Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application relates to the technical field of catalyst preparation, in particular to a high-thermal-stability noble metal catalyst and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Most of the existing automobile exhaust aftertreatment catalysts are mainly supported noble metal catalysts, and the number of effective active centers determines the activity of the catalysts. In particular, in the fierce competitive environment, the loading amount of noble metal in the noble metal catalysts is getting lower and lower. GB 17691-2018 stipulates that the endurance mileage of heavy-duty vehicles is 700,000 kilometers, and GB 18352-2016 stipulates that the endurance mileage of light-duty vehicles is 200,000 kilometers, which is a great challenge to the endurance performance of the aftertreatment catalysts. The noble metal catalysts are in the exhaust pipe of the engine, and are prone to high-temperature sintering of noble metals or collapse of catalytic materials, agglomeration or burying of active centers, thereby reducing the performance of the catalysts, because they are in the high-temperature exhaust for a long time. Meanwhile, various chemical elements such as S, P and Ca in the exhaust due to engine oil or fuel can also cause chemical poisoning or sulfur poisoning of the active centers, thereby reducing the performance of the catalysts. In order to not reduce the initial activity of the noble metal catalysts, high dispersion technology is needed to ensure sufficient active centers, and the higher the dispersion degree of noble metals in the catalysts, the smaller the noble metal nanoparticles. According to the principle of thermodynamics, the smaller the nanoparticles, the higher the surface chemical potential, and the more prone to agglomeration in the use process or high-temperature environment. Therefore, in addition to using high dispersion technology to ensure the activity of the catalysts, noble metal stabilization technology is also needed to ensure the endurance performance of the catalysts, and it is extremely challenging to improve the endurance performance of the automobile exhaust aftertreatment catalysts.

[0003] The sintering of the active centers of the noble metal catalysts is mainly affected by thermodynamic and kinetic factors, and the main ways to control the sintering of noble metals are: 1. Controlling the uniformity of the size of noble metal particles to reduce the migration of particles caused by thermodynamic factors; 2. Using the strong interaction between the metal and the carrier to improve the stability of the noble metal particles, which is to prevent the migration of noble metals by using the strong chemical bonding effect between the metal and the carrier; 3. Using mechanical confinement to control the migration of noble metal particles; 4. Using energy barriers to prevent the migration of noble metal particles. Among them, the strong interaction between the metal and the carrier. The mechanical confinement mode is to confine the noble metal nanoparticles in a fixed position, and the reactants and products can normally diffuse in and out, but the noble metal nanoparticles cannot migrate due to the interception of surrounding atoms at high temperatures, thereby preventing the growth of noble metal particles. Especially in the use environment of automobile exhaust catalysts, the exhaust temperature is high, and the noble metal nanoparticles are prone to migration and sintering. If the mechanical confinement mode is adopted, the noble metal nanoparticles are locked in fixed adsorption sites, and the migration probability is reduced at high temperatures, thereby improving the stability of the catalysts.

[0004] The noble metal catalyst active center sintering prevention by mechanical confinement mode needs to limit the noble metal nanoparticles in fixed position, and then protect the noble metal nanoparticles from migration at high temperature by protective layer, and the protective layer needs to enable the reactants and products to diffuse in and out normally, but the existing catalysts cannot achieve the above.

[0107] Test Example 1

[0108] The catalysts of Example 1 and Comparative Example 1 were subjected to SEM testing, as shown in Figure 1 The test results of the catalyst of Example 1 are shown in Table 1, and the test results of the catalyst of Comparative Example 1 are shown in Table 2.

[0109] The sintering of the active centers of the noble metal catalyst is mainly affected by thermodynamic and kinetic factors. The essence of the sintering of the metal catalyst is the reduction of the chemical potential of the system, and the temperature is the main physical inducing factor causing sintering. The high temperature increases the kinetic energy of the metal, and regardless of the sintering mechanism, the higher temperature will affect the stability of the metal catalyst, causing the breaking of the atomic-atomic bond on the surface of the metal particles or the breaking of the related bond between the metal atoms and the support surface, thereby significantly affecting the sintering rate and accelerating the sintering process. The main sintering modes are particle migration and Ostwald ripening. The catalyst of the present application limits the noble metal nanoparticles to a fixed position by a mechanical confinement mode, and the reactants and products can normally diffuse in and out, as shown in FIG. 1. The silicon coating layer is uniformly distributed on the surface of the noble metal catalyst, and no separate silicon dioxide particles are formed, which does not cause embedding of the noble metal nanoparticles of the catalyst and does not affect the initial activity of the catalyst. During the use of the catalyst or after high-temperature calcination, the aging of the noble metal nanoparticles is only the sintering and agglomeration of the noble metal in the porous silicon dioxide cage, and no large-area migration occurs, as shown in FIG. 2. Therefore, the noble metal nanoparticles will grow slightly after aging, but will not grow indefinitely. The porous protection layer of silicon dioxide can effectively prevent the large-area migration and agglomeration of the noble metal, effectively control the size of the noble metal nanoparticles after aging, and prevent the sintering of the active centers of the noble metal catalyst. The noble metal is isolated by the porous protection layer of silicon dioxide, which can effectively control the size of the noble metal nanoparticles after aging, prevent the migration and agglomeration of the noble metal in a large area, improve the thermal stability of the noble metal catalyst, and ensure the durability of the catalyst. Figure 3 Figure 4 At the same time, the uniformly distributed porous protection layer of silicon dioxide is acidic, and the addition of silicon dioxide can improve the acidity of the catalyst, promote the adsorption of the reactants, and enhance the interface interaction between the silicon dioxide and the active components of the noble metal, as shown in FIG. 3. It can also effectively repel SO2 in the tail gas, prevent SO2 from combining with the noble metal nanoparticles or the catalytic material to cause sulfur poisoning and reduce the performance, and further improve the performance and sulfur resistance of the catalyst.

