Catalyst for preparation of unsaturated nitriles
Abstract
Abstract IN THE PREPARATION OF UNSATURATED NITRILES BY CATALYTIC OXIDATION OF PROPYLENE OR ISOBUTYLENE WITH MOLECULAR OXYGEN IN THE PRESENCE OF AMMONIA USING A CATALYST COMPRISING OXIDES OF MOLYBDENUM, BISMUTH AND IRON, THE RESULTING UNSATURATED NITRILES ARE IPROVED IN YIELD BY USE OF A NOVEL CATALYST PREPARED BY INCORPORATING OXIDES OF COBALT AND ALKALI METALS (AT LEAST ONE OF SODIUM AND POTASSIUM) INTO SAID CATALYST IN SUCH A MANNER THAT THE ATOMIC RATIO OF MO/BI/FE/CO/NAT (OR K) MAY BE 12 1-11/1-9/1-6 0.5-2, WHEREIN THE SUM OF ATOMS OF BI AND CO IS CONTROLLED WITHIN 6-12, PREFERABLY 12/3.5-7/29/2-5/1/1. THE CATALYST IS USEFUL AS AN INDUSTRIAL CATALYST HAVING A HIGH CATALYST ACTIVITY AS WELL AS LONG LIFE, WHICH IS PARTICULARLY SUITABLE FOR USE IN A FLUIDIZEDBED REACTOR FOR THE PREPARATION OF UNSATURATD NITRILES FROM PROPYLENE AND ISOBUTYLENE.
