Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of molecular sieve materials, in particular to a hierarchical pore SBA-15 molecular sieve and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Molecular sieves are widely used in adsorption, separation, catalysis and other fields due to their unique pore structure, especially in petroleum and chemical industry. With the continuous development of molecular sieve catalytic applications, single-pore molecular sieves cannot meet the diverse needs of catalyst preparation.

[0003] Microporous molecular sieves (diameter less than 2nm) have small pore size and long and narrow pore channels, so it is difficult for large molecules in heavy oil to diffuse into the pore channels, which reduces the reaction in the narrow pore channels of the microporous molecular sieves. The large molecule reactants cannot enter the pore channels, and the narrow and long pore channels have large diffusion resistance, which affects the rapid diffusion of the reaction product molecules, easily leading to deep cracking and coking, and even further leading to rapid deactivation of the molecular sieve. Compared with microporous molecular sieve materials, mesoporous molecular sieves (diameter of 2-50nm) can make up for the limitations of microporous molecular sieves in reactant and reaction product internal diffusion, but due to the amorphous structure of ordered mesoporous molecular sieves, their structural stability is often poor, which limits their application in the catalytic field. The internal structure of mesoporous molecular sieves is long-range ordered and short-range disordered. Macroporous molecular sieves (diameter greater than 50nm) have a more loose structure, usually have a larger specific surface area and pore volume, and have lost the ability to separate molecules due to their large pore size.

[0004] Therefore, an ideal porous material catalyst should have excellent activity, shape selectivity and hydrothermal stability on the one hand, and good diffusion performance on the other hand. Obviously, molecular sieve materials with single micropore, mesopore or macropore structure cannot meet the above performance. Therefore, it is necessary to make up for the structural defects of various single-pore porous materials and to design and prepare hierarchical pore molecular sieve materials containing hierarchical pore structures and realizing cross-scale penetration.

[0005] The existing method for producing molecular sieves has problems of low efficiency, high cost and serious pollution, and the prepared molecular sieves have single pore structure and cannot meet the application requirements. SUMMARY

[0006] To solve the above technical problems, the present application provides a hierarchical pore SBA-15 molecular sieve and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method has high synthesis efficiency, low cost and less pollution, and the synthesized molecular sieve contains hierarchical pore structure and realizes cross-scale penetration.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a method for preparing a hierarchical porous SBA-15 molecular sieve, comprising the following steps:

[0008] S1: Dissolve the nonionic surfactant P123 (templating agent), pore expander and inorganic acid in water to obtain a mixture. Add a silicon source and hydrolyze it in the mixture. After hydrolysis, separate the solid and liquid to obtain the hydrolysis product (solid) and mother liquor.

[0009] S2: Repeat the following steps: Add polyoxyethylene-polyoxypropylene-polyoxyethylene triblock copolymer nonionic surfactant P123, pore expander and inorganic acid to the mother liquor obtained in the previous step and dissolve them. Add silicon source and hydrolyze again. After hydrolysis, separate solid and liquid to obtain hydrolysis product (solid) and mother liquor again.

[0010] S3: Combine the hydrolysis products obtained from S1 and S2, add the final mother liquor to perform hydrothermal crystallization on the combined hydrolysis products, dry and calcine the crystallized products to obtain the multi-level porous SBA-15 molecular sieve.

[0011] The pore-expanding agent includes at least two of the following: hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, PEG800, PEG1000, PEG1500, PEG2000, and AES surfactant.

[0012] This invention prepares multi-level porous molecular sieves by adding pore-expanding agents of different proportions and molecular weights, solving the technical problem that existing molecular sieve materials with single microporous, mesoporous, or macroporous structures cannot simultaneously meet the requirements of excellent activity, shape selectivity, hydrothermal stability, and good diffusion performance. It also solves the problems of low synthesis efficiency, high cost, and serious pollution in molecular sieve synthesis by recycling the mother liquor and using multiple hydrolysis and single crystallization.

[0013] Regarding production efficiency, conventional methods require at least 3 days to produce a batch of hierarchical SBA-15 molecular sieves in a single reactor, with 1 day dedicated to dissolving P123, the pore-expanding agent, and hydrolyzing the silicon source, and 2 days for hydrothermal crystallization. If 8 batches are produced in the same reactor, at least 24 days are needed. The preparation method of this invention combines 8 batches of hydrolysis products and produces the same amount of hierarchical SBA-15 molecular sieves in the same reactor through a single crystallization process without increasing equipment investment, requiring only 10 days (8 days for dissolving P123 and the pore-expanding agent, and hydrolyzing the silicon source in 8 batches, respectively, and 2 days for hydrothermal crystallization). Furthermore, the efficiency increases with the number of batches synthesized.

[0014] This invention adopts mother liquor recycling, which makes full use of the inorganic acid, nonionic surfactant P123 and pore expander in the mother liquor. This not only greatly reduces environmental pollution, but also further reduces the raw material cost of multi-stage porous SBA-15 molecular sieve.
