Abstract:Hydrophobic Pt catalystsⅠwas prepared by vacuum impregnation-reduction with Al2O3 as carrier and H2PtCl6 as impregnation solution. With OTMS (n-octadecyltrimethoxysilane) as modifier, Hydrophobic catalystsⅡ, Ⅲ and Ⅳ were attained through changing the OTMS concentrations〔w(OTMS)=0.5% (based on the weight of toluene, the same below), 1.2% and 2%〕. The catalyst loadings of these four catalysts were 1.5% (based on the weight of Al2O3 carrier, the same below). The catalytic performances of H2-O2 recombination on conditions of dry, wet and water were studied. The catalysts were also characterized with XRD, FTIR, CA, SEM, BET and pulsed hydrogen-oxygen titration techniques. The results showed that, compared with catalystⅠwithout modified in OTMS solution, catalystⅡcan catalyze H2-O2 recombination more steadily on wet condition,and the H2 conversion is 96.25%. In the water phase, catalystsⅡ also has catalytic activity,but the H2 conversion decreases to 43.75% from 61.25% during the 40h-testing. Catalysts Ⅲ and Ⅳ can catalyze H2-O2 recombination steadily on wet and water conditions. The H2 conversion of catalysts Ⅲ and Ⅳ are 93.75%, 87.5% on wet condition and 76.25%, 63.75% on water condition. As the OTMS concentrations in the solution increase,the catalysts attain better hydrophobic performance, wet resistance and water resistance, but the specific surface area、Pt disparity and Pt active specific surface area decrease and then have effect on catalytic activity of these catalysts on dry, wet and water conditions.
