Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of inorganic material preparation technology, specifically to a titanium-silicon molecular sieve, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Titanium silicate molecular sieves refer to a class of heteroatom molecular sieves containing a titanium framework. Currently synthesized microporous titanium silicate molecular sieves include TS-1 (MFI structure), TS-2 (MEL structure), Ti-Beta (BEA structure), Ti-ZSM-12 (MTW structure), and Ti-MCM-22 (MWW structure), while mesoporous titanium silicate molecular sieves include Ti-MCM-41 and Ti-SBA-15. The development and application of titanium silicate molecular sieves have successfully expanded zeolite molecular sieves from the field of acid catalysis to the field of catalytic oxidation, which is of milestone significance. Among them, TS-1, first published by the Italian company Enichem in 1983, is the most representative titanium silicate molecular sieve. TS-1 has an MFI topology and a two-dimensional ten-membered ring channel system. Its
[100] direction is a straight channel with a pore size of 0.51×0.55nm, and the
[010] direction is a sinusoidal channel with a pore size of 0.53×0.56nm. Due to the introduction of Ti atoms and its unique pore structure, the oxidation system composed of TS-1 and H2O2 has advantages such as mild reaction conditions, environmentally friendly oxidation process, and good selectivity of oxidation products in the oxidation of organic matter. Currently, this catalytic oxidation system can be widely used in reactions such as alkane oxidation, olefin epoxidation, phenol hydroxylation, ketone (aldehyde) ammonium oximeation, and oil oxidative desulfurization. Industrial applications have been successively achieved in phenol hydroxylation, ketone (cyclohexanone, butanone, acetone) ammonium oximeation, and propylene epoxidation.
[0003] TS-1, a titanium-silicon molecular sieve, is currently the most widely used titanium-containing molecular sieve. With a pore size of approximately 0.56 nm, it exhibits unique confinement and shape-selective effects in the conversion of low-molecular-weight hydrocarbons. However, due to the limitation of its pore size, its conversion ability for high-molecular-weight hydrocarbons is relatively weak.
[0004] Ti-containing heteroatom molecular sieves have a large number of silanol defects inside, making them highly hydrophilic. When hydrogen peroxide aqueous solution is used as an oxidant for the reaction, they readily adsorb water molecules, forming a hydrophilic environment in the pores. This hinders the adsorption, diffusion, and reaction of organic reactants, severely affecting the catalytic performance of the molecular sieve. Summary of the Invention

[0193] Application test cases
[0194] This test example is used to evaluate the performance of the titanium-silicon molecular sieves prepared in the comparative example and the embodiment as catalysts in the catalytic amination reaction of cyclohexanone. Specifically, the following process is included:
[0195] The cyclohexanone amination reaction was carried out in a 250 ml three-necked flask reaction apparatus equipped with an automatic temperature-controlled water bath, magnetic stirring, and reflux condenser. Samples prepared in the above examples and comparative examples were added to a three-necked flask at a ratio of 1.00 g of sample, 10 g (0.14 mol) of tert-butanol solvent, and 9.8 g (0.1 mol) of cyclohexanone (catalyst to cyclohexanone mass ratio of 0.1). The flask was then placed in a water bath at a preset reaction temperature of 80 °C. Using a peristaltic pump, 13.7 g (0.12 mol) of 30% hydrogen peroxide and 28.1 g (0.2 mol) of 25% ammonia solution were simultaneously added dropwise, with a molar ratio of cyclohexanone:ammonia:hydrogen peroxide:solvent of 1:2:1.2:1.35. The reaction was stopped after 0.5 h, rapidly cooled, and the liquid product was obtained by filtration and composition determination. The results are listed in Table 3 below.
[0196] For the long-cycle reaction, 1.00 g of the obtained sample was placed in a 100 mL slurry bed reactor equipped with continuous feed and membrane separation device. Under stirring, 30% hydrogen peroxide (mass fraction 30%) was added at a rate of 24.7 mL / h, 25% ammonia (mass fraction 25%) was added at a rate of 61.7 mL / h, and a mixture of cyclohexanone and tert-butanol (cyclohexanone to tert-butanol volume ratio 1:2) was added at a rate of 72.2 mL / h, while simultaneously being continuously discharged at the same rate. The reaction temperature was maintained at 80 °C for 120 h, and then samples were taken for analysis every 12 h. The data in the "Long-cycle Reaction Results" column of Table 3 are the average of the five sampling results after 120 h of reaction.
[0197] Cyclohexanone conversion rate (%) = (moles of cyclohexanone in the feed - moles of cyclohexanone in the product) / moles of cyclohexanone in the feed × 100%;
[0198] Cyclohexanone oxime selectivity (%) = number of moles of cyclohexanone oxime generated in the product / number of moles of cyclohexanone consumed to generate all products × 100%;
[0199] Cyclohexanone conversion rate reduction (%) = (0.5h cyclohexanone conversion rate - 120h cyclohexanone conversion rate) / 0.5h cyclohexanone conversion rate × 100%;
[0200] Cyclohexanone oxime selectivity reduction rate (%) = (0.5h cyclohexanone oxime selectivity - 120h cyclohexanone oxime selectivity) / 0.5h cyclohexanone oxime selectivity × 100%.
