Abstract
The cylindrical ${\gamma}$-alumina pellets were prepared by forming, hydration, drying and calcination after mixing amorphous alumina and pore generating agent with water. Concentration of Fe(NO$_3$)$_3$ㆍ9$H_2O$ that was catalyst precursor was fixed and made mixing solution that changed concentration of $CH_3$COOH in range of 2.5~20%, and here ${\gamma}$-alumina pellets were immerged and were hydrothermaly treated for 3 h at $200^{\circ}C$. And then we investigated creation and change of crystal, pore characteristics, $N_2$ adsorption and desorption isotherms, changes of acid site and mechanical strengths etc. According to the concentration of $CH_3$COOH, the crystals grew to acicular shape of 0.5~2${\mu}m$ length, and crystal structure showed the pseudo-boehmite structure. When hydrothermaly treated in 10% $CH_3$COOH solution, pore volume between 100~1000 $\AA$ was highest by 0.86 cc/g, and width of hysteresis curved line due to $N_2$ adsorption/desorption appeared as was smallest. When concentration of $CH_3$COOH was in range of 5~15%, new C-H functional groups were formed. Mechanical strength of pellets was highest by 1.35 MPa when $CH_3$COOH concentration was 2.5%.
비정질알루미나와 기공형성제를 물과 혼합하여 원통형으로 성형하고 수화, 건조 및 소성하여 ${\gamma}$-alumina pellets을 제조하였다. 촉매 전구체인 Fe(NO$_3$)$_3$ㆍ9$H_2O$의 농도를 일정하게 하면서 $CH_3$COOH의 농도를 2.5~20% 범위로 변화시킨 혼합용액을 제조하고, 여기에 ${\gamma}$-alumina pellets을 침척하여 $200^{\circ}C$ 온도로 3시간 수열처리 한 다음, 결정의 생성 및 변화, 기공특성, $N_2$ 흡/탈차특성, 산점변화 그리고 기계적 강도 등을 조사하였다. $CH_3$COOH 의 농도에 따라 0.5~2${\mu}m$ 길이의 침상으로 결정이 성장하였고, 결정구조는 의사베마이트 구조를 나타냈다. 10% $CH_3$COOH 용액에서 수열처리 했을 때 100~1000$\AA$사이의 기공부피가 0.86cc/g롤 가장 높았으며, 질소 흡탈착 이력곡선의 폭이 가장 작게 나타났다. $CH_3$COOH 농도가 5~15% 범위일 때 새로운 C-H 관능기가 형성되었고, 촉매의 기계적 강도도는 $CH_3$COOH 농도가 2.5%일 때 1.35MPa로 가장 높았다.
