This application relates to a method for preparing a porous organic framework atomic catalyst, and more particularly to a method for preparing a porous organic framework-supported atomic noble metal catalyst for catalytic oxidation of VOCs at room temperature.
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are a class of predominant air pollutants. As defined by the World Health Organization, VOCs are those organic compounds having a boiling point of 50-260° C. and a saturated vapor pressure of more than 133 Pa at room temperature, which includes alkanes, alkenes, aromatic hydrocarbons and derivatives thereof, alcohols, aldehydes and ketones, amines and amides, acids and anhydrides.
In China, the conventional methods for treating VOCs include catalytic incineration, low-temperature plasma processing and ultraviolet photocatalysis. However, these methods often require high temperature, which will result in high energy consumption and potential safety problems in the treatment of flammable and explosive VOCs.
An object of the invention is to provide a method for preparing a porous organic framework-supported atomic noble metal catalyst for catalytic oxidation of VOCs at room temperature to overcome the shortcomings in the prior art, where the prepared catalyst for catalytic oxidation of VOCs at room temperature has atomic active sites, excellent catalytic activity and reusability.
The technical solutions of the invention are specifically described as follows.
The invention provides a method for preparing a porous pyridine-amide framework-supported atomic noble metal catalyst, comprising:
step (1) adding triethylamine to a dichloromethane solution and stirring evenly to obtain a first solution;
wherein a volume ratio of the triethylamine to the dichloromethane solution is 1:10;
step (2) adding 2,6-diaminopyridine and 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid chloride to the first solution and stirring evenly to obtain a second solution;
wherein a molar ratio of 2,6-diaminopyridine to 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid chloride is 3:1; and a volume ratio of 2,6-diaminopyridine and 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid chloride to the first solution is 1:2;
step (3) reacting the second solution in an oil bath at 30-90° C. for 2-8 h to produce a porous pyridine-amide framework;
step (4) impregnating the porous pyridine-amide framework completely in a 0.05-0.5 mol/L noble metal salt solution; treating the reaction system by ultrasonication for 1-5 h; allowing the reaction system to stand at 10-30° C. for 6-12 h to obtain a porous pyridine-amide framework-supported noble metal;
wherein a noble metal in the noble metal salt solution is 0.05-0.5% by weight of the porous pyridine-amide framework;
step (5) dropwise adding a 0.1-0.5 mol/L sodium borohydride solution to the reaction system containing the porous pyridine-amide framework-supported noble metal; and stirring vigorously until no hydrogen generation is observed to reduce the porous pyridine-amide framework-supported noble metal;
step (6) collecting the reduced porous pyridine-amide framework-supported noble metal from the noble metal salt solution; washing the reduced porous pyridine-amide framework-supported noble metal several times with deionized water; and drying the reduced porous pyridine-amide framework-supported noble metal in a vacuum dryer at 40-80° C. for 2-6 h;
step (7) collecting and calcining the dried porous pyridine-amide framework-supported noble metal obtained in step (6) in a muffle furnace at 100-600° C. for 2-6 h to produce the porous pyridine-amide framework-supported atomic noble metal catalyst.

The invention provides a method for preparing a porous organic framework-supported atomic noble metal catalyst for catalytic oxidation of VOCs at room temperature, which is specifically described as follows.
(1) Preparation of a Porous Organic Framework
(1-1) Triethylamine is added to a dichloromethane solution, where a volume ratio of the triethylamine to the dichloromethane solution is 1:10. The reaction mixture is evenly stirred to produce a first solution.
(1-2) 2,6-diaminopyridine and 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid chloride are added into the first solution, where a molar ratio of 2,6-diaminopyridine to 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid chloride is 3:1, and a volume ratio of 2,6-diaminopyridine and 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid chloride in total to the first solution is 1:2. The reaction mixture is stirred evenly to produce a second solution.
(1-3) The second solution is reacted in an oil bath at 30-90° C. for 2-8 h to produce a porous pyridine-amide framework.
Preferably, a temperature of the oil bath is 40-60° C. and a reaction time is 4-6 h, where this reaction temperature not only accelerates the reaction, but also avoids damages caused by high temperature to the organic framework.
(2) Preparation of a Porous Organic Framework-Supported Noble Metal by Impregnation
(2-1) The porous organic frame work is impregnated completely in a 0.05-0.5 mol/L noble metal salt solution, treated under ultrasonication for 1-5 h and then placed at 10-30° C. for 6-12 h to produce a porous organic framework-supported noble metal, where the noble metal in the noble metal salt solution is 0.05-0.5% by weight of the porous organic framework.
The noble metal salt solution is preferably a solution of HAuCl4 or H2PtCl6, and more preferably the solution of H2PtCl6, because atomic Pt catalyst has better catalytic activity.
Preferably, an ultrasonication time is 1.5-3 h, which allows the noble metal to be evenly loaded on the porous pyridine-amide framework, because a too short ultrasonication time will lead to uneven dispersion, and a too long ultrasonication time will render the process time-consuming.
(2-2) The reaction system containing the porous organic framework-supported noble metal is dropwise added with a 0.1-0.5 mol/L sodium borohydride solution, and stirred vigorously until no hydrogen generation is observed to reduce the porous organic framework-supported noble metal.
(2-3) The reduced porous organic framework-supported noble metal is collected, washed several times with deionized water and dried in a vacuum dryer at 40-80° C. for 2-6 h.
(3) Calcination
The dried porous organic framework-supported noble metal is collected and calcined in a muffle furnace at 100-600° C. for 2-6 h to produce the porous organic framework-supported atomic noble metal catalyst.
Preferably, a calcination temperature is 200-400° C., which avoids the damages caused by high temperature to the porous pyridine-amide framework. Preferably, a calcination time is 3-6 h, which allows the noble metal to be more stably loaded on the porous organic framework.