[0201] The reaction products were analyzed by gas chromatography, and the results were quantified using the external standard method. The chromatographic conditions were as follows: Agilent-6890 chromatograph, HP-5 capillary column, injection volume 0.5 μL, injection port temperature 280℃. Column temperature was held at 100℃ for 2 min, then increased to 250℃ at a rate of 15℃ / min and held for 10 min. An FID detector was used, with a detector temperature of 300℃.

[0203]
[0204]
[0205] Based on the data in Tables 1 to 3 above, we can conclude that:
[0206] Comparative Example 1 did not add a second template agent during the preparation of titanium-silicon molecular sieves, and Comparative Example 2 did not add a second template agent during the preparation of titanium-silicon molecular sieves, nor did it undergo acid treatment and second hydrothermal crystallization treatment. Compared with the titanium-silicon molecular sieves D-1 to D-2 prepared by Comparative Examples 1 to 15, the titanium-silicon molecular sieves prepared by the method provided in this disclosure can obtain higher cyclohexanone conversion rate and cyclohexanone oxime selectivity in the catalytic cyclohexanone amination oxime reaction.
[0207] Compared with Examples 6-10, Examples 1-5 and 11-12 underwent acid treatment and a second hydrothermal crystallization treatment during the molecular sieve synthesis process. Compared with the titanium-silicon molecular sieves prepared in Examples 6-10, the I1 values of the titanium-silicon molecular sieves prepared in Examples 1-5 and 11-12 are preferably in the range of 3.03-5.05, and the calculated I0 is in the range of 45-75%. The titanium-silicon molecular sieves prepared in Examples 1-5 and 11-12 can obtain higher cyclohexanone conversion rate and cyclohexanone oxime selectivity in the catalytic cyclohexanone amination oxime reaction.
[0208] Comparing Example 1 and Example 13, it can be seen that the amount of raw materials added in Example 1 during the synthesis of titanium-silicon molecular sieves is within the preferred range of "the molar ratio of silicon source: titanium source: composite template agent: water is 1:(0.010~0.035):(0.10~0.20):(10~30), and the molar ratio of the first template agent to the second template agent is 1:(0.03~0.08)". The amount of raw materials added in Example 13 is not within this preferred range, and the total hydroxyl area I1 of the infrared hydroxyl spectrum of the titanium-silicon molecular sieve is not in the range of 3.03~5.05. Compared with the titanium-silicon molecular sieve prepared in Example 13, the titanium-silicon molecular sieve prepared in Example 1 can obtain higher cyclohexanone conversion rate and cyclohexanone oxime selectivity in the catalytic cyclohexanone amination oxime reaction, and the reduction rate of cyclohexanone conversion rate and the reduction rate of cyclohexanone oxime selectivity under long-term reaction conditions are lower, and the stability is better.
[0209] Comparing Example 1 and Example 15, it can be seen that the preparation conditions of Example 1 are within the preferred implementation range provided in this disclosure, while those of Example 15 are not within the preferred range. Furthermore, the total hydroxyl area I1 of the infrared hydroxyl spectrum of the titanium-silicon molecular sieve is not in the range of 3.03 to 5.05. Compared with the titanium-silicon molecular sieve prepared in Example 15, the titanium-silicon molecular sieve prepared in Example 1 can obtain higher cyclohexanone conversion and cyclohexanone oxime selectivity in the catalytic cyclohexanone amination oxime reaction, and the reduction rate of cyclohexanone conversion and cyclohexanone oxime selectivity under long-term reaction conditions is lower, and the stability is better.
[0210] Diffusion test case
[0211] This test example is used to evaluate the hydrophilic and lipophilic properties of the molecular sieves prepared in the examples and comparative examples. Specifically, it includes the following steps:
[0212] The packed column in the gas chromatograph was replaced with a zero-length column filled with the sample to be tested. Nitrogen was used as the carrier gas, the flow rate was 10 mL / min, and the sample was pretreated at 200℃ for 1 h in the column oven. During the experiment, the temperature was kept constant at 200℃. A carrier gas carrying a certain concentration of cyclohexane vapor was passed through the zero-length column. When the gas chromatograph detector signal remained basically unchanged, cyclohexane reached adsorption equilibrium, and this concentration was taken as c0. Subsequently, the gas flowing through the long column was switched to pure carrier gas, and this moment was taken as t0. The diffusion curve was measured and recorded, and the diffusion coefficient of the titanium-silicon molecular sieve was obtained from the curve. The diffusion test results are listed in Table 4 below; the relative diffusion coefficients in Table 4 are compared with the diffusion coefficient of the titanium-silicon molecular sieve D-2 prepared in Comparative Example 2.
[0213] Table 4
[0214]
[0215]
[0216] As can be seen from the data in Table 4 above, the titanium-silicon molecular sieve prepared in this embodiment has a high diffusion coefficient, indicating that cyclohexane has better diffusion performance and better oleophilicity in the titanium-silicon molecular sieve prepared in this embodiment.
[0217] Compared with Examples 6-10, the titanium-silicon molecular sieves prepared in Examples 1-5 and 11-12 have higher relative diffusion coefficients, indicating that the titanium-silicon molecular sieves prepared by acid treatment and second hydrothermal crystallization treatment in the molecular sieve synthesis process have better diffusion performance and better oleophilicity.
[0218] Comparing Example 1 with Examples 13 and 15, it can be seen that the titanium-silicon molecular sieve synthesized in Example 1 according to the preferred raw material addition amount and optimized preparation conditions has a higher relative diffusion coefficient, better diffusion performance, and better oleophilicity.
