主 题:C_(4)alkylation Surface Zeolite Catalysis DFT calculation
摘 要:Elucidating the confinement effect harbours tremendous significance for isobutane alkylation with C_(4) olefin.Herein,the confinement effect over zeolite catalysts was elucidated by combining DFT calculations,experiments(using the novel Beta zeolite exposing only external surfaces(Beta-E)and conventional Beta-I zeolite with both external and internal surfaces)and multi-techniques(e.g.,TGA-DTG,HRTEM,SEM and XRD).It is found that the main active sites for C_(4) alkylation reaction are located on internal surface rather than external surface.On the external surface,the hydride transfer reaction does not occur because the H-shared intermediate cannot be formed without the confinement effect.Moreover,the external surface has stronger selectivity for C_(4) olefin adsorption than isobutane,leading to enhanced oligomerization reactions.Therefore,the suitable micropore with confinement effect is essential for zeolite-catalyzed C_(4) alkylation.The atomic-scale insights of this work are of great referential importance to the design of highly effective zeolite catalyst.
