WOx/SBA-15 nanocomposite materials with different WOx loadings were prepared by one step hydrothermal synthesis and used in the vapor-phase Beckmann rearrangement of cyclohexanone oxime to ɛ-caprolactam. The catalysts were thoroughly characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), sorption analysis, energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX) and Raman spectroscopy. The acidities of the catalysts were estimated by ammonia temperature programmed desorption (NH3-TPD) and Fourier transform infrared studies of adsorbed pyridine (pyridine-FTIR). The optimum temperature for the Beckmann rearrangement was 350 °C. Using WOx/SBA-15(20) under the vapor-phase reaction conditions [temperature = 350 °C, WHSV = 0.6 h−1, oxime concentration = 2.5% (w/w) in MeOH] gave 79% cyclohexanone oxime conversion with 93%, ɛ-caprolactam selectivity. The ɛ-caprolactam selectivity was found to be dependent on temperature and space velocity. A correlation has been made between the rearrangement activity and acidity and the structural properties of the catalysts.

The acidities of the catalysts were estimated by ammonia TPD and pyridine FTIR. Under optimized conditions WOx/SBA-15(20) gave maximum oxime conversion of 79% with 93%, ɛ-caprolactam selectivity.Figure optionsDownload high-quality image (59 K)Download as PowerPoint slide
