Title: Preparation and catalytic performances of ultralarge-pore TiSBA-15 mesoporous molecular sieves with very high Ti content. Author: Vinu A, Srinivasu P, Miyahara M, Ariga K. Journal: J Phys Chem B; 2006 Jan 19; 110(2):801-6. PubMed ID: 16471606. Abstract: Highly ordered TiSBA-15 mesoporous molecular sieves with different nSi/nTi ratios and tunable pore diameters have been prepared through direct synthesis under various hydrochloric acid concentrations and synthetic temperatures. The structure and the textural parameters of the materials were investigated by powder X-ray diffraction and nitrogen adsorption/desorption measurements. Decrease of the acid concentration and nSi/nTi ratio in the synthetic gel enhanced the amount of Ti incorporation in SBA-15 materials without affecting their structural order and textural parameters. Highly ordered mesoporous TiSBA-15 with a very high Ti content up to a nSi/nTi ratio of 1.9 was prepared for the first time under the optimized synthesis conditions. Control of synthetic temperature resulted in tuning of pore geometries without structural deterioration and Ti content. Ultralarge-pore TiSBA-15 with a pore size of 12.6 nm and a pore volume of 1.3 cm3 g-1 was also synthesized. The nature and the coordination of the Ti atoms in SBA-15 prepared under various synthesis conditions were investigated by UV-vis spectroscopy. It has been found that the Ti atoms are well-dispersed and mostly occupy the tetrahedral coordination under the optimized synthesis conditions. Catalytic performance of the obtained TiSBA-15 materials was also investigated through oxidation of styrene by hydrogen peroxide and tert-butylhydroperoxide as oxidants.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
