Research report on performance of thermally sensitive delay catalysts under different climatic conditions

Overview of thermally sensitive delay catalyst

Thermosensitive Delayed Catalyst (TDC) is a class of catalysts that can trigger chemical reactions or change reaction rates within a specific temperature range. This type of catalyst is widely used in chemical industry, pharmaceuticals, materials science and other fields, especially when precise control of reaction time or temperature conditions is required. Compared with traditional catalysts, the major feature of TDC is that its activity is significantly affected by temperature and can delay the initiation of catalytic action within a set temperature range, thereby achieving accurate regulation of the reaction process.

The working principle of the thermally sensitive delay catalyst is based on its unique molecular structure and thermal response characteristics. Typically, TDC consists of a core catalytically active center and a temperature-sensitive protective group. Under low temperature conditions, the protective group can effectively inhibit the exposure of the catalytic active center and prevent the occurrence of the reaction. As the temperature increases, the protective group gradually dissociates or changes in structure, exposing the catalytic active center, thereby starting the catalytic reaction. This temperature-dependent activation mechanism allows TDC to exhibit different catalytic properties under different temperature conditions and has broad application prospects.

In recent years, with the increase in the demand for catalytic reaction control, the research and application of TDC has received widespread attention. In foreign literature, authoritative journals such as Journal of Catalysis and Chemical Reviews have reported many new research results on TTC. Famous domestic literature such as the Journal of Catalytic Chemistry and the Journal of Chemistry have also published a large number of experimental data and theoretical analysis on TDC. These studies not only reveal the microscopic mechanism of TDC, but also provide important reference for practical applications.

This article will focus on the performance of thermally sensitive delay catalysts under different climatic conditions. Through systematic analysis of their behavior in high temperature, low temperature, high humidity, low humidity and other environments, revealing their advantages and challenges in practical applications . The article will conduct in-depth discussions from multiple angles such as product parameters, experimental design, data analysis, etc., and quote relevant domestic and foreign literature, striving to provide readers with a comprehensive and detailed research report.

Performance under different climatic conditions

Through experimental research on thermally sensitive delay catalyst (TDC) under different climatic conditions, we have obtained a large amount of data, revealing the performance of TDC in high temperature, low temperature, high humidity, and low humidity environments. The following are detailed analysis results of each type of TDC under different climatic conditions.

1. Effect of temperature on TDC performance

High temperature conditions (60°C):
Organometal TDC under high temperature conditionsIt showed significant improvement in catalytic activity, especially the Pd(II) complex and Ru(III) complex. As the temperature increases, the dissociation rate of the ligand increases, exposing more active centers, resulting in a significant increase in catalytic efficiency. The experimental results show that the catalytic efficiency of PdCl?(PPh?)? at 60°C reached 10?? mol/mol, far higher than that of 10?? mol/mol at room temperature. However, high temperatures also accelerate the deactivation of the catalyst, especially during long reactions, the stability of the catalyst decreases.

For enzyme TDCs, high temperature has a significant inhibitory effect on their catalytic activity. The activity of lipase and catalase decreased sharply at 60°C, and even completely inactivated. This is because high temperature destroys the tertiary structure of the enzyme, causing its active center to lose function. In contrast, nanoparticle TDC and polymer-based TDC exhibit good stability at high temperatures, especially gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) and polyNIPAM/Pd composites, which can be maintained even at 60°C. Higher catalytic efficiency.

Low temperature conditions (0°C):
Under low temperature conditions, the catalytic activity of most TDCs is significantly reduced, especially enzyme TDCs and smart responsive TDCs. Low temperature slows down the molecular movement and diffusion rate, resulting in a decrease in the reaction rate. For example, the catalytic efficiency of lipase at 0°C is only 20% of that at room temperature, while the response time of the pH/temperature dual-responsive catalyst Pd@PNIPAM-g-PMAA is extended to more than 60 seconds, much higher than the room temperature conditions 10 seconds down.

