Abstract:

MgO/Co3O4 catalysts were synthesized from metal organic skeleton material(ZIF-67) as precursor loaded with MgO and applied to the aerobic oxidation of cyclohexane.The MgO/Co3O4 catalyst was systematically studied using characterization techniques such as X-ray diffraction(XRD),infrared spectroscopy(FT-IR),CO2 temperature programmed desorption(CO2-TPD),and transmission electron microscopy(TEM).The results showed that at low MgO loading,MgO and Co3O4 particles were uniformly distributed,and the interaction between the two phases led to some Mg2+ doping into the Co3O4 skeleton.At high MgO loading,MgO was aggregated seriously,resulting in a weakened interaction with Co3O4.The catalytic activity of MgO/Co3O4-x presented a volcano shape with increasing MgO loading.MgO/Co3O4-0.6 exhibited the best catalytic performance,with a cyclohexane conversion rate of 16.5% and a selectivity of 70.0% for cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone.The deactivation of catalysts was effectively retarded due to the incorporation of MgO adsorbing the organic acids and water.
