Influence of Morphology of Silica-Alumina Composites on Their Activity for Hydrolytic Dehydrogenation of Ammonia Borane Naoki TOYAMA ※ 1, Shinobu OHKI ※ 2, Masataka TANSHO ※ 2, Tadashi SHIMIZU ※ 2, Tetsuo UMEGAKI ※ 1†, and Yoshiyuki KOJIMA ※ 1 (Received January 5, 2016)

In this work, we investigate the influence of the morphology of silica-alumina composites on their activity for hydrolytic dehydrogenation of ammonia borane. Three type of composites, hollow spheres, fine particles, and spherical particles are prepared by sol-gel method. The hollow spheres were prepared by using polystyrene particles as templates. The morphology of composites were observed by transmission electron microscopy. The activity of each type of composite for hydrolytic dehydrogenation of ammonia borane was compared. In the presence of the hollow spheres, the fine particles, and the spherical particles, 10, 2.5, and 1.5 mL of hydrogen was released with the completion times of the reaction being 12, 2, and 1 min, respectively. The amount of hydrogen evolution from the hollow spheres was much higher as compared to those from the fine particles and the spherical particles. Temperature-programmed desorption of ammonia suggested that the hollow spheres possess both weak and strong Brønsted acid sites, while the fine particles and the spherical particles possess only the weak Brønsted acid sites. These results indicate that the morphology of the silica-alumina composites influences their acidic properties, and the strong Brønsted acid sites are more effective for hydrolytic dehydrogenation of ammonia borane, as compared to the weak Brønsted acid sites. 本研究では,球状中空シリカ -アルミナ,シリカ -アルミナ微粒子および球状シリカ -アルミナをそれぞれ調製し,シリカ -アルミナ の形態の違いがアンモニアボラン加水分解活性に与える影響について検討を行った。すべての試料はゾル - ゲル法によって調製し, 球状中空シリカ -アルミナはポリスチレン粒子をテンプレートとする方法で調製した。透過型電子顕微鏡写真の結果から, 球状中空体, 微粒子および球状体が確認できた。これらの試料を用いてアンモニアボラン加水分解活性を行った。球状中空体,微粒子および 球状体の存在下では,10,2.5,および 1.5 mL の水素発生が 12,2 および 1 min にそれぞれ完了した。この結果から,球状中空 体の活性が微粒子および球状体と比較して高活性であった。またアンモニア昇温脱離測定の結果から, 球状中空体は弱ブレンステッ ド酸点および強ブレンステッド酸点を有しており,微粒子および球状体は弱ブレンステッド酸点のみ有していた。以上の結果から,シ リカ -アルミナの形態は酸性質に影響があり,強ブレンステッド酸点は,弱ブレンステッド酸点よりもアンモニアボラン加水分解に有効 であることが示唆された。

Then, the recycled hollow spheres were calcined at 723 K at heating rate of 0.5 K min -1, and cooling down immediately after the designated temperature was reached. The recycled hollow spheres after calcination showed same activity as the recycled hollow spheres. These results suggest that almost all the acidic protons on Brønsted acid sites of the hollow Fig. 3 The H2/NH3BH3 molar ratios of hydrogen generated from aqueous NH 3 BH 3 solution (0.14 wt.%, 3.5 mL) in the presence of (a) hollow silica-alumina composite spheres (0.8 g), (b) silica-alumina composite fine particles (0.8 g), and (c) spherical silica-alumina composite particles (0.8 g)

The acidic properties of the silica-alumina composites were measured using NH 3 -TPD. Fig. 6 shows NH 3 -TPD profiles of the hollow spheres, the fine particles, and the spherical particles. The NH 3 desorption from the hollow spheres showed two peaks: first peak at around 420 K (low temperature peak) and a broad peak at around 580 K (high Fig. 4 TEM images of hollow silica-alumina composite spheres (a) before and (b) after reaction for hydrolytic dehydrogenation of NH3BH3

Fig. 7 shows the H 2 /NH 3 BH 3 molar ratio for the hydrogen evolved from aqueous NH3BH3 solution versus the amount of Brønsted acid sites of the composites. According to the result, the amount of hydrogen evolution increases with increase of the amount of Brønsted acid sites. The amount of Brønsted acid sites in the fine particles is found to be 1.7 times higher than those in the spherical particles.

The low temperature peaks can be attributed to Brønsted acid sites with weakly adsorbed NH3 (weak Brønsted acid sites), while the high temperature peak observed for the hollow spheres can be attributed to Brønsted acid sites with strongly absorbed NH3 (strong Brønsted acid sites) 41) ~ 43). These results indicate that the hollow spheres possess both weak and strong Brønsted acid sites, while the fine particles

Moreover, the amount of hydrogen evolved from the fine particles is 2 times higher than that from the spherical particles. On the other hand, the amount of Brønsted acid sites of the hollow spheres was 3 times higher than that of spherical particles, and the amount of hydrogen evolution of the hollow spheres is 8.7 times higher than those in the spherical particles. Based on the results of Figs. 3 and 5, it can be suggested that the morphology of silica-alumina composites influences their acidic properties, and that the strong Brønsted acid sites are more effective for hydrolytic dehydrogenation of NH3BH3 than the weak Brønsted acid sites.

TEM images were used to observe the morphology of the hollow spheres, the fine particles, and the spherical particles. The activity of each type of composite for hydrolytic dehydrogenation of NH 3 BH 3 was compared. According to the results, the amount of hydrogen evolved in the presence of the hollow spheres was significantly higher as compared to those evolved in the presence of the fine particles and the spherical particles.
