Encapsulation of ultrafine metal-oxide nanoparticles within mesopores for biomass-derived catalytic applications.


ABSTRACT: The development of efficient encapsulation strategies has attracted intense interest for preparing highly active and stable heterogeneous metal catalysts. However, issues related to low loadings, costly precursors and complex synthesis processes restrict their potential applications. Herein, we report a novel and general strategy to encapsulate various ultrafine metal-oxides nanoparticles (NPs) into the mesoporous KIT-6. The synthesis is facile, which only involves self-assembly of a metal-organic framework (MOF) precursor in the silica mesopores and a subsequent calcination process to transform the MOF into metal-oxide NPs. After the controlled calcination, the metal-oxide NPs produced from MOF decomposition are exclusively confined and uniformly distributed in the mesopores of KIT-6 with high metal loadings. Benefitting from the encapsulation effects, as-synthesized Co@KIT-6 materials exhibit superior catalytic activity and recycling stability in biomass-derived HMF oxidation under mild reaction conditions.
