The invention provides a P and Mo modified Y type
molecular sieve catalyst and a preparation method of tert-dodecyl mercaptan. The method comprises the following steps: performing P salt preliminary modification on a Y-type
molecular sieve by adopting a water bath heating method to reduce strong acid central sites of the
molecular sieve and increase the number of B acids, and the B acid sites can effectively adsorb S elements and enhance the activity of the molecular
sieve to obtain a P-modified precursor; active
metal molybdenum is deposited on the P-modified molecular
sieve precursor through an electro-deposition method, Mo modification can perform dealumination on a molecular
sieve framework, the Si / Al ratio is increased, the
total acid density is reduced, and the
desorption capacity of a product is improved; pulse electrodeposition is combined with a complexing agent to regulate and control
nucleation and growth of
molybdenum, deposited
molybdenum salt is combined with the carrier on the surface of the molecular sieve in a high-dispersion
single crystal or small cluster form, combination of
metal and the carrier is enhanced, and the catalyst has good catalytic performance when applied to
hydrogen sulfide addition reaction. The catalyst prepared by the method provided by the invention is suitable for synthesis of tert-dodecyl mercaptan by addition of
hydrogen sulfide to
tetra-
polypropylene, and the product is high in yield and good in stability.
