  • the solution is heated at a temperature in the range of 40 –200 °C. If the reaction temperature is lower than 40 °C, the rate of polymerization is two slow and it is difficult to reduce the metal ions to form metal nanoclusters. If the reaction temperature is above 200 °C, the support is formed too fast and the metal ions are reduced too fast. Consequently, the supported catalyst with an uneven distribution of the particle sizes of the metal nanocluster seeds is formed. Therefore, the reaction temperature of the solution is preferably controlled in the range of 60 –150 °C.

Description

Method for preparing catalyst support loaded with a first metal and a second metal Technical Field
The present invention relates to a method for preparing highly dispersed ultrafine bimetallic shaped catalyst support by solid state seeded-growth strategy using metallic nanoclusters loaded on the solid support as the first metal, i.e. crystal seeds, which guide in situ the growth of the second metal element to obtain the supported bimetallic catalyst.
Background Art
Bimetallic catalysts are an important class of heterogeneous catalysts and are widely used in chemical industry such as dehydrogenation reforming, selective hydrogenation, acetoxylation etc. In recent years, the application of bimetallic catalysts in the field of biomass conversion and electrocatalysis has been further developed. Compared to monometallic catalysts, bimetallic catalysts often exhibit better performance and stability thanks to their unique geometry, electronic structure, and synergetic effect between the two metal elements.
However, the synthesis of bimetallic catalysts of uniform ultrafine sizes supported on inert non-reductive supports (such as carbon materials or silicon materials) has been challenging in the field of catalyst syntheses. The traditional methods for preparing bimetallic catalysts are mainly impregnation method and sol-immobilization method. The former preparation method is simple and convenient; however, the particle size is not uniform and the particle dispersion is bad. The latter method can provide small-sized catalyst having uniform particle size, however, it is not easy to remove the protective agents on the metal surface and the interaction between the metal and the support is weak, which make the metal fall off the support easily. The above drawbacks influence the activity and stability of the catalysts considerably.
In catalytic reactions, the powder catalysts are often required to be processed by extra  shaping procedures, such as for example by extrusion molding etc., to endow the catalyst with the required strength. However, such shaping processes inevitably involve binders, resulting in a decrease in the catalyst activity.
Thus, the synthesis of the traditional bimetallic catalyst preparation and the post-shaping techniques thereof are still problematic in industrial application, which makes it appealing to search for a new type of bimetallic catalyst, the synthesis and the post-shaping of which overcomes the drawbacks in the prior art and thus suitable for industrial applications.
Brief Description of the Invention
To overcome the above-mentioned problems of oversizing of the catalyst particles, the metal particles falling easily off the catalyst support, and the drastic decreasing of the catalytic activity as a result of the post-shaping procedure for the traditional bimetallic catalysts, the inventors provide a highly dispersed ultrafine bimetallic shaped catalyst and the preparation thereof by a method of solid state seeded-growth strategy. Said method mainly comprises two procedures: i.e. directly loading metallic nanoclusters seeds on the solid support and uniformly introducing the second metal.
It is to note that in the context of the present invention, the metal particles, metal clusters may be used interchangeable and both refer to the metal nanoparticles and metal clusters loaded on the inventive catalyst support.

For the inventive method, at first an aromatic compound having at least one N-containing group, a surfactant, an aldehyde compound and a first metal salt are mixed to provide an aqueous solution. In said solution the polymer support is prepared by means of hydrothermal process, on which the nanoparticles of the first metal are deposited in situ; uniformly introducing the second metal, wherein during the reduction process, the  ultrafine nanoparticles of the first metal function as seeds directing the growth of the second metal on the catalyst support by means of Solid State Seeded-Growth Strategy to synthesize the uniform bimetallic catalyst.
