Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of carbon monoxide catalytic oxidation technology, and relates to a SnO2 nanomaterial, its preparation method and application. Background Technology
[0002] With the advancement of science and technology and the continuous progress of global industrialization and modernization, environmental pollution has become a major concern. Carbon monoxide (CO), a primary gaseous pollutant produced by the incomplete combustion of carbon-containing substances, is widely present in vehicle exhaust, industrial emissions, and indoor coal combustion. Therefore, developing efficient CO removal technologies is of urgent practical significance. Among various treatment methods, catalytic oxidation technology is considered the most promising solution due to its ability to completely convert CO into non-toxic CO2 under relatively mild conditions. The core of this technology lies in the development of high-performance catalysts.
[0003] Currently, catalyst systems for CO oxidation mainly fall into two categories: noble metals and non-noble metals. Although non-noble metal catalysts based on transition metal oxides have a cost advantage, their low-temperature activity and stability often fail to meet the demanding requirements of practical applications. In contrast, supported noble metal catalysts, represented by platinum (Pt), palladium (Pd), and gold (Au), have always been the irreplaceable core technology in this field due to their superior low-temperature catalytic activity. In supported noble metal catalysts, performance largely depends on the structure and properties of the metal support surface and interface. The support is far from an inert supporting component; it provides a high specific surface area to disperse and stabilize metal nanoparticles, modulates the electronic state of the active center through unique metal-support interaction (SMSI), and even directly participates in the catalytic cycle, thus having a decisive influence on the overall performance.
[0004] Among numerous candidate support materials, tin dioxide (SnO2), as an n-type semiconductor metal oxide, exhibits unique potential. Its tunable acid-base and redox properties, along with its ability to form strong interactions with noble metals (such as Pd), are considered to effectively optimize the adsorption-desorption behavior of reactants and intermediates, weaken the CO poisoning effect, and thus enhance oxidation reaction kinetics. However, SnO2 materials prepared by traditional synthesis methods (such as co-precipitation and conventional sol-gel methods) generally suffer from inherent defects such as poor controllability of product morphology and size, and poor crystallinity. These structural limitations severely restrict the effective dispersion of noble metals and limit the full realization of the metal-support synergistic effect, resulting in catalyst performance that fails to meet theoretical expectations, with significant room for improvement in its low-temperature activity and long-term stability.
[0005] Therefore, developing a novel preparation method that can precisely control the microstructure (such as morphology, grain size, crystal faces and defects) of SnO2 supports is key to unlocking their superior catalytic support potential. Summary of the Invention
[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the present invention aims to provide a SnO2 nanomaterial, its preparation method, and its applications. This invention prepares SnO2 nanomaterials via hydrothermal synthesis, and controls the morphology of SnO2 through the use of a tin source, regulators, and process control. The resulting SnO2 material exhibits a three-dimensional nanoflower-like morphology, uniform size, and high crystallinity. Furthermore, the preparation conditions are mild and the yield is high, making it suitable for large-scale production. When used as a support for CO oxidation catalysts, the metal-support interaction enhances the catalyst's catalytic performance and long-term stability.
[0007] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0008] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a method for preparing SnO2 nanomaterials, the method comprising:
[0009] The tin source is mixed sequentially with a solvent and a modifier to obtain a precursor solution. The precursor solution is then subjected to hydrothermal crystallization treatment, and the resulting solid product is subjected to a first calcination to obtain the SnO2 nanomaterial.
[0010] In this invention, calcination plays a crucial role in the morphology and structure of the material. On the one hand, calcination can remove organic matter that may remain during the hydrothermal process, improving product purity. On the other hand, calcination, under certain high-temperature treatment, can eliminate internal stress in the material and enhance crystallinity. Ultimately, calcination enhances the structural and thermal stability of the material, ensuring its stable and efficient use as a support for the synthesis of supported noble metal catalysts.
[0011] Furthermore, in this invention, the tin source must be mixed with the solvent and the regulator in sequence to first form a uniform and stable tin source solution. The hydrolysis process of tin ions is carried out when the regulator is added. If all of them are directly mixed in, it will lead to insufficient dissolution of the tin source solid, non-uniform tin source state, inconsistent degree of hydrolysis and other complex situations, resulting in disordered and inconsistent morphology of the products after the hydrothermal reaction.
[0012] The following are preferred technical solutions of the present invention, but are not intended to limit the technical solutions provided by the present invention. The technical objectives and beneficial effects of the present invention can be better achieved and realized through the following preferred technical solutions.
[0013] Preferably, the tin source comprises a soluble tin salt, wherein the soluble tin salt comprises tin tetrachloride pentahydrate.
[0014] Preferably, the solvent includes water and / or ethanol, and more preferably water and ethanol.
