[0003] In the prior art, ordinary alumina and other carriers with disordered pore structures are usually used in the preparation process of combustion aids, which causes active metal particles to easily agglomerate under high temperature conditions, reducing the number of active sites and having a low thermal conductivity, which will aggravate the sintering of metal particles and the collapse of the carrier structure. However, the service life of the combustion aid in application is difficult to meet the requirements.

[0004] Based on this, the present invention provides a method for preparing a nano palladium or platinum carbon monoxide combustion promoter. Summary of the invention

[0030] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0031] 1. In this preparation method, a composite carrier of mesoporous alumina and graphene is used. Among them, the three-dimensional interconnected pores of mesoporous alumina provide a high specific surface area and abundant active sites, while the sheet interpenetrating structure of graphene forms a conductive network, promoting electron transfer and heat dispersion. This composite carrier effectively inhibits the migration and aggregation of metal particles through physical confinement effects and chemical synergistic effects, while enhancing the anti-wear performance of the carrier. In addition, the high thermal conductivity of graphene can quickly conduct out the reaction heat, avoiding catalyst deactivation caused by local overheating, thus significantly extending the service life of the combustion promoter, reducing the usage of precious metals, and reducing the environmental burden.

[0032] 2. In this preparation method, a microwave-assisted calcination process is adopted. Utilizing the high dielectric loss characteristics of graphene, a dynamic temperature gradient is formed inside the carrier. This gradient heating enables atomic-level diffusion between the active metal and the carrier, forming a stable interfacial bonding, while inhibiting the sintering and agglomeration of metal particles. In addition, the local plasma effect generated in the microwave field can induce the rearrangement of carbon atoms at the edges of graphene, forming an ultrathin carbon coating layer on the surface of metal particles. This carbon layer further stabilizes the nanostructure through chemical anchoring, enabling the combustion promoter to maintain its structural integrity even in a high-temperature environment.

[0033] 3. In this preparation method, a compound system of polyethylene glycol and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide is adopted. Through the synergistic effect of non-ionic and cationic surfactants, a bilayer coating structure is formed on the surface of nanoparticles. This structure can effectively reduce the surface energy of the particles, inhibit the agglomeration driven by van der Waals forces, and enable the active metal to be uniformly loaded on the surface of the carrier in a nanoscale monodispersed state. At the same time, the hydrophilic groups of the composite surfactant form hydrogen bonds with the hydroxyl groups of the carrier, enhancing the interfacial binding force between the particles and the carrier, thereby significantly increasing the exposure amount and utilization rate of catalytic active sites.

[0110] Comparative Example 1. The difference between this comparative example and Examples 1-3 is that: in the process of preparing the nano-palladium or platinum carbon monoxide combustion promoter in this comparative example, only a single surfactant, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, is used as the surfactant, and polyethylene glycol-4000 is not introduced.

[0111] Comparative Example 2.

[0112] Comparative Example 3. The difference between this comparative example and Examples 1-3 is that: in the process of preparing the nano-palladium or platinum carbon monoxide combustion promoter in this comparative example, an ordinary alumina carrier is used to replace the special carrier.

[0113] Testing methods and testing items:

[0114] Dispersibility of nanoparticles: Evaluating the particle size distribution uniformity and agglomeration degree according to the GB / T 29022-2012 standard in combination with lens electron microscopy analysis;

[0115] High-temperature anti-sintering performance: Constant temperature for 10 hours in an air atmosphere at 700 °C, analyze the change in grain size by XRD, and compare the change rate before and after aging;

[0116] Wear resistance: Use a fluidized bed wear tester, set the gas velocity at 3 m / s, use quartz sand as the wear medium, and continue for 24 h, record the wear amount.

[0117] Perform performance tests on the nano-palladium or platinum carbon monoxide combustion promoters prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-3, and record the test data in the following table:

[0118]

[0119] By comparing the data in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Example 1 in the table, it can be seen that compared with the nano-palladium or platinum carbon monoxide combustion promoters prepared in Examples 1-3, the traditional combustion promoter has a single action mechanism due to a single surfactant and cannot effectively regulate the nucleation kinetics of nanoparticles. However, when using a compound system of polyethylene glycol-4000 and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, the long-chain ether bond of polyethylene glycol-4000 combines with the hydrophobic tail of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide through hydrophobic interaction to form a double-layer micelle structure. Polyethylene glycol-4000 provides steric hindrance to inhibit particle collision, and the cation of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide weakens the van der Waals force through electrostatic repulsion. The two work together to reduce the surface energy of the particles. At the same time, the dynamic light scattering results show that the PDI of Example is 0.11, indicating that the particles are evenly dispersed, while the PDI of Comparative Example 1 reaches 0.39, indicating that a single cetyltrimethylammonium bromide causes an electrostatic shielding effect due to charge overload, and the particles aggregate disorderly, verifying the inhibitory effect of the composite surfactant on Ostwald ripening. This shows that the design of the composite surfactant can significantly increase the density of active sites and lay a foundation for high catalytic activity;

