Abstract
- Silicoaluminophosphate zeotype with LTA structure (SAPO-LTA) was prepared using ionothermal approach in commercial 1-ethyl-3-methyl imidazolium ([emim]+) ionic liquid. 1H→13C CP/MAS NMR, TGA and CHN elementary analysis results demonstrated that ionic liquid acted as single organic template occluded in pairs in each α cage of the structure. SAPO-LTA exhibited high structural stability after detemplation with excellent BET surface area and microporous volume. Silica content in the products increased with that in the initial reactants with a maximum of SiO 2 wt% lower than 5%. 29Si MAS NMR and NH 3 -TPD results further proved the incorporation of Si in the framework with improved acidity as compared with its aluminophosphate (AlPO) counterpart. SAPO-LTA was active in MTO reaction, showing higher butene and C 5+ product selectivity than that of SAPO-34 with CHA structure, and higher propene to ethylene and lower C 1 to C 4 alkane selectivity in comparison with that of high-silica LTA zeolite (LTA-HSZ). The deactivation of SAPO-LTA catalyst was due to the occlusion of bulky polyaromatic coke in the LTA structure, and could be perfectly recovered during three cycles of regeneration by high-temperature calcination. Image 1 • SAPO-LTA were ionothermally prepared in commercial [emim]+ ionic liquid. • Ionic liquid acted as single organic template occluded in pairs in each α cage of the structure. • The detemplated SAPO-LTA exhibited high structural stability with excellent texture property. • SAPO-LTA with improved acidity was active in MTO reaction showing unique product selectivity. • The deactivated SAPO-LTA could be perfectly recovered by high temperature calcination.
