2, active carbon etc.
The preparation method of preparation load metal oxide has multiple, mainly can be divided into following several:
(1) precipitation heat decomposition method:
The precipitation heat decomposition method is under stirring state the metallic salt material fully to be mixed with carrier, drips alkaline precipitating agent, generates the hydroxide or the carbonate of metal, and after the oven dry, elevated temperature heat resolves into metal oxide in inert gas or air.People such as Yanhui Li utilize this method with CeO
2Preparation is on CNT (CNTs), and they are at first with CeCl
3Slowly adding in the dispersion liquid of CNTs, after fully stirring, is 9 at Dropwise 5 %NaOH until pH, and again with after the suspension oven dry, under 450 ℃ of conditions, heating is 20 minutes in the air, and making the CeOH thermal decomposition is CeO

(2) heat of immersion decomposition method:
The metal precursor (nitrate, ammonium salt, formates, oxalates, acetate, organo-metallic compound etc.) that at first will be easy to thermal decomposition is fully mixed with carrier, dipping, after the oven dry, again in inert gas or air under the high temperature, thermal decomposition becomes metal oxide to make [A.F.P é rez-Cadenas et al, Journal ofCatalysis, 217 (2003) 30-37; Hui-Hsin Tseng, et al, Carbon, 41 (2003) 1079-1085].
(3) colloid method:
The colloidal particle for preparing metal oxide in advance, then by dip loading on carrier; Perhaps preparing metallic colloid carries out simultaneously with dipping.People such as J.Vondra ' k utilize this method successfully to prepare highly active MnO
x/ C catalyst, they at first disperse the 4g carbon dust and the MnSO that contains 10mmol
4The aqueous solution is poured the KMnO that contains 33mmol subsequently into
4Be dissolved in 95 ℃ of 300ml water and react tens of seconds, purple solution until high manganese ion disappears, be cooled to room temperature, stirred for several hour to solution by the isabelline lark that becomes, filter, after the washing, make [J.Vondra ' k after 110 ℃ of oven dry, et al, J.NewMater.Electrochem.Syst., 1 (1998) 25; Petr Bezdicka, et al, Electrochimica Acta, 45 (1999) 913-920].
From the above method for preparing the load metal oxide catalyst commonly used, we can recognize, precipitation heat decomposition method and heat of immersion decomposition method are methods the most commonly used, and it is convenient, simple, can prepare most metal oxide catalyst, but this method need be carried out roasting under hot conditions, and this just exists serious energy consumption issues, because the roasting of high temperature has increased preparation time again, this just exists the tediously long problem of preparation process simultaneously; And colloid method, though it can prepare catalyst efficiently, course of reaction does not need high-temperature process, but needs strict control in the preparation process, process is very complicated.In above method, exist a common problem, the catalyst that is exactly gained all needs to carry out mechanical lapping at last, otherwise can not use.Therefore, particle is bigger.
Summary of the invention
The objective of the invention is to shortcoming, a kind of load metal oxide Preparation of catalysts method is provided at the prior art existence.Characteristics such as that the present invention has is quick, energy-conservation, not segregation of heterogeneous system, finished product are powdered naturally.
Load metal oxide Preparation of catalysts method of the present invention may further comprise the steps:
(1) elder generation is fully mixed to pastel with the predecessor of carrier, catalyst activity component;

The ratio of the predecessor of above-mentioned carrier and catalyst activity component is 99.9%: 0.1% to 5%: 90%;
(2) this pastel is put into microwave system, select microwave susceptor material, carry out microwave treatment, the processing time is that microwave treatment time is 1~20 minute, makes it dry;
Above-mentioned microwave susceptor material is carbon black, titanium carbide, tungsten carbide, molybdenum carbide, CNT; The addition of microwave susceptor material is 10~1000 times of pastel;
(3) through the carrier of microwave drying and the mixture of active material predecessor, in microwave system, further carry out microwave treatment, the time of processing is 1~120 minute, makes the final thermal decomposition of active material predecessor become corresponding oxide;
The microwave frequency band of the microwave treatment in above-mentioned (2) and (3) step is 0.896GHz~2.45GHz, and the power of microwave system is 500W~2000W, and temperature is controlled at 600 ℃-800 ℃.
(1) the employed mixed method of step is that ultrasonic wave or mechanical agitation are mixed.
As improvement of the technical scheme, the inorganic salts of the predecessor of catalyst activity component comprise carbonate, nitrate, perchlorate or ammonium salt in (1) step.

Compared with the prior art, the present invention has following beneficial effect:
One, preparation speed is very fast.Heating using microwave is the body heating that material is caused by dielectric loss in electromagnetic field.In microwave field, the material molecule dipole polarization speed of response and microwave frequency are suitable, yet the dielectric dipole polarization that causes under microwave action often lags behind microwave frequency again, make the microwave field energy loss and are converted into heat energy.Therefore, the fuel factor of microwave is that the inside at medium takes place when microwave field applies, because this fuel factor is not to obtain indirectly through overheated conduction or thermal convection current from other media, but directly from the inside to the outside, self synchronous pyrogenicity, therefore, the heat conduction or the required time of thermal convection current process that do not have traditional heating.In the method, the time of microwave treatment is 1-120 minute, is generally 2-30 minute, is generally 3-10 minute, is significantly smaller than the required time of conventional method.Add all and mix the processing time that whole process of preparation is no more than 4 hours.This shows that adopt method of the present invention will need the time of tens hours even several days to be reduced to two hours with conventional method preparation, speed improves a lot.
Two, preparation process is energy-conservation.Because what we adopted is microwave treatment method, utilizes the dielectric heat effect of microwave to carrier, makes the temperature of carrier to reach higher temperature in tens of seconds, whole microwave process can be finished at short notice, and is very energy-conservation.And conventional method consumes the energy in a large number at the process need dozens of of heat drying, high-temperature process hour.
Three, not phase-splitting of multicomponent system.According to the mechanism of crystal growth, the salting liquid degree of super saturation is big more, and the nucleus of crystal generating rate is big more, and crystalline growth speed is less relatively, and crystallization as a result has little time growth, and the particle that obtains is less.Because microwave energy is evenly heated salting liquid in a short period of time, has eliminated the influence of thermograde greatly, makes precipitated phase sprout nucleation in moment, salt mixture has little time phase-splitting and separates out, thereby obtains uniform nano particle.And because nucleation rate is fast, and particle has little time to grow up, and the particle of formation is noncrystalline state to a great extent, there are a lot of defectives on the surface of particle, thereby has improved catalytic activity.
Four of advantage of the present invention is dried product nature powdereds, need not carry out mechanical crushing.Above-mentioned known, the dried product of conventional method needs further mechanical crushing, otherwise can not use.And be Powdered naturally with the material that this method is prepared into, do not need special pulverizing.When unusual high activity thing load capacity, the bonding The apparent phenomenon of part may appear after the drying, and still, handle shake gently or it is vibrated at once a little from powdered, do not need machining.
