High dispersion of heteropolyacid nanoparticles on hydrothermally Cs-modified three-dimensionally ordered macroporous SiO2 with excellent selectivity in methacrolein oxidation

doi:10.1016/j.cjche.2020.07.017

Abstract

Abstract: Heteropolyacid nanoparticles (NPs) were supported on Cs-modified three-dimensionally ordered macroporous (3DOM) SiO₂ and used as the catalyst for the oxidation of methacrolein (MAL) to methacrylic acid (MAA). Hydrothermal treatment and incipient wetness impregnation were employed respectively for the Cs-modification. It was found that hydrothermal Cs-modification of 3DOM SiO₂ promoted the dispersion of the supported heteropolyacid, which showed an average particle size of 5.2 nm, much smaller than that (17.6 nm) on the Csmodified 3DOM SiO₂ prepared by incipient wetness impregnation. The effects of hydrothermal treatment on the structure and catalytic performance of the catalyst were investigated. Results showed that the ion exchange between Cs⁺ and the surface silanol groups on 3DOM SiO₂ was promoted with the increase of the hydrothermal temperature. Meanwhile, Cs-modification helped the heteropolyacid to retain intact Keggin structure, inhibiting the formation of MoO₃. Highly dispersed heteropolyacid NPs with enhanced structural stability exhibited excellent selectivity to MAA in the oxidation of MAL.
