Influence of V/P Ratio on the Catalytic Performance of VPO/SiO2 Catalysts for Ammoxidation of Chloro-Substituted Toluenes
2019
A series of vanadium phosphate oxide (VPO) catalysts supported on silica (VPO/SiO2) with various mole ratios of V/P (nV:nP=1:0.8-1:3) were prepared through impregnation method. The catalytic activity was evaluated by ammoxidation reactions of several kinds of chloro-substituted toluenes (CT) in a fixed-bed reactor. The catalyst presented the best performance when nV:nP is 1:1.6. The prepared catalysts were characterized by N2 adsorption, hydrogen temperature programmed reduction (TPR) and ammonia temperature programmed desorption (TPD) and etc. The results reveal that P can decrease the bonding energy of V=O and increase the mobility of lattice oxygen which was beneficial for the improvement of the catalysts, while too much P can greatly decrease the average oxidation number of V which leads to deactivation of the catalysts. The surface acidity of the VPO/SiO2 catalysts is affected by nV:nP and the catalyst had the highest surface acidity when nV:nP is 1:1.6. The selectivity of catalysts is proportional to the surface acidity when nV:nP is lower than 1:3.0.
