Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to catalyst particles, in particular to porous walnut-shaped catalyst particles. Background Art

[0002] Catalytic reactions are core processes in the chemical industry, and their efficiency and selectivity directly determine product quality and production economics. The morphology and structure of catalytic materials play a crucial role in catalytic reactions, directly influencing the catalyst's activity, stability, and reaction pathway. In alkylation reactions, the morphology and structure of catalytic materials have a particularly significant impact on reaction performance.

[0003] The morphology and structure of catalytic materials, including their size, shape, exposed crystal faces, and hierarchical structure, have a profound impact on catalytic performance. The morphology and structure of catalytic materials also affect the adsorption and diffusion behavior of reactants on the catalyst surface. For example, catalysts with a porous structure can provide more adsorption sites, which is conducive to the enrichment and conversion of reactant molecules. At the same time, a reasonable pore structure can optimize the diffusion path of reactant molecules, reduce mass transfer resistance, and improve reaction efficiency. Catalytic materials with a porous structure have a larger specific surface area and provide more active sites, thereby increasing the contact opportunities between the catalyst and the reactants and facilitating the reaction. In alkylation reactions, porous catalysts can more effectively adsorb and enrich ethylene molecules, promote their contact and reaction with aniline or o-toluidine, and thus increase the yield of alkylation products.

[0004] Therefore, by designing appropriate catalytic material morphology and structure, it is possible to control the reaction pathway and optimize product selectivity. By adjusting the catalyst preparation process and conditions, and controlling parameters such as the pore size, pore distribution, and specific surface area of the porous structure, new ideas and methods are provided for the development of catalytic reaction technology.
