Abstract
The main reasons for the promoting effect of phosphorus on the properties of Pd–P/ZSM-5 palladium catalysts in the direct synthesis of H2O2 from H2 and O2 under mild conditions are considered based on data from X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP MS). It is shown that the introduction of phosphorus into the composition of the catalyst affects the dispersity, the electronic state of palladium in the surface layer, and the surface concentration of phosphate and phosphite ions. An increase in the H2O2 yield is favored by an increase in the dispersion of Pd–P-catalysts, inhibition of the side process of H2O2 decomposition by surface phosphate and phosphite ions, and a decrease in the solubility of hydrogen in solid solutions of phosphorus in palladium.
