The invention belongs to the technical field of
new materials, and particularly relates to preparation and
doping modification of
rare earth oxide loaded
transition metal nanoparticles for low-pressure
ammonia synthesis. The supported synthetic
ammonia catalyst provided by the invention comprises a
cerium dioxide carrier (CeO2) with characteristic morphology and rich
oxygen vacancies, a
lanthanum-doped and modified
cerium dioxide carrier (La-CeO2), and a
metal nano-material which is supported on a
rare earth metal oxide carrier and is generated through high-temperature
gas phase reduction, the preparation method comprises the following steps: dissolving
rare earth metal nitrate and an organic ligand in N-
N dimethylformamide, then adding an initiator and a stabilizer, putting an obtained
mixed solution into a hydrothermal kettle, and carrying out
solvothermal reaction at high temperature; the preparation method comprises the following steps: centrifuging, washing,
drying and calcining a
metal organic framework precursor obtained by
solvothermal reaction to prepare a rare earth metal
oxide carrier, and loading
transition metal chloride on the rare earth metal oxide carrier by taking
acetone as a
solvent through a rotary
evaporation method; and performing high-
temperature treatment in a
reducing atmosphere to obtain the
transition metal nanoparticle loaded rare earth metal oxide
ammonia synthesis catalyst. The supported ammonia synthesis catalyst has very strong
nitrogen activation capability and very high low-pressure ammonia synthesis performance.