[0015] Preferably, when the solvent is water and ethanol, the volume ratio of water to ethanol is 1:(1~2.5), such as 1:1, 1:1.2, 1:1.5, 1:1.8, 1:2, 1:2.2 or 1:2.5, etc.
[0016] In this invention, the type of solvent affects the morphology and structure of the product, ultimately influencing the material's properties. Ethanol plays two roles: 1. Regulating the crystallization growth process: It can slow down the crystallization rate and inhibit excessively rapid crystal growth, promoting the formation of a regular and uniform morphology; 2. Controlling the morphology: It induces anisotropic growth. Therefore, the absence of ethanol or insufficient ethanol addition may lead to particle agglomeration, while excessive ethanol may significantly alter the reaction pathway and chemical environment, causing the reaction to proceed in the wrong direction and preventing the synthesis of the product. By controlling the ethanol content within the preferred range of this invention, it is more beneficial to obtain materials with uniform morphology and excellent performance.
[0017] Preferably, the regulator comprises any one or a combination of at least two of NaOH aqueous solution, KOH aqueous solution or TMAH aqueous solution, and more preferably TMAH (tetramethylammonium hydroxide) aqueous solution.
[0018] In this invention, different types of regulators produce different effects, but all can synthesize SnO2 with regular and uniform morphology. Under the same conditions, SnO2 synthesized using TMAH aqueous solution as a regulator exhibits the best CO oxidation performance when used as a support for CO oxidation catalyst.
[0019] Preferably, the concentration of the regulator is 0.5 mol / L to 3 mol / L, such as 0.5 mol / L, 1 mol / L, 1.5 mol / L, 2 mol / L, 2.5 mol / L or 3 mol / L.
[0020] Preferably, the process of mixing the tin source with the solvent and the regulator in sequence includes: mixing the tin source and the solvent to obtain a tin source solution, and then adding the regulator dropwise to the tin source solution.
[0021] Preferably, the dripping rate is 5 mL / min to 15 mL / min, for example, 5 mL / min, 7 mL / min, 10 mL / min, 13 mL / min or 15 mL / min.
[0022] In this invention, the regulator needs to be added dropwise at a constant flow rate to avoid the reaction being too rapid and to facilitate the formation of a uniform and regular morphology.
[0023] Preferably, the temperature of the hydrothermal crystallization treatment is 120℃~250℃, such as 120℃, 150℃, 170℃, 200℃, 220℃ or 250℃, and the time is 6h~48h, such as 6h, 10h, 15h, 20h, 25h, 30h, 35h, 40h or 48h.
[0024] Preferably, the product after hydrothermal crystallization is subjected to centrifugation, washing, and drying in sequence to obtain the solid product.
[0025] Preferably, the temperature of the first calcination is 500℃~1000℃, such as 500℃, 600℃, 700℃, 800℃, 900℃ or 1000℃, and the time is 2h~12h, such as 2h, 4h, 6h, 8h, 10h or 12h.
[0026] In this invention, controlling the temperature and time of the first calcination within the aforementioned preferred range is more conducive to obtaining pure and stable SnO2. If the temperature is too low, some organic pollutants or impurities cannot be effectively removed, which will affect the impregnation and loading process and thus affect the activity; while if the temperature is too high, it will destroy the regularity of the morphology.
[0027] In a second aspect, the present invention provides a SnO2 nanomaterial, which is prepared by the preparation method described in the first aspect.
[0028] Preferably, the SnO2 nanomaterial has a three-dimensional nanoflower-like morphology.
[0029] Preferably, the average size of the SnO2 nanomaterial is 200nm~500nm, such as 200nm, 250nm, 300nm, 350nm, 380nm, 400nm, 420nm, 450nm, 480nm or 500nm.
[0030] Thirdly, the present invention provides a CO oxidation catalyst, the CO oxidation catalyst comprising a support and Pd supported on the support, wherein the support is the SnO2 nanomaterial described in the second aspect.
[0031] The CO oxidation catalyst provided by this invention exhibits excellent CO catalytic oxidation activity and stability due to the synergistic effect of Pd and SnO2 supports.
[0032] Preferably, the loading amount of Pd on the carrier is 0.05wt.% to 5wt.%, for example, 0.05wt.%, 0.1wt.%, 0.5wt.%, 1wt.%, 2wt.%, 3wt.%, 4wt.% or 5wt.%.
[0033] Fourthly, the present invention provides a method for preparing the CO oxidation catalyst as described in the third aspect, the method comprising: impregnating the SnO2 nanomaterial described in the second aspect in an aqueous solution of palladium salt, and after the impregnation is completed, subjecting the impregnated product to a second calcination to obtain the CO oxidation catalyst.
[0034] Preferably, after the impregnation is completed, the product is dried to obtain the impregnated product.
[0035] Preferably, the palladium salt comprises palladium nitrate, and more preferably tetraaminopalladium nitrate.
