Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind ofly make the Preparation of catalysts method of carrier, relate in particular to a kind of from making preparing carriers from synthesis gas (H by the silica gel of the less ordinary granular silica gel preparation in sol method production and aperture with macro porous silica gel
2And CO) synthetic C
2The method of oxygenatedchemicals rhodium base catalyst.
Background technology
From synthesis gas (H
2/ CO) synthetic c_2-oxygen compound is to be subjected to the research topic paid attention to widely in recent years.It is found that silica gel is the good carrier of synthetic c_2-oxygen compound rhodium base catalyst, uses widely under study for action.These granular silica gel adopt sol method production usually.The BET average pore size of the silica gel of being produced by these methods is generally between 20~100 , and specific area is between 350~900 meters squared per gram.In order to study of the influence of silica gel pore structure to catalyst performance, seek the silica gel of how better structural behaviour, particularly the bigger silica gel easily in aperture is originated, the inventor of present patent application once found a kind of making usually to prepare the method for macro porous silica gel by the reaming of sol method production silica gel, and had applied for Chinese invention patent (application number: 02127599.8).
Summary of the invention
The object of the present invention is to provide and a kind ofly make the Preparation of catalysts method of carrier, make its reaming prepare larger aperture silica gel as the better synthetic c_2-oxygen compound catalyst of preparing carriers performance with macro porous silica gel.
The less silica gel in aperture that the technical solution used in the present invention is to use the solution-treated of organic solvents such as the aqueous solution of alkaline matter or methyl alcohol to be produced by sol method usually makes its reaming.By the particle silica gel that this method makes, its BET average pore size is that 100~300 , specific area are 150~350m
2/ g, pore volume are 0.9~1.1ml/g.Can control the structural property of parameter adjustment silica gel by kind, concentration, treatment temperature and the time etc. that change alkaline matter, to obtain the silica gel of overall target excellences such as its granularity, aperture, specific area and pore volume, thereby can be used in activity and the selectivity of improving synthetic c_2-oxygen compound rhodium base catalyst, or need the catalyst carrier of larger aperture silica gel as other.
1, the raw material silica gel particle of the present invention particle silica gel that can be various particle size range, can be by sol method preparation well known in the art, also can be purchased, for example, the silica gel of the various particle size range of 1~8mm that Haiyang Chemical Plant, Qingdao and Erdos, Huhehaote, Inner Mongol silica gel factory produce.Can select the particle size range of raw material silica gel according to the average grain diameter of needed final macroporous particle silica gel.The particle diameter of the common silica gel particle that the present invention adopts can be 0.1~8mm.
2, the example of alkaline solution of the present invention includes but not limited to the hydroxide of alkali metal and ammonium, as lithium hydroxide, NaOH, potassium hydroxide and ammonium hydroxide etc.; Alkali-metal carbonate, bicarbonate, formates and acetate are as the solution of lithium carbonate, sodium carbonate, potash etc.The used liquid medium of alkaline substance solution is water preferably, but also be not limited to water.The addition of solution is minimum will flood all silica gel, can be more than 2~10 times of silica gel volume, preferably 2~5 times.
The molar percent of solution neutral and alkali material and silicon is 1~30%, and more suitably molar percent is 2~15%.The pH value of alkaline solution can be 8~14.
3, according to the present invention, the heat treatment temperature of silica gel in alkaline solution is 50~200 ℃, preferred 80~130 ℃.Concrete heat treatment temperature depends on the alkaline solution that adopted and required silica gel product.The time of in alkaline solution silica gel being heat-treated has no particular limits, and its length is relevant with the concentration of used heat treatment temperature and alkaline substance solution.When heat treatment temperature and/or alkaline substance solution concentration were low, the time of processing needed suitably to prolong, otherwise when heat treatment temperature and/or alkaline substance solution concentration were high, the processing time can suitably shorten.Heat treated temperature and alkaline substance solution concentration are high more and the processing time is long more, and the aperture of the silica gel that obtains is big more, specific area is more little.Heat treatment time among the present invention is preferably 1 hour~and 5 days.How long concrete employing can be determined according to the alkaline solution that is adopted, heat treatment temperature and required silica gel product.
According to the present invention, handle with alkaline solution in the implementation process of silica gel particle, in order to make the macro porous silica gel that obtains more even, can adopt mechanical agitation or air-flow to stir.
4, then carry out post-processing step through the heat treated silica gel of alkaline solution.Any post-processing approach that is suitable for producing catalyst carrier may be used to the present invention.According to a preferred embodiment, the solution in the mixture that aqueous slkali heat treatment can be obtained is removed, with media such as silica gel water washings, then under proper temperature dry or double roasting to produce the bigger particle silica gel in aperture that is fit to do catalyst carrier.
5, with rhodium salt with as the silica-gel carrier of the solution impregnation method for preparing of other slaine of auxiliary agent, then drying or double roasting etc. usually the step of preparation catalyst make the rhodium base catalyst of synthetic c_2-oxygen compound.Said rhodium salt can be the salt of solubilities such as rhodium chloride, rhodium nitrate, and said auxiliary agent can be the soluble-salt of transition metal (as Ir, Ru, Co, Fe, Mn, Ti, Zr, V), rare earth metal (as Ce, Sm, La), alkali metal (as Li, Na), alkaline-earth metal (as Mg, Ba).Said dipping method can be used co-impregnation, also can use the method for step impregnation; Baking temperature can be room temperature~150 ℃, and the time can be 1 hour~and 20 days; Sintering temperature can be 150~500 ℃, and the time can be 1~50 hour.
