Description

Carbon-coated transition metal nanocomposite containing alkali metal, and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of carbon-coated metal composite materials, in particular to a carbon-coated transition metal nanocomposite containing alkali metal, and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
It has been found that nanocarbon catalysts, such as carbon fibers, nanodiamonds, carbon nanotubes, and (oxidized) graphene, are catalytically active for a series of reactions, such as catalytic direct dehydrogenation, oxidative dehydrogenation, halogenation, hydroxylation, alkylation of hydrocarbons, and liquid-phase oxidation and condensation reactions of aldehydes and ketones. The active sites of the nanocarbon catalyst are mainly structural defects and heteroatom functional groups of the carbon material, so in order to improve the catalytic activity of the nanocarbon catalyst, the number of the structural defects and the number of the heteroatom functional groups need to be increased, but the stability of the material is reduced.
Transition metal nano materials are widely concerned due to excellent optical, electrical, magnetic and catalytic properties, but because of high activity of transition metal nano particles, the transition metal nano particles are easy to agglomerate or be oxidized and even spontaneously combust in the air, and the properties and the application of the materials are greatly influenced. Transition metal nanomaterials have high catalytic activity but poor stability, while nanocarbon materials have good chemical stability but need further improvement in catalytic activity, and if the two are combined in a proper manner, a new synergistic effect may be generated, so that they exhibit new unique properties.
At present, relevant documents for coating transition metals by carbon materials are reported, but various problems still exist in the prior materials in practical application, such as harsh manufacturing conditions, complex process, low coating rate, and not tight coating, the prior materials need to be treated by nitric acid when oxygen-containing groups are introduced, the carbon coating layer is easy to damage, adverse effects are caused to metal cores, and the like, and the prior materials cannot be suitable for industrial production and application. For example, a method of pyrolyzing a metal-organic framework compound (MOF) as a precursor, which requires a crystalline solid Material (MOF) having a periodic structure to be prepared in a solvent at high temperature and high pressure, generally has strict conditions for preparing MOFs, requires expensive ligands, and is difficult to mass-produce; in addition, the composite material prepared by the method has an imprecise coating of the metal particles. Also, for example, CN 105032424a is a catalyst for selective hydrogenation of aromatic nitro compounds, the method for coating metal particles in this document is pechini method (sol-gel method), which also requires preparation of solid coordination polymers in solvents, similar to MOF method, and the method also produces composite materials with tight coating of metal particles.
The mesoporous material generally has a large specific surface area and a relatively regular pore channel structure, so that the mesoporous material can play a better role in separation, adsorption and catalytic reaction of macromolecules and can be a microreactor for limited-domain catalysis. Due to the characteristics of high hydrothermal stability, strong hydrophobicity, organophilic property and the like, the mesoporous carbon material has unique advantages in reactions such as hydrogenation, oxidation, decomposition and the like. If the mesoporous structure can be manufactured in the carbon-coated transition metal material, the mass transfer efficiency can be obviously improved, and the service performance can be improved. At present, the preparation methods of mesoporous carbon materials mainly comprise a catalytic activation method, an organogel carbonization method and a template method, but the preparation processes of the methods are still too complex.
It is noted that the information disclosed in the foregoing background section is only for enhancement of background understanding of the invention and therefore it may contain information that does not constitute prior art that is already known to a person of ordinary skill in the art.