[0036] Preferably, the second calcination temperature is 500℃~1000℃, such as 500℃, 600℃, 700℃, 800℃, 900℃ or 1000℃, and the time is 2h~12h, such as 2h, 4h, 6h, 8h, 10h or 12h.
[0037] Fifthly, the present invention also provides the application of the CO oxidation catalyst as described in the third aspect in the CO catalytic oxidation reaction.
[0038] Preferably, the atmosphere used in the application is an oxygen-rich atmosphere, wherein the volume concentration ratio of O2 to CO in the oxygen-rich atmosphere is >5.
[0039] The numerical range described in this invention includes not only the point values listed above, but also any point values within the numerical ranges not listed above. Due to space limitations and for the sake of brevity, this invention will not exhaustively list all the specific point values included in the range.
[0040] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0041] This invention, through creative improvements to the CO oxidation catalyst support itself, fundamentally stimulates the synergistic catalytic effect between the noble metal and the support, thereby enhancing catalytic activity and stability. Furthermore, the synthesis method provided by this invention is simple, convenient, and environmentally friendly, offering a highly efficient and reliable novel catalyst solution for addressing CO pollution, possessing significant industrial application value and market potential.

[0098] Performance testing
[0099] 1. Catalyst performance evaluation
[0100] 0.2 g of the catalysts prepared in Examples 1-12 and Comparative Examples 1-4 were used respectively, with a mass hourly space velocity (GHSV) of 300,000 mL / (g). h), gas composition: CO = 1000 ppm, O2 = 3.5 vol.%, N2 equilibrium; the reaction was carried out in a continuous flow micro fixed bed, and the concentration change of CO in the tail gas was determined by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The test results are shown in […]. Figure 3 , Figure 4 See Table 1.
[0101] 2. Long-term stability test of catalyst
[0102] 0.2 g of the catalysts prepared in Example 6 and Comparative Examples 1-2 were used respectively, with a mass hourly space velocity (GHSV) of 300,000 mL / (g). h), gas composition: CO = 1000 ppm, O2 = 3.5 vol.%, N2 equilibrium; a long-term test was conducted for 32 h at a constant temperature (stabilizing the reaction temperature at the point where the initial conversion rate of each catalyst is 80%) in a continuous flow micro fixed bed. The change in CO concentration in the tail gas was measured by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and the test results are shown in Table 2. The difference in Table 2 refers to the CO conversion rate measured after 32 h minus the initial CO conversion rate.
[0103] Table 1
[0104]
[0105] Table 2
[0106]
[0107] The catalyst prepared in Example 6 was subjected to SEM and XRD tests, respectively, and the results are as follows: Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the SnO2 nanomaterials prepared by the preparation method provided by the present invention have a three-dimensional nanoflower-like morphology with a size of about 450 nm and good crystallinity.
[0108] Through analysis Figure 3 The results from the examples and comparative examples in Table 1 show that the hydrothermal synthesis of SnO2 nanomaterials is significantly better than that of the precipitation method as a catalyst support for CO oxidation. Furthermore, the addition of a regulator significantly improves the structure of the SnO2 nanomaterials, enhancing their catalytic performance. In addition, the order of calcination and the addition of raw materials also affects the structure of the SnO2 nanomaterials, thus influencing the catalyst's performance. By comparing the experimental data from Examples 1-4, the effects of adding ethanol to the precursor solution and the water-to-ethanol ratio on catalytic performance were studied. It was found that the addition of ethanol improves the catalyst's performance, and the catalytic performance is optimal when the amount of ethanol added is twice that of water, i.e., W:E = 1:2 (v:v) with 1 wt.% Pd / SnO2-1.0N(W+2E).
[0109] Through analysis and comparison Figure 4 Based on the experimental data of Examples 5-9 in Table 1, the influence of the type and concentration of regulator on catalytic performance was studied. It can be concluded that when the three preferred regulators of the present invention are used and their concentrations are controlled within the preferred range provided by the present invention, the catalysts all exhibit superior performance. Moreover, when the regulator is a 1.0 mol / L TMAH solution, the catalytic performance of 1 wt.% Pd / SnO2-1.0T(W+2E) is the best.
[0110] As can be seen from the comparison of the data of Example 3 and Examples 10-12 in Table 1, using the hydrothermal temperature and time and the first calcination temperature and time within the preferred range of the present invention can yield a catalyst with excellent performance. However, when the first calcination temperature is too high, the catalyst performance will decrease.
[0111] As shown in Table 2, the SnO2 nanomaterials prepared by the method provided in this invention have a better synergistic effect with Pd when used as a CO oxidation catalyst support compared with SnO2 materials prepared without the addition of a regulator or by precipitation method. Therefore, the catalyst can exhibit better long-term stability.
