Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The present application relates to the technical field of molecular sieves, in particular to a silicoaluminophosphate molecular sieve, its preparation and application thereof.


BACKGROUND ART

Molecular sieves are a family of porous, crystalline materials, and over 250 types of molecular sieves with known structures have been discovered to date. Most molecular sieves have large internal specific surface areas and open internal spaces that serve as sites for reactions and for holding guest molecules, such as metals, metal oxides, organic molecules, water molecules, and the like. Since molecular sieves have uniform and regular pore channels, and the size of the pore channels is in the same order of magnitude as that of molecules, the entrance and exit of the molecules can be selected, and thus a shape selection effect can be obtained. Because of the above characteristics, molecular sieves are widely used as catalysts, carriers of catalysts, adsorbents, detergents and the like, and are widely applied in the fields of petrochemical industry, environmental protection, adsorption and separation.


The framework of molecular sieves is typically made up of coordinated tetrahedrons (TO4) joined at a common vertex (normally the oxygen atom. For aluminophosphate molecular sieves, the framework of this type of molecular sieve is formed by connecting AlO4 tetrahedrons and PO4+ tetrahedrons, so that the entire molecular sieve framework appears electrically neutral. Of course, similar to zeolite, aluminum or phosphorus in aluminophosphate molecular sieves can be replaced by other elements, most commonly silicon (the resulting molecular sieve is referred to as SAPO) and transition metal elements (the resulting molecular sieve is referred to as MAPO), and the introduction of these elements endows the aluminophosphate molecular sieves with new characteristics, such as solid acidity or redox properties, etc. The artificial synthesis studies of aluminophosphate molecular sieves are relatively late compared to zeolite molecular sieves.


In 1971, Flanigen et al reported the synthesis of aluminophosphate molecular sieves [Flanigen E. M. and Grose R. W., Phosphorus Substitution in Zeolite Frameworks. in Molecular Sieve Zeolites-I, 1970, P76-P98, ACS, Washingtom D.C], which comprises mixing oxides of aluminum, silicon and phosphorus under hydrothermal synthesis conditions, and produces silicoaluminophosphate molecular sieves having the same crystal structure as analcime, chabazite, phillipsite-harmotome, zeolite L, A, and B, etc., where the phosphorus content is 5-25% (calculated as P2O5), but no structure different from that of zeolite is found.


U.S. Pat. No. 4,310,440 describes the hydrothermal synthesis of a series of aluminophosphate molecular sieves using organic amines or quaternary ammonium cations as templates, which include: AlPO4-5, AlPO4-8, AlPO4-9, AlPO4-11, AlPO4-12, AlPO4-14, AlPO4-16, AlPO4-17, AlPO4-18, AlPO4-20, AlPO4-21, AlPO4-22, AlPO4-23, AlPO4-25, AlPO4-26, AlPO4-28, AlPO4-31, etc., and the templates used include tetramethylammonium hydroxide, tetraethylammonium hydroxide, tetrapropylammonium hydroxide, tetrabutylammonium hydroxide, tripropylamine, triethylamine, isopropylamine, butylamine, ethylenediamine, piperidine and its derivatives, cyclohexylamine, DABCO, quinuclidine, and the like.


U.S. Pat. No. 4,440,871 describes the synthesis of silicon-containing aluminophosphate molecular sieves including SAPO-5, SAPO-11, SAPO-16, SAPO-17, SAPO-20, SAPO-31, SAPO-34, SAPO-35, SAPO-37, SAPO-40, SAPO-41, SAPO-42, SAPO-44 and the like.


U.S. Pat. No. 4,752,651 describes the synthesis of a series of metal-containing silicoaluminophosphate molecular sieves including titanium-containing TiAPSO, magnesium-containing MgAPSO, manganese-containing MnAPSO, cobalt-containing CoAPSO, zinc-containing ZnAPSO and iron-containing FeAPSO, and the like.


For the synthesis of aluminophosphate molecular sieves, the organic template is a main factor determining the structure of the resulting molecular sieve, and a new molecular sieve is often obtained by using a new template. So far, organic amine and quaternary ammonium type organic compounds are templates most widely used in the synthesis of aluminophosphate molecular sieves.
