Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of molecular sieve preparation, and in particular is a zeolite molecular sieve for oxygen production molecular sieve and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Oxygen molecular sieve is a key component in oxygen generators, used to selectively adsorb impurities such as nitrogen in the air, thereby achieving oxygen separation and purification. The most commonly used molecular sieves are 5A zeolite molecular sieve and 13X molecular sieve.
[0003] Among them, zeolite molecular sieve has a regular microporous skeleton structure and a large specific surface area, which makes it widely used in gas separation, adsorption and catalysis. In oxygen generators, zeolite molecular sieves increase the concentration of oxygen by adsorbing nitrogen and other impurity gases in the air. However, zeolite molecular sieve membranes have defects that reduce their screening effect and separation selectivity; in addition, the pore size of zeolite molecular sieves is small, which limits the mass transfer capacity of the medium, thereby affecting the adsorption performance of the molecular sieve. Therefore, it is necessary to modify it and optimize the performance of zeolite molecular sieves, which is of great significance to improving its application in the field of oxygen production.

[0007] The chitosan modified with phosphate groups is prepared according to the following method: chitosan and bis(4-aminophenyl)phosphate are added to an organic solvent 1, stirred and dispersed uniformly, 4-dimethylaminopyridine and 1-ethyl-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide are added thereto, and the mixture is reacted at 40-70° C. for 12-24 hours.