Figure 5

[0111] Test Example 2

[0112] The catalysts of Example 1 and Comparative Example 1 were subjected to XRD testing, and the test results are shown in FIG. 4. It can be seen that: Figure 6 The catalysts of Example 1 and Comparative Example 1 were subjected to XRD testing, and the test results are shown in FIG. 4. It can be seen that:​​

[0113] After thermal aging of catalyst S1 relative to catalyst D1, the Pt characteristic peak half-peak width is smaller, and the nanoparticles are smaller. In the SEM pictures described above, the noble metal particle distribution of catalyst S1 is more uniform relative to catalyst D1, and the particle size is smaller, further confirming the conclusion of XRD.

[0114] Test Example 3

[0115] The catalysts of Examples 1-4 and Comparative Examples 1-3 were subjected to aging tests under the following conditions: 650°C, 100h, 10% H2O with Air, and the fresh and aged catalysts were subjected to catalytic performance tests under the following conditions: C3H6: 333.3ppm, CO: 1000ppm, NO: 1000ppm, O2: 8%, CO2: 8%, H2O: 7%, and the balance being N2, at a test space velocity of 120000h-1 -1 , and the test temperature was increased from 120°C to 450°C at a rate of 5°C / min, and the test results are shown in Table 1.

[0116] Table 1 Comparison of catalytic performance of catalysts of Examples 1-4 and Comparative Examples 1-3

[0117]

[0118] As can be seen from the data in Table 1, when the thickness of the silica protective layer is 2-50nm and the pore size is 2-10nm, the fresh and aged catalysts of Examples 1-4 have good performance. When the thickness of the silica protective layer exceeds 50nm, the thickness of the protective layer is too large, affecting the mass transfer of pollutants, so the activity of the fresh catalyst is reduced, and the relative degradation rate of the aged catalyst is not significantly increased; when the pore size of the silica protective layer exceeds 10nm, the pore size of the protective layer is too large, and during hydrothermal aging, the noble metal particles migrate severely, so the degradation of the aged catalyst is severe; using ceria as a protective layer, because the oxygen electron binding energy of Ce element itself is weak, the noble metal is easy to form a high valence state, and the activity is low during the reaction. However, after aging, the noble metal is not easy to migrate due to the formation of Ce-O-Pt bond, so the degradation rate of the catalyst is low, and thus it can be seen that the effect of using ceria as a protective layer is not as good as that of using silica; the catalyst D5 of Comparative Example 5 has an additional silica layer on the catalyst coating, and the preparation method is different from that of the silica layer of the present application, which has a small effect on the fresh performance of the catalyst, but the performance of the aged catalyst is severely degraded, and the reason is that the silica layer is not effectively distributed on the surface of the noble metal catalytic material, and has not effectively protected the noble metal nanoparticles.

[0119] The catalysts of Example 1 and Comparative Example 1 were subjected to sulfurization test, and the anti-sulfur performance test procedure was as follows: (1) fresh activity test; (2) sulfurization, sulfurization conditions: 250℃, 350ppm SO2, 100000h-1, 10%O2, 7%H2O, 1h; (3) direct test of catalytic performance after sulfurization; (4) desulfurization, desulfurization conditions: 550℃ 1h; (5) performance test after desulfurization, test atmosphere: C3H6: 333.3ppm, CO: 1000ppm, NO: 1000ppm, O2: 8%, CO2: 8%, H2O: 7%, the rest was N2, test space velocity 120000h-1, test temperature was from 120℃ to 450℃ at a rate of 5℃ / min, and the test results were shown in Table 2. -1 , test temperature was from 120℃ to 450℃ at a rate of 5℃ / min, and the test results were shown in Table 2.

[0120] Table 2 Comparison of anti-sulfur performance of catalysts of Example 1 and Comparative Example 1

[0121]

[0122] As can be seen from the data in Table 2, the catalyst S1 with a silica protective layer has better anti-sulfur performance than the catalyst D1 of Comparative Example 1, the performance degradation of the catalyst after sulfurization is lower, and the performance of the catalyst after desulfurization by heat treatment is basically completely restored, but the performance of the catalyst D1 after desulfurization is not completely restored, and part of the sulfur has formed a difficult-to-decompose sulfate; the catalyst D4 has poor anti-sulfur performance relative to the catalyst S1, mainly because the Ce element is alkaline and is more prone to absorb acidic SO2 to form a sulfate, and even heat treatment can only partially restore the performance reduction caused by physical adsorption of sulfite.
