摘要
The CO2 catalytic hydrogenation represents a promising approach for gas-phase CO2 utilization in a direct manner. Due to its excellent hydrogenation ability, nickel has been widely studied and has shown good activities in CO2 hydrogenation reactions, in addition to its high availability and low price. However, Ni-based catalysts are prone to sintering under elevated temperatures, leading to unstable catalytic performance. In the present study, various characterization techniques were employed to study the structural evolution of Ni/SiO2 during CO2 hydrogenation. An anti-sintering phenomenon is observed for both 9% Ni/SiO2 and 1% Ni/SiO2 during CO2 hydrogenation at 400°C. Results revealed that Ni species were re-dispersed into smaller-sized nanoparticles and formed Ni0 active species. While interestingly, this anti-sintering phenomenon leads to distinct outcomes for two catalysts, with a gradual increase in both reactivity and CH4 selectivity for 9% Ni/SiO2 presumably due to the formation of abundant surface Ni° from redispersion, while an apparent decreasing trend of CH4 selectivity for 1% Ni/SiO2 sample, presumably due to the formation of ultra-small nanoparticles that diffuse and partially filled the mesoporous pores of the silica support over time. Finally, the redispersion phenomenon was found relevant to the H2 gas in the reaction environment and enhanced as the H2 concentration increased. This finding is believed to provide in-depth insights into the structural evolution of Ni-based catalysts and product selectivity control in CO2 hydrogenation reactions.
