Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of catalysis technology, and in particular to a preparation process for palladium chloride dihydrate. Background Technology

[0002] Palladium chloride, a key palladium compound, has a wide range of applications across multiple fields. In catalysis, it can directly serve as a catalyst for the oxidation of ethylene to acetaldehyde, and also as a precursor for cross-coupling catalysts such as Suzuki and Heck. In sensing and detection, it is an important raw material for gas-sensitive elements and a commonly used analytical reagent. In materials processing, it can be used to formulate coatings for non-conductive materials and is a commonly used raw material for palladium plating. In polymer synthesis, it can participate in the synthesis of metal polymers. Therefore, palladium chloride plays an important role in many fields.

[0003] There are two main conventional methods for preparing palladium chloride. The first is the direct gas-solid phase synthesis method, which involves the direct reaction of palladium powder with chlorine at 500°C to produce palladium dichloride. Although this method can produce a product without nitrate residue, it has significant drawbacks: the direct yield of the target product is low, unreacted palladium powder is easily mixed into the product, and the resulting palladium chloride is insoluble in water. Furthermore, the raw material chlorine has strong oxidizing and highly toxic properties, requiring stringent production equipment and making it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale production. Therefore, it is rarely used in actual production. The second method is the aqua regia dissolution method, which uses pure palladium as a raw material. Through steps such as dissolution in aqua regia, denitration, and concentration, palladium chloride is finally obtained by evaporation at a temperature not lower than 100°C. This method is simple and suitable for large-scale production; however, a small amount of nitrate ions remain in the product. It is worth noting that palladium chloride prepared by both conventional methods is insoluble in water, and there are currently few reports on the preparation process of water-soluble palladium chloride. Since palladium dichloride is mostly used in aqueous solution form in subsequent applications, this significantly limits the application of palladium chloride prepared by conventional methods. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide a preparation process for palladium chloride dihydrate with high direct yield, simple operation process, no need for complex equipment and special conditions, and easy to realize large-scale industrial production; the produced product is free of nitrate impurities and has good water solubility, which can meet the needs of multiple scenarios.