Herein, the aromatic compound having at least one N-containing group may be one selected from 2-aminophenol, 3-aminophenol, 4-aminophenol, 3-amino-1, 2-benzendiol, 4-aminocatechol, 2-amino-1, 3-benzenediol, 4-amino-1, 3-benzenediol, 5-amino-1, 3-benzenediol, 2-amino-1, 4-benzenediol, 2, 3-diaminophenol, 3, 4-diaminophenol, 2, 4-diamino-phenol, 3, 5-diaminophenol, 2, 5-diaminophenol, pyrrole, aniline, diaminopyridine, dopamine or a mixture thereof. Forming ultrafine metal nanoclusters seeds uniformly on the surface of the support is a crucial issue for the implementation of the inventive method, i.e. the solid state seeded-growth strategy for preparing the supported ultrafine bimetallic nanocluster catalysts. It is the consideration of the inventors that the interaction between the aromatic compound having at least one N-containing group and the first metal is essential. Said interaction ensures the formation of the metal nanoparticle seeds on the support. Uniformly introducing the second metal onto the support is another crucial issue for implementation of the inventive method of solid state seeded growth of the supported ultrafine bimetallic catalyst. The uniformly introducing the second metal may be achieved when an abundant of amino, hydroxyl, or carboxyl functional groups etc. are available in the synthesized support. Thus, the aromatic compound having at least one N-containing group is one selected from the group consisting of 2-aminophenol, 3-aminophenol, 4-aminophenol, 3-amino-1, 2-benzendiol, 4-aminocatechol, 2-amino-1, 3-benzenediol, 4-amino-1, 3-benzenediol, 5-amino-1, 3-benzenediol, 2-amino-1, 4-benzenediol, 2, 3-diaminophenol, 3, 4-diaminophenol, 2, 4-diamino-phenol, 3, 5-diaminophenol, 2, 5-diaminophenol, pyrrole, aniline, diaminopyridine, dopamine.
The aldehyde compound can be an aliphatic aldehyde having 1 to 12 carbon atoms, such as formaldehyde, paraformaldehyde, furfural, acetaldehyde, crotonaldehyde, or an aromatic aldehyde, or a compound which can be decomposed to release formaldehyde,  such as hexamethylenetetramine or paraformaldehyde.
The surfactant is used as a pore-forming agent to form a mesoporous structure in the support and as a crosslinking agent to form a coral-like crosslinked structure. Said surfactant is one or more selected from the group consisting of Pluronic F127, P123, Tween-80, and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) , Brij-58, PEO-b-PS, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate, sodium oleate and amino acids. Preferably, the surfactant is selected from Pluronic F127, P123, Tween-80, PEO-b-PS and amino acids, more preferably is Pluronic F127 and PEO-b-PS.
The surfactant is used in an amount of 0.01 to 100 times of the weight of the aromatic compound having at least one N-containing group, preferably in an amount of 0.1 to 10 times of the weight of the aromatic compound. If the surfactant is used less than 0.1 times by weight, the support is formed without mesoporous structure; if the surfactant is used more than 100 times, the rate of polymerization and the yield will be too slow, and is economically not favored. Meanwhile, the formation of a cross-linked structure is not favored when the surfactant exceeds the above range.
The molar ratio of the aromatic compound having at least one N-containing group to the first metal is in the range of 1 : 1 to 1000 : 1. The amount of loading of the metal on the support can be adjusted by tuning the ratio of the aromatic compound having at least one N-containing group to the first metal. If the ratio is below 1 : 1, the loading of metal will be too high to control the size of the metal nanocluster seeds; on the other hand, if the molar ratio of the aromatic compound having at least one N-containing group to the first metal is more than 1000: 1, the loading rate of the metal will be too low to form applicable supported metal catalyst.
Once the solution containing the components for preparing the support and the first metal is prepared, it can be heated to form in a single step the polymer support supported metal particles, i.e. the metal nanocluster seeds. The solution is heated at a  temperature in the range of 40 –200 ℃. If the reaction temperature is lower than 40 ℃, the rate of polymerization is two slow and it is difficult to reduce the metal ions to form metal nanoclusters. If the reaction temperature is above 200 ℃, the support is formed too fast and the metal ions are reduced too fast. Consequently, the supported catalyst with an uneven distribution of the particle sizes of the metal nanocluster seeds is formed. Therefore, the reaction temperature of the solution is preferably controlled in the range of 60 –150 ℃.
