摘要
A shaped binderless and two binder‐containing ZSM‐11 zeolite catalysts were prepared and characterized by powder X‐ray diffraction, N2 adsorption‐desorption, and pyridine adsorption‐infrared measurements. The binderless catalyst was synthesized using a dry‐gel conversion technique, inwhich 1,6‐hexanediamine and tetrabutylammonium bromide were used as structure‐directingagents and no other alkaline materials were added. The catalytic performance of the zeolites in the direct amination of isobutene to tert‐butylamine was evaluated in a fixed‐bed reactor. By virtue of its high crystallinity as well as its good mechanical strength, the shaped binderless ZSM‐11 catalyst showed a higher rate of formation of tert‐butylamine than did the binder‐containing catalysts.
叔丁胺是一种重要的化工原料和中间体,广泛应用于制备橡胶促进剂、医药、农药和着色剂等下游产品.异丁烯在分子筛催化剂上直接胺化生产叔丁胺是一个经济环保过程,其中ZSM-5和BEA分子筛的催化性能优于其它系列分子筛.ZSM-11与ZSM-5分子筛具有相似的孔道结构,我们以前的实验结果表明,与ZSM-5相比,ZSM-11表现出更优越的芳构化反应性能,在干气中乙烯低温芳构化方面也有明显优势.在此基础上,我们进行无粘结剂ZSM-11分子筛催化剂合成,并应用于异丁烯直接胺化生产叔丁胺反应.传统水热技术合成的分子筛通常为粉末,机械强度不能达到实际应用的要求,在工业化过程中分子筛粉末一般需要加入粘结剂成型使其具备一定的机械强度和形状,但是粘结剂会降低分子筛催化剂的活性和选择性,有可能会引发一些副反应,因此无粘结剂分子筛催化剂引起人们广泛关注.无粘结剂分子筛是指分子筛颗粒中不含惰性粘结剂或只含有少量粘结剂,主要依靠分子筛晶粒间的相互作用支撑存在,具有一定形状、尺寸和机械强度的催化材料.无粘结剂分子筛催化剂中分子筛含量较高,可利用的有效表面积较大,在离子交换及工业催化等方面具有明显优势.本文采用水热合成的ZSM-11分子筛原粉与二氧化硅机械混合(ZSM-11/SiO_2=70/30)挤条后,通过气固相合成法制备了无粘结剂ZSM-11分子筛催化剂(Cat-C).作为对比,还分别制备了ZSM-11和SiO_2机械混合(ZSM-11/SiO_2=70/30)样品HZSM-11+SiO_2及ZSM-11和氧化铝机械混合(ZSM-11/Al_2O_3=70/30)样品HZSM-11+Al_2O_3.利用X射线衍射、透射电镜、NH_3程序升温脱附和吸附吡啶红外光谱等对分子筛催化剂的物理化学性能进行了表征.同时,以这些分子筛样品为催化剂,在固定床反应装置上进行了异丁烯胺化反应评价,反应条件为270℃,5.0 MPa,氨烯比为4和异丁烯空速0.5 h^(-1).结果表明,与
