Abstract
The catalytic properties and X-ray phase structure of molybdophosphoric heteropoly acid modified with Sb, W, and Nb ions have been studied in the reaction of propane oxidation. The additive of Nb ions increases the total activity of catalyst and its selectivity to acrolein and acrylic acid and decreases the selectivity to propylene. The concentration of Nb ions in samples is varied from 0.025 to 1 mol %. The concentration of Nb ions at a level of 0.025–0.1 mol % has the most profound effect on the reaction selectivity and the yield of mild oxidation products. The reaction selectivity depends on both the concentration of added niobium and the reaction conditions. The growth in the reaction temperature increases the conversion and selectivity to acrolein and reduces the selectivity to acrylic acid and propylene. The use of reaction mixture with higher propane concentrations decreases sharply the selectivity to acrolein. The obtained data can be explained by the possibility of the rearrangement of Nb ions between the cationic and anionic sublattices of heteropoly acids and by the change in the ratio between the acrolein and acrylic acid formation rates. The development and application of heteropoly compounds modified with niobium permits to increase the yield of target products in the partial propane oxidation.