The first metal ions may be selected from one of Pd, Au, Pt. Salt containing one of the above metal ions is added to the solution, which –on heating the reaction solution –forms particles of the first metal, i.e. the supported first metal nanoparticle seeds. The inventive metal nanoclusters seeds formed herein are extremely small and uniformly distributed on the support (shown in Figure 2) , which is the key to the synthesis of the inventive highly dispersed ultrafine supported bimetallic catalysts.
The metal salt containing the first metal ions may be selected from the group consisting of palladium nitrate, potassium tetrachloropalladate (II) , palladium acetylacetonate, palladium dichloride, chlopllatinic acid, platinum tetrachloride, potassium hexachloroplatinate, chloroauric acid, potassium tetrachloroaurate, preferably potassium tetrachloro palladate.
Furthermore, the present invention achieves directly loading metal nanoparticle seeds on the solid support, said metal nanocluster seeds function as anchor positions guiding the loading of the second metal to form therewith the supported bimetallic catalyst.
The polymer support loaded with metal nanocluster seeds is dispersed in water, on which the second metal is loaded, wherein the pH value is set to 2-12. Uniformly introducing the second metal is another crucial issue for the synthesis of highly dispersed ultrafine bimetallic shaped catalyst. In this concern, the functional groups on the support such as for example the nitrogen-containing functional groups act as binding  sites for the second metal salts, leading to uniform or even homogeneous dispersion of the second metal on the support. Besides the functional groups on the surface of the support, the pH value of the solution may exert an important influence. A base solution such as ammonia solution, lithium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, rubidium hydroxide, cesium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide, strontium hydroxide, barium hydroxide, and an acid such as hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, sulfuric acid, organic acid and carboxylic acid may be used to set the pH value of the solution.
The amount of substance of the second metal is added in a molar ratio of 1: 100 to 10: 1 relative to the first metal. Taking the amount of substance of the first metal as 1 equivalent, if the second metal is added in an amount below 1: 100 equivalent, the bimetallic effect is not prominent; if the second metal is added in an amount higher than 10 equivalents, it will result in formation of oversized metal particles or formation of the separate second metallic particles.
The second metal may be selected from the group consisting of Pd, Pt, Ag, Ni, Cu, Fe, Zn, Co, Ru, Rh, Ir, Os, Sb, Bi, W. Correspondingly, a salt containing one of the above metal ions may be used, such as for example palladium nitrate, potassium tetrachloropalladate, palladium acetylacetonate, palladium dichloride, chloroplatinic acid, potassium tetrachloroplatinate, chloroauric acid, potassium tetrachloroaurate, silver nitrate, nickel nitrate, copper nitrate, iron nitrate, zinc nitrate, cobalt nitrate, potassium ferricyanide, potassium hexacyanocobaltate, ruthenium trichloride, ferric chloride, zinc chloride, and the like, with the proviso that the second metal is different from the first metal.
The support of the inventive supported bimetallic catalyst has a crosslinked structure. The supported bimetallic catalyst can be shaped by a tablet press machine at a pressure in the range of 1 –100 bar. Furthermore, the mechanical strength will be increased upon maturing during hydrogenation. These reduce the possibility of reduction of the catalytic activity during the post shaping process and lower the production costs.
The reduction treatment temperature is usually set in the range of 150 ℃ –800 ℃.
The supported bimetallic catalyst can be prepared by the above-described method.
The synthesized catalysts may be characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) , scanning electron microscopy (SEM) , X-ray diffraction, and ICP.
The inventive bimetallic catalyst obtained by the above-mentioned inventive method has ultrafine metal particles size, uniform particle size distribution. The catalyst can be easily separated and regenerated, and is suitable for studying reaction mechanism. The preparation process of the catalyst is green and energy effective. It is highly recommendable in the fields of catalytic hydrogenation and oxidation.
Furthermore, the solid state seeded-growth strategy (the inventors name it SSSG) developed for the first time in the present invention can be expanded to other systems, such as silicone oxide, metal oxide supported bimetallic nano-catalyst. The technical solutions of the present invention will be described in detail in the following with respect to the specific embodiments, which serve solely the purpose of illustrating the invention and not limiting the scope of the present invention.
