Abstract

Abstract: A series of supported NiB nanocatalysts by an impregnation-reduction method were prepared and evaluated in the hydrogenation of cinnamic acid, and the effect of different supports(γ-Al₂O₃, SiO₂, TiO₂)on the catalytic activity and stability was investigated. It is found that the support γ-Al₂O₃ showed a better dispersion effect on nickel active species, and the NiB/γ-Al₂O₃ catalyst had a less loss of active species after several runs. The catalytic activity of NiB/γ-Al₂O₃ catalyst in the hydrogenation of cinnamic acid showed the best stability. Notably, the NiB/γ-Al₂O₃ catalyst was gradually abnormally increased after three runs, and the conversion of cinnamic acid was enhanced to 75.0% after three times, the selectivity of hydrogenation product was kept in 100%. It may be due to that active species NiB in channels of support are constantly exposed during the reaction process, and the support can effectively hinder the loss- DOI:10.3969/j.issn.1000-1565.2018.06.008载体对纳米NiB催化肉桂酸加氢催化活性与稳定性的影响韩雪^1,2,冯文慧²,聂世琳²,兰兴旺²(1.河北省地质实验测试中心,河北保定 071051;2.河北大学化学与环境科学学院,河北保定 071002)摘要:采用浸渍-还原法制备负载型纳米NiB催化剂,以肉桂酸加氢反应为模型,考察载体(γ-Al₂O₃、SiO₂、TiO₂)对催化剂的催化活性和稳定性的影响.发现载体γ-Al₂O₃具有较好的分散镍活性组分的作用,在多次循环使用后催化剂活性组分流失较少.负载型NiB/γ-Al₂O₃催化剂在肉桂酸加氢反应中表现出较好的稳定性,此外,催化剂套用次数越多其活性反而越高,连续反应3次后肉桂酸的转化率可达75.0%,其加氢产物的选择性仍然保持在100%.通过系列表征,发现其最主要的原因可归为随着反应的不断进行载体孔道中的活性组分纳米NiB逐步暴露所致,更重要的是载体γ-Al₂O₃能够有效抑制活性组分的流失和团聚.关键词:γ-Al₂O₃;纳米NiB催化剂;稳定性;肉桂酸;加氢中图分类号:O643 文献标志码:A 文章编号:1000-1565(2018)06-0603-07Influence of supports on the catalytic activity and stability of NiB nanocatalyst in the hydrogenation of cinnamic acidHAN Xue^1,2, FENG Wenhui², NIE Shilin², LAN Xingwang²(1.
