Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a supported single atom / nano cluster composite noble metal catalyst and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Supported noble metal catalysts have been widely studied and applied due to their high activity, selectivity and stability in many reactions. In previous studies, researchers have been committed to highly dispersing noble metals to nanometers (2-10nm), sub-nanometers (<2nm) and even single atoms to improve the effective utilization of metal atoms and the reaction rate per unit active site. In some catalytic reactions, especially when two or more molecules are involved in adsorption and activation, single dispersed active species often cannot meet the requirements of simultaneous adsorption and activation of multiple molecules. Therefore, in recent years, single atom and nanoparticle composite catalysts have begun to receive attention and research. For example, the following literature discloses research content:
[0003] 1) J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2023, 145, 9540 reports a laser ablation strategy for preparing a catalyst containing both single atoms and nanoparticles for CO oxidation. Laser irradiation enables the redispersion of Pt nanoparticles, dispersing some Pt particles into single atoms. This allows for full CO conversion at 250°C in the CO oxidation reaction.
[0004] 2) Reference J.Am.Chem.Soc.2024,146,35,24440 prepared Pd single atoms by ion exchange and Pd nanoclusters by photodeposition method for photocatalytic methanol dehydrogenation reaction.
[0005] 3) In the literature J.Energy Chem.2023,79,535, a dual-sized MOF-derived Co catalyst of single-atom Co and highly dispersed nanoparticle Co was prepared by in situ evaporation method for the cascade demethoxylation and dearomatization of lignin-derived o-methoxyphenol to cyclohexanol.
[0006] However, the methods disclosed in the aforementioned literature present the following technical challenges: the catalyst preparation steps are relatively complex, requiring high equipment requirements and typically requiring two or more heat treatments. The precious metals in the catalysts struggle to maintain structural stability, making it difficult to achieve a controlled dispersion scale. Furthermore, the support is not universally applicable, with some methods being applicable only to oxide supports and others only to carbon supports. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a method for preparing single-atom and nanoparticle composite catalysts that is universally applicable, has a controllable single-atom / nanoparticle ratio, is structurally stable, and undergoes mild, environmentally friendly preparation conditions. Summary of the Invention
[0007] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a method for preparing a supported single atom / nanocluster composite catalyst, which has the characteristics of universal carrier and controllable single atom / nanocluster ratio. First, single atoms are loaded by ligand complexation coupled thermal shock method, and then nanoclusters are loaded by sol impregnation method. Since H2 is used for thermal shock to obtain a single-atom dispersed catalyst during the preparation process, and nanoclusters are obtained by alcohol-base reduction, secondary heat treatment and reduction steps are avoided, and the single atoms and nanoclusters in the catalyst are synthesized in proportion, and the structure is stable. Another technical problem solved by the present invention is that the single atom / nanocluster composite catalyst obtained by the preparation method of the present invention shows higher oxidation performance than pure single atoms and pure nanoclusters in CO oxidation reaction. Compared with the prior art, the preparation process of the present invention is simple, does not require secondary heat treatment and reduction treatment, is conducive to the synthesis of single atoms and nanoclusters in the catalyst in proportion, and has good carrier universality, and is applicable to both oxide carriers and carbon carriers.
[0008] The catalyst of the present invention is a single-atom / nanocluster composite catalyst, in which the ratio of single atoms in the single-atom / nanocluster can be controlled within a range of 10 to 90%, and the nanocluster particle size is controlled to be 1 to 2 nm. In terms of preparation method, the single-atom catalyst is loaded with single atoms through a coordination complex coupled thermal shock method, while the nanoclusters are loaded through a sol-gel impregnation method.
