Embodiment 1

[0056] The preparation of embodiment 1 supported phosphoric acid catalyst

[0057] The carrier to be impregnated was calcined at 500° C. for 6 h in an air atmosphere, and then cooled to room temperature. 50 g of the calcined carrier was weighed, and an equal volume of impregnated with phosphoric acid aqueous solution was added. After immersing at room temperature for 12 hours, the resulting mixture was dried at 110°C, and then heated to 550°C for 4 hours in an air atmosphere at 10°C / min. 40 mesh spare. The oxide supports and phosphoric acid loadings used in different samples are shown in Table 1.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing styrene from toluene and trioxymethylene. The method at least comprises the following steps: raw material gas containing methylbenzene and trioxymethylene is introduced into a reactor; the raw material gas first contacts a catalyst I, so that the trioxymethylene is depolymerized into formaldehyde; and the obtained mixed gas contacts a catalyst II forcarrying out a side-chain alkylation reaction to prepare the styrene. According to the method, the formaldehyde generated by depolymerization of the trioxymethylene is used for replacing methanol to serve as a side-chain alkylation reagent, so that a hydrogen transfer reaction between styrene and methanol can be effectively avoided when the methanol is used as an alkylation reagent, the styrene / ethylbenzene ratio in the product is improved, and the method has the characteristics of high toluene conversion rate, high styrene selectivity in the product, and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing styrene from toluene and paraformaldehyde, which belongs to the field of chemical industry. Background technique [0002] Styrene (ST), as the most basic aromatic chemical, is the most used chemical product among benzene derivatives, and can be used to manufacture polystyrene (PS), expanded polystyrene (EPS), acrylonitrile-butanediene Various downstream chemical products such as ethylene-styrene resin (ABS), styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) and so on. At present, the mainstream technology for industrial production of styrene is the dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene, which includes two steps of alkylation of benzene and ethylene to produce ethylbenzene and dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene to produce styrene. Due to the problems of long process flow, many side reactions, high energy consumption and excessive dependence on petroleum resources in ethylbenzene dehydrogenation, the development of new styrene produc...
