Kinetic and spectroscopic studies of vinyl acetate synthesis over Pd(100)
نویسندگان
چکیده
A kinetic study of vinyl acetate (VA) synthesis over a Pd(100) catalyst is described, and the effect of particle-size on this reaction ascertained by comparing the single crystal data with data from supported Pd catalysts (5 wt% Pd/SiO2, dPd=4.2 nm, and 1 wt% Pd/SiO2, dPd=2.5 nm). A negative reaction order with respect to ethylene and a positive order with respect to oxygen were found for the model and supported catalytic systems, whereas the catalytic stability was strongly dependent on the particle size. The mechanism for VA synthesis is proposed to be identical on all catalysts studied based on the similarities of the kinetic parameters. Carbon-containing species on the poisoned Pd(100) catalyst were investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and the coverage was estimated to be approximately 1.5 ML after VA synthesis.

Synthesis of vinyl acetate on Pd-based catalysts
Vinyl acetate (VA) synthesis over Pd–Au catalysts is an important industrial reaction that has been studied extensively; however, there is no consensus regarding the reaction mechanism, the active site, the key intermediates, and the role of Au. Recent results from our laboratories using a combination of surface science and kinetic methods on technical and model catalytic systems have establish...
متن کاملA kinetic study of vinyl acetate synthesis over Pd-based catalysts: kinetics of vinyl acetate synthesis over Pd–Au/SiO2 and Pd/SiO2 catalysts
Kinetic studies of vinyl acetate (VA) synthesis were carried out for Pd (1.0 wt%)/SiO2 and Pd (1.0 wt%)–Au (0.5 wt%)/SiO2 catalysts, with highly dispersed metal particles (Pd and Pd–Au) characterized by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy–energy dispersive spectroscopy (TEM-EDS). The kinetics of the related CO oxidation reaction were also explored. The kinetics of VA synthesi...

متن کاملThe formation of PdCx over Pd-based catalysts in vapor-phase vinyl acetate synthesis: does a Pd–Au alloy catalyst resist carbide formation?
The formation of Pd carbide (PdCx) during the synthesis of vinyl acetate (VA) was investigated over Pd/SiO2 catalysts with two different Pd particle sizes, as well as over a Pd–Au/SiO2 mixed-metal catalyst. XRD data show that PdCx was produced in the pure Pd catalysts after reaction based on the downshift of the Pd(111) and (200) XRD features. The smaller Pd particles showed greater resistance ...
