Interlayer-expanded MWW-type zeolite catalysts with carbon filler in expanded micropores for efficient microwave heating

Masaki Okamoto, Takahiro Sakatsume, Shuntaro Tsubaki, Yuji Wada

Journal of Materials Chemistry A 10 14585 - 14593 2022

ISSN 20507488

　View Summary

Recently, microwave (MW) heating has been applied to chemical reactions instead of conventional heating because heating only catalysts by MW radiation is more energy-efficient than heating reaction systems by conventional heating. However, zeolites, which are widely used as catalysts in the chemical industry, can hardly be heated by MW radiation. Here, zeolite catalysts suitable for MW heating were prepared by filling carbon in the interlayer-expanded micropores of MWW-type zeolites. The carbon in the pores was readily heated by MW radiation. When the catalyst was heated in a nitrogen stream by MW radiation at 50 W of consumed electric power, the temperature reached 450 °C for 300 s. However, the temperatures of the MWW-type zeolite and the physical mixture of the MWW-type zeolite and graphite powder were 140 °C and 260 °C, respectively. This indicated that the carbon-filled interlayer-expanded MWW was suitable for MW heating. The methylation of toluene with methanol catalyzed using a proton-type C@expanded MWW by MW heating proceeded at a lower reaction temperature, compared with that of the methylation catalyzed using the physical mixture of the MWW-type zeolite and graphite. This indicated that the carbon-incorporated catalysts were suitable for MW heating and that the internal temperature of the catalyst particles was higher than the external temperature. This enhanced the shape selectivity because the reaction preferentially proceeded inside the pores.

1,3-butadiene production by crotyl alcohol dehydration over solid acids and catalyst deactivation by water adsorption

Atsushi Segawa, Tatsuya Ichijo, Nobuhiro Kimura, Keisuke Tsuruta, Naohiro Yoshida, Masaki Okamoto

Journal of the Japan Petroleum Institute (Journal of the Japan Petroleum Institute) 63 ( 2 ) 70 - 78 2020

ISSN 13468804

　View Summary

The synthesis of 1,3-butadiene via the dehydration of crotyl alcohol (2-buten-1-ol) over solid acids (six silica-alumina catalysts, two zeolite catalysts, and one γ-alumina catalyst) was assessed. Crotyl alcohol conversion and butadiene selectivity were both 95% or more over commercial silica-alumina catalysts. However, a sudden decrease in catalytic activity was observed during the reaction. Since the deactivated catalyst was regenerated by drying at 150°C -200°C, results showed that the main cause of the catalyst deactivation was the adsorption of water formed during the reaction and not the coke formation. An analysis of the deactivated catalyst indicated that, since the formation of Al-OH by the hydrolysis of the Al-O-Al bond increased the hydrophilicity of the catalyst surface, the adsorption of water on the catalyst surface was promoted, while that of crotyl alcohol was probably inhibited. Also, based on the catalyst characterization, the silica-alumina catalysts with few silanol groups, few alumina-rich zones, and a low Si/Al ratio were preferable.

Synthesis of Short, Needle-Shaped Crystals of TON-Type Zeolite by Addition of Inhibitors of Crystal Growth along the [001] Direction

Masaki Okamoto, Yohei Nishimura, Miyuki Takahashi, Wei Hung Chen

Crystal Growth and Design (Crystal Growth and Design) 18 ( 11 ) 6573 - 6580 2018.11

ISSN 15287483

　View Summary

TON-type zeolite crystals in the shape of short needles were synthesized using inhibitors of crystal growth along the [001] direction. When fluoride was used as a mineralizer, bulky amines incorporating structure-directing agents acted as inhibitors, while nonionic surfactants were more effective as inhibitors for decreasing the crystal length of TON-type zeolite. The amount of surfactant adsorbed on the zeolite increased with the surface area of the face containing pore mouths. This indicates that the surfactant was trapped in the pore mouths to inhibit crystal growth along the long axis of the needle-shaped crystals. By microscopic observation of the crystals, we confirmed inhibition of crystal growth by adsorption of the surfactant. After adsorption of Nile red, a lipophilic stain that is intensely fluorescent in surfactants, on as-synthesized zeolite, only the edges of the needle-shaped crystals were luminous, also indicating adsorption of the surfactant in pore mouths. When hydroxide was used as a mineralizer, the bulky amines acted as inhibitors. Nonionic surfactants, however, did not work. We used the obtained shorter crystals of TON-type zeolites as catalysts for hydroisomerization of n-tetradecane. Use of the shorter crystals improved the selectivity for skeletal isomerization.