[0120] From the above analysis, it can be concluded that the traditional single surfactant has a weak adsorption ability on the surface of nanoparticles, which easily leads to particle aggregation and reduces the active sites. The present invention uses a compound system of polyethylene glycol and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide. Through the synergistic effect of non-ionic and cationic surfactants, a bilayer coating structure is formed on the surface of the nanoparticles. This structure can effectively reduce the surface energy of the particles, inhibit the aggregation driven by the van der Waals force, and enable the active metal to be evenly loaded on the surface of the carrier in a nano-scale monodispersed state. At the same time, the hydrophilic groups of the composite surfactant form hydrogen bonds with the hydroxyl groups of the carrier, enhancing the interfacial binding force between the particles and the carrier, thereby significantly increasing the exposure amount and utilization rate of catalytic active sites;

[0121] It can be seen from the data comparison between Examples 1-3 and Comparative Example 2 in the table that compared with the nano-palladium or platinum carbon monoxide combustion promoters prepared by the preparation method of Comparative Example 2 and those prepared in Examples 1-3, traditional calcination relies on heat conduction heating, and the poor temperature uniformity leads to a decrease in the surface migration energy barrier of the particles. In contrast, microwave gradient calcination utilizes the dielectric difference between mesoporous alumina and graphene to form a dynamic temperature gradient inside the carrier. This gradient drives the nano-particles to migrate directionally into the mesopores, and the pore confinement effect inhibits grain boundary diffusion. After high-temperature aging, the particle size growth in Examples 1-3 is ≤8.5%, while that in Comparative Example 2 is >26.0%. This shows that microwave calcination realizes the embedded fixation of particles through a non-equilibrium thermodynamic process, effectively delaying high-temperature sintering.

[0122] From the above analysis, it can be concluded that traditional muffle furnace calcination relies on heat conduction, which easily leads to local overheating and abnormal grain growth. The present invention adopts a microwave-assisted calcination process. Utilizing the high dielectric loss property of graphene, a dynamic temperature gradient is formed inside the carrier. This gradient heating enables atomic-level diffusion between the active metal and the carrier, forming a stable interfacial bonding. At the same time, it inhibits the sintering and agglomeration of metal particles. In addition, the local plasma effect generated in the microwave field can induce the rearrangement of carbon atoms at the edges of graphene, forming an ultrathin carbon coating layer on the surface of the metal particles. This carbon layer further stabilizes the nanostructure through chemical anchoring, enabling the combustion promoter to maintain its structural integrity even in a high-temperature environment.

[0123] It can be seen from the data comparison between Examples 1-3 and Comparative Example 3 in the table that compared with the nano-palladium or platinum carbon monoxide combustion promoters prepared by the preparation method of Comparative Example 3 and those prepared in Examples 1-3, due to the disordered pore size distribution and high closed pore rate of the ordinary alumina carrier, the diffusion path of the reactants is tortuous. In contrast, the mesoporous alumina-graphene composite carrier constructs a hierarchical mass transfer network through the three-dimensional interconnected pores and the interpenetration of graphene sheets. At the same time, the introduction of graphene enhances the mechanical strength of the carrier and significantly reduces the attrition index. This shows that the special carrier can significantly improve the service life of the combustion promoter.

[0124] From the above analysis, it can be concluded that the pore structure of the ordinary alumina carrier is disordered and its specific surface area is relatively low, which limits the catalytic efficiency. The present invention adopts a composite carrier of mesoporous alumina and graphene. The three-dimensional interconnected pores of mesoporous alumina provide a high specific surface area and abundant active sites, while the sheet interpenetration structure of graphene forms a conductive network, promoting electron transfer and heat dispersion. This composite carrier effectively inhibits the migration and agglomeration of metal particles through physical confinement effects and chemical synergistic effects, while enhancing the anti-wear performance of the carrier. In addition, the high thermal conductivity of graphene can quickly conduct out the reaction heat, avoiding catalyst deactivation caused by local overheating, thereby significantly extending the service life of the combustion promoter, reducing the consumption of precious metals, and reducing the environmental load.
