摘要
The oxidation of the reduced Re/gamma-A1(2)O(3) catalysts with dispersion of Re from 0.25 to 0.74 and metal particle sizes of 1-9 nm, was examined over a temperature range 20-500 degrees C. The structure of the catalysts was characterised using H-2 chemisorption, 02 uptake, BET and XPS and Raman spectroscopy. The O-2 uptake and XPS results showed that very small Re particles were in direct and strong contact with the oxygen atoms of the support. As a result, the O-2 uptakes were low at room temperature and even at 500 degrees C were lower than expected for oxidation of Reo to R2O7 oxide. On the other hand, XPS data indicated that at room temperature clusters and small Re particles were oxidised to Re4+ Re6+ and Re7+ species. The O/Re ratios at temperatures up to 200 degrees C increased with the Re dispersion what implies additionally, high affinity of the highly dispersed Re to oxygen. Fraction of rhenium strongly interacting with the support amounts to 6 or 19% of total Re in the catalysts with average particle sizes of about 5 or 1.5 nm, respectively. At higher temperatures the process of oxidation of rhenium accelerates, with instantaneous sublimation of Re2O7 oxide and in accord to Raman data, its simultaneous adsorption as the ReO4 Species on gamma-alumina. The O-2 uptake at 500 degrees C by the supported Re phase depends on the size of rhenium particles. Small Re particles could be oxidised to an oxidation level lower than heptvalent, while large particles to Re2O7. X PS and Raman data showed, however, that after treatment at 500 degrees C, independent on the particle size of the Re and its interaction with the support, whole rhenium was oxidised to Re7+ species. This species forms some kind of surface complex with an Al-O-ReO3 or Al-(O-ReO3)(3) structure, which inhibits the surface migration of rhenium and its loss from the oxidised catalysts.