[0009] The technical solution adopted in the present invention is as follows:
[0010] A method for preparing a supported noble metal catalyst, wherein the active component noble metal in the catalyst coexists in the form of single atoms and nanoclusters, and the single atom / nanocluster ratio is controllable, comprising the following steps:
[0011] 1) dissolving a noble metal M precursor in deionized water, adding an organic complexing agent, and stirring to carry out a complex reaction to obtain a noble metal M precursor complex solution;
[0012] 2) adding a carrier to the solution in step 1), stirring thoroughly to load the complex onto the carrier, filtering, drying, and placing the resulting solid product in a Joule ultrafast heating device in a H2 atmosphere for rapid thermal shock to produce a single-atom catalyst;
[0013] 3) loading the noble metal M nanocluster sol onto the single atom catalyst in step 2) by a sol impregnation method to obtain a catalyst in which single atoms and nanoclusters of the noble metal M coexist;
[0014] wherein the noble metal M is at least one of Pt, Rh, Ir, Ru, and Pd;
[0015] The molar amount of the noble metal M atoms in the catalyst accounts for 10-90% of the total amount of the noble metal M atoms and nanoclusters;
[0016] The loading amount of the noble metal M in the catalyst is 0.1-1%.
[0017] Furthermore, the organic complexing agent in step 1) is at least one of ethylenediamine, sodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate, triethylamine, monoethanolamine, diethylenetriamine, and tetraethylenepentamine, and the molar amount of the organic complexing agent is (5 to 20) × 10 of the molar amount of the noble metal M precursor. 3 times; step 1) stirring the complex reaction temperature is room temperature, the reaction time is 1 to 5h.
[0018] Furthermore, the carrier in step 2) is CeO2, TiO2 or MnO2, FeO x At least one of metal oxides and carbon carriers such as activated carbon and carbon nanotubes, preferably CeO2 or TiO2, and the stirring time in step 2) is 2 to 10 hours.
[0019] Furthermore, the rapid thermal shock in step 2) is achieved by Joule ultrafast heating, where the temperature is rapidly raised to a heat treatment temperature of 500-800° C. within 500 milliseconds, the heat treatment time is 10-600 seconds, and then the temperature is naturally lowered to room temperature.
[0020] Furthermore, the heat treatment temperature is 550-650° C., and the heat treatment time is 20-60 seconds.
[0021] Furthermore, the specific steps of step 3) are: diluting the nanocluster sol of the precious metal M with ethylene glycol, and adding the resulting solution dropwise to the single-atom catalyst while stirring evenly; then immersing at room temperature for 10 to 20 hours, and then drying the sample in a vacuum oven, and drying under vacuum to evaporate the solvent, thereby obtaining a catalyst in which single atoms and nanoclusters of the precious metal M coexist.
[0022] Furthermore, the molar amount of the noble metal M atoms in the catalyst accounts for 10 to 50% of the total amount of the noble metal M atoms and nanoclusters, preferably 10 to 30%.
[0023] Furthermore, the loading amount of the noble metal M in the catalyst is 0.1 to 0.5%.
[0024] The present invention also discloses the use of the supported noble metal catalyst with controllable single atom / nano cluster ratio in catalyzing CO oxidation reaction.
[0025] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0026] 1) The present invention uses a coordination complex coupled thermal shock method and sol-gel impregnation method to load single atoms and nanoclusters onto a support, respectively, successfully preparing a catalyst in which single atoms and nanoclusters coexist. This preparation method eliminates the need for secondary heat treatment, which helps maintain the stability of the single-atom and nanocluster structures in the catalyst. Furthermore, the preparation method is easy to control, has mild preparation conditions, has a strong support universality, requires low synthesis equipment, and reduces preparation costs. The catalyst exhibits excellent activity in the CO oxidation reaction.
[0027] 2) The catalyst prepared by the coordination complex coupled thermal shock method-sol impregnation method adopted in the present invention realizes noble metal reduction during the preparation process without the need for other reduction steps, ensuring that the ratio of single atoms and nanoclusters in the catalyst is controllable and the structure is stable.
[0028] 3) The catalyst preparation process is simple, requiring only a single heat treatment step. This ensures the controlled synthesis of single atoms and nanoclusters in the catalyst, with the nanoclusters uniformly distributed in size between 1 and 2 nm. In the CO oxidation reaction, a 4:1 ratio of single atoms to nanoclusters exhibits the highest oxidation performance. This method allows for precise control of the single-atom to nanocluster ratio based on the specific reaction, resulting in the preparation of a highly active catalyst.
[0029] 4) The catalyst of the present invention can achieve complete CO conversion at lower temperatures, which not only reduces energy consumption and improves catalytic reaction safety, but also helps avoid carbon deposition on the catalyst at high temperatures or oxidation and deactivation of platinum species, greatly extending the service life of the catalyst.
