Post-synthesis of Sn-beta zeolite by aerosol method.

ABSTRACT: Sn-beta zeolite is a Lewis acid catalyst which can activate the C-O and C[double bond, length as m-dash]O bonds of many organic compounds. In this paper, a simple aerosol method has been firstly applied to the post-synthesis of Sn-beta zeolite. The aqueous solution containing SnCl₂ and dealuminated beta zeolite was rapidly dried using an aerosol generator to obtain the Sn-beta zeolites with different Sn contents. The physicochemical properties of the Sn-beta zeolites were further characterized by XRD, nitrogen adsorption-desorption, FT-IR and Py-FT-IR techniques. The catalysts exhibited good catalytic performances in the Baeyer-Villiger oxidation reaction of cyclohexanone.
