexamethylene diamine can be used as an efficient insecticide, widely used in large-scale farmland protection and single-plant protection of fruit trees, vegetables, etc. Hexamethylene diamine can kill various pests and viruses, protecting the yield and quality of crops. In the dye industry, hexamethylene diamine is an important intermediate raw material. Through the processing of hexamethylene diamine, various organic dyes can be obtained, which are used for dyeing and printing of fabrics, paper, leather and other materials. In the pharmaceutical industry, hexamethylene diamine can be used as a raw material for various drugs, such as antibiotics, alkaloids, anesthetics, etc. At the same time, hexamethylene diamine can also be used as an intermediate for the synthesis of various drugs. In short, hexamethylene diamine, as a widely used chemical raw material, plays an indispensable role in petroleum, pesticide, dye, pharmaceutical and many other industries.

[0004] In the prior art, hexamethylene diamine is often prepared by reductive amination of hexanediol, which is low in cost and environmentally friendly. However, the conversion rate of hexanediol and the selectivity of hexamethylene diamine are relatively low, and the yield of hexamethylene diamine is not high. For example, patent US4014933A uses activated 10%CoO-10%NiO-4%CuO / Al2O3 as catalyst, 100 parts of 80% hexanediol aqueous solution per hour, 350 parts of liquid ammonia, hydrogen gas is pumped in at 220℃ to 30MPa, the conversion rate of hexanediol is close to 100%, and the yield of hexamethylene diamine is 23%. Luo and An et al. reported in ACS Sustainable Chem. Eng. 2022, 10, 13367-13379 that NiCu / MgAlO alloy derived from hydrotalcite structure catalyzed the reductive amination of hexanediol to prepare hexamethylene diamine, at 180℃, the conversion rate was 77%, the selectivity of hexamethylene diamine was 20%, and the yield of hexamethylene diamine was only 15.4%.

[0005] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems of low yield and poor selectivity of hexamethylene diamine, researchers introduced noble metals into the catalyst for preparing hexamethylene diamine by reducing amination of hexylene glycol. Although the yield and selectivity of hexamethylene diamine are improved, the noble metal is expensive, which still has great difficulty in practical application. For example, patent CN116178168A discloses a non-uniform catalyst composed of a core and an outer layer. The core and the outer layer are both composed of a carrier and a limited amount of active metal (one or more of Co, Ni, Cu) and an additive (one or more of Ru, Pd, Fe, B, Zn, Re, W, Y, etc. metal or oxide). For example, the 20Ni10Co2.5Re2B / 3Ni1Co0.6B-Al2O3 catalyst catalyzes the reducing amination of hexylene glycol. First, the Al2O3 is impregnated with the precursors of Ni, Co, Re and B at the same time, and then Ni, Co, Re and B are loaded again after calcination. Among them, the liquid volume space velocity of hexylene glycol is 0.6h -1 , the molar ratio of ammonia: hexylene glycol: hydrogen is 16:1:0.7, the conversion rate of hexylene glycol is 90.5%, the selectivity of hexamethylene diamine is 93.5%, and the yield of hexamethylene diamine is 84.6%. However, the catalyst uses the noble metal catalyst Re, which is expensive. When using the catalyst 20Ni10Co / 3Ni1Co-Al2O3 without Re under the same reaction conditions, the conversion rate is 46.7%, the selectivity of hexamethylene diamine is 23.2%, and the yield of hexamethylene diamine is only 10.8%.

[0006] In order to reduce the production cost, researchers propose to use a secondary amine inhibitor to prepare a catalyst for preparing hexamethylene diamine by reducing amination of hexylene glycol. For example, patent CN115772087A provides a method for preparing hexamethylene diamine by reducing amination of hexylene glycol, which uses a secondary amine inhibitor and a method of pre-activating the catalyst to improve the reaction performance. The catalyst is a Ni / ZrO2 / Al2O3 catalyst, which is pre-activated with ammonia. The secondary amine inhibitor is water, ammonia or urea. The conversion rate is 94.38%, the selectivity of hexamethylene diamine is 94.68%, and the yield of hexamethylene diamine is 89.4%. However, the use of a secondary amine inhibitor increases the difficulty of separation, which is not conducive to industrial production.

[0007] Therefore, it is of great significance to research a new Ni-based catalyst for preparing hexamethylene diamine by reducing amination of hexylene glycol for the preparation and application of hexamethylene diamine. SUMMARY
