文摘

Titanium silicalite-1(TS-1)was synthesized by a hydrothermal synthesis method with different amounts of tetrapropyl ammonium hydroxide(TPAOH)as template. The as-prepared TS-1 was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray powder diffraction, Fourier-transform infrared resonance spectroscopy, ultravioletvisible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy and nitrogen physical adsorption and desorption, and studied in the propylene epoxidation with hydrogen peroxide in a fixed bed reactor. The results showed that the amount of TPAOH had a strong influence on the grain morphology, the amount of framework Ti, and the average particle sizes of TS-1. With the increase of TPAOH amount in the synthesis(the molar ratio of TPAOH/SiO₂ increasing from 0.25 to 0.45), the morphology changed gradually from ellipsoids to cubes, the particle sizes of TS-1 decreased slightly, the amount of the framework Ti increased appreciably, and the catalytic stability in the propylene epoxidation increased markedly. Moreover, all the catalysts had the same selectivity to propylene epoxide. However, when the molar ratio of TPAOH/SiO₂ was further increased to 0.55, the particles became large hexagons with the size distribution in a wide range, and the catalytic stability decreased sharply although the amount of the framework Ti increased further, which can be attributed to the long diffusion paths of the reactants in the zeolite.
