Abstract:

A series of nano Ga-ZSM-5 zeolites with different Si/Ga ratio were synthesized with seed-oriented method.Ga-ZSM-5 catalysts were obtained with extrusion molding,acid pickling and high temperature roasting.The structure and acid properties of Ga-ZSM-5 zeolites were characterized by various techniques and their catalytic performance in the alkylation of benzene with dilute ethylene were evaluated.The results showed that hydrothermal synthesized Ga-ZSM-5 molecular sieves exhibited intergrown morphologies and uniform particle size.Compared with Al-ZSM-5 zeolites with the same n(Si)/n(T)(T was metal atom),the acid content and acid strength of Ga-ZSM-5 zeolites were significantly reduced.Under the reaction conditions of T=360 ℃,P=1.4 MPa,weight hourly space velocity(WHSV) of ethylene=1.5 h-1,n(benzene)∶n(ethylene)=1∶1,n(ethylene)∶n(nitrogen)=1∶5.67,Ga-ZSM-5 zeolites catalysts showed higher ethylbenzene selectivity and 30%~50% reduction for xylene selectivity compared with Al-ZSM-5.In addition,Ga-ZSM-5 zeolites catalyst remained stable during the time on stream of 100 h with stronger coke-resistant capacity.

Key words: Ga-ZSM-5, alkylation of benzene with dilute ethylene, ethylbenzene, acid properties
