摘要
A series of SAPO-34 molecular sieves with different SiO_(2)/Al_(2)O_(3)ratios have been synthesized for the methanol-to-olefin(MTO)reaction.Their physico-chemical properties are characterized by various techniques such as X-ray diffraction(XRD),scanning electron microscopy(SEM),energy dispersive spectroscopy(EDS),Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FT-IR)and N2 adsorption-desorption.The results are compared with those of the commercial HZSM-5,which show that the crystallinity and particle diameter of SAPO-34 as well as HZSM-5 increase with SiO_(2)/Al_(2)O_(3)ratio.The variation of BET surface area of SAPO-34 is different from that of HZSM-5 and the sample with SiO_(2)/Al_(2)O_(3)ratio of 0.4 exhibits the highest BET surface area.FT-IR spectra indicate that HZSM-5 has both Brǿnsted and Lewis acid sites and Brǿnsted acid sites are stronger,whereas SAPO-34 samples are dominated only by Lewis acid sites.When the SiO_(2)/Al_(2)O_(3)ratio increases,propylene and butylenes become the predominant product of the MTO reaction over HZSM-5.In contrast,the main products of this reaction catalyzed by SAPO-34 are ethylene and propylene.According to the product distribution,the reaction mechanism over HZSM-5 catalysts is proposed.
