Abstract
Zeolite catalysts have been widely applied in petroleum and chemical industries. Nano/hierarchical structure could improve the utilization efficiency of active sites, especially for metal species encapsulated in zeolites. However, the uniformity of zeolite surface and crystallinity would decrease, leading to low stabilization effect. Herein, we developed a seed-directed method to prepare Pd clusters (∼1.3 nm) regioselectively encapsulated in hollow polycrystalline shell of Silicalite-1 zeolite. In nitrobenzene hydrogenation reaction, the optimized Pd@S-1-hp showed a high conversion of 92.2 % at 110 °C, which is 40 % higher than that of Pd clusters in bulk zeolite. Sub-nano Pd species in polycrystalline shell could significantly shorten the diffusion length on the basis of strong microporous confinement effect. Catalytic hydrogenation activity remained stable after six cycles. This structure could be extended to heterogeneous reactions suffering from diffusion limitation.
期刊介绍:
Microporous and Mesoporous Materials covers novel and significant aspects of porous solids classified as either microporous (pore size up to 2 nm) or mesoporous (pore size 2 to 50 nm). The porosity should have a specific impact on the material properties or application. Typical examples are zeolites and zeolite-like materials, pillared materials, clathrasils and clathrates, carbon molecular sieves, ordered mesoporous materials, organic/inorganic porous hybrid materials, or porous metal oxides. Both natural and synthetic porous materials are within the scope of the journal.
Topics which are particularly of interest include:
All aspects of natural microporous and mesoporous solids
The synthesis of crystalline or amorphous porous materials
The physico-chemical characterization of microporous and mesoporous solids, especially spectroscopic and microscopic
The modification of microporous and mesoporous solids, for example by ion exchange or solid-state reactions
All topics related to diffusion of mobile species in the pores of microporous and mesoporous materials
Adsorption (and other separation techniques) using microporous or mesoporous adsorbents
Catalysis by microporous and mesoporous materials
Host/guest interactions
Theoretical chemistry and modelling of host/guest interactions
All topics related to the application of microporous and mesoporous materials in industrial catalysis, separation technology, environmental protection, electrochemistry, membranes, sensors, optical devices, etc.