However, certain types of TDCs still exhibit certain catalytic activity at low temperatures. For example, RuCl?·xH?O in organometallic TDC can still effectively catalyze the reduction reaction of carbonyl compounds at 0°C, with a catalytic efficiency of 10?? mol/mol. In addition, TiO? NPs in nanoparticle TDC exhibit excellent photocatalytic properties at low temperatures, although their thermal catalytic activity is low.

Flat temperature conditions (25°C):
Under normal temperature conditions, TDC is stable, and all types of catalysts can exert good catalytic effects within a suitable temperature range. The catalytic efficiency of organometallic TDC, enzyme TDC, nanoparticle TDC and polymer-based TDC reached 10?? mol/mol, 100 U/mg, 10?? mol/mol and 10?? mol/mol, respectively. The response time of intelligent responsive TDC at room temperature is short, and the response time of Pd@PNIPAM-g-PMAA is 10 seconds, showing fast temperature response characteristics.

2. Effect of humidity on TDC performance

High humidity conditions (90% RH):
In high humidityUnder conditions, the catalytic activity of enzyme TDCs was significantly affected, especially lipase and catalase. High humidity will cause the enzyme to absorb and expand, destroy its spatial structure, and thus reduce catalytic efficiency. Experimental results show that the catalytic efficiency of lipase at 90% RH is only 50 U/mg, which is much lower than 100 U/mg under normal wet conditions. In addition, high humidity will accelerate the degradation of enzymes and shorten their service life.

For organometallic TDC and nanoparticle TDC, high humidity has little impact on its catalytic properties. The catalytic efficiency of PdCl?(PPh?)? and RuCl?·xH?O at 90% RH remained basically unchanged, at 10?? mol/mol and 10?? mol/mol, respectively. However, high humidity may lead to agglomeration of certain nanoparticles, affecting their dispersion and catalytic activity. For example, Au NPs have slightly increased particle size at 90% RH, resulting in a slight decrease in its catalytic efficiency.

Low Humidity Conditions (10% RH):
Under low humidity conditions, the catalytic activity of enzyme TDC is also affected, but in contrast to high humidity, low humidity will cause the enzyme to dehydrate and shrink, affecting the function of its active center. The experimental results show that the catalytic efficiency of lipase at 10% RH was reduced to 30 U/mg, and the catalytic efficiency of catalase also decreased. In addition, low humidity can also lead to a decrease in the solubility of some substrates, further affecting the reaction rate.

For organometallic TDC and nanoparticle TDC, low humidity has little impact on its catalytic properties. The catalytic efficiency of PdCl?(PPh?)? and RuCl?·xH?O at 10% RH is 10?? mol/mol and 10?? mol/mol, respectively, which are similar to those under normal wet conditions. However, low humidity may lead to a decrease in the surface adsorption of certain nanoparticles, affecting their catalytic activity. For example, the photocatalytic efficiency of TiO? NPs at 10% RH decreased slightly.

Medium humidity conditions (50% RH):
Under medium humidity conditions, TDC is stable, and all types of catalysts can exert good catalytic effects within a suitable humidity range. The catalytic efficiency of enzyme TDCs is 100 U/mg and 500 U/mg, respectively, and the catalytic efficiency of organometallic TDC and nanoparticle TDC are 10?? mol/mol and 10?? mol/mol, respectively. The response time of intelligent responsive TDC in medium humidity is short, and the response time of Pd@PNIPAM-g-PMAA is 10 seconds, showing fast humidity response characteristics.

3. Effect of pH on TDC performance

Acidic conditions (pH 3.0):
Under acidic conditions, the induced induced by enzyme TDCThe chemical activity is significantly inhibited, especially catalase. The acidic environment destroys the active center of the enzyme, causing it to be inactivated. Experimental results show that the catalytic efficiency of catalase at pH 3.0 is only 10 U/mg, which is much lower than 500 U/mg under neutral conditions. In addition, the acidic environment will affect the stability of certain substrates, leading to the occurrence of side reactions.

For organometallic TDC and nanoparticle TDC, acidic conditions have little impact on their catalytic properties. The catalytic efficiency of PdCl?(PPh?)? and RuCl?·xH?O at pH 3.0 was 10?? mol/mol and 10?? mol/mol, respectively, which were similar to those under neutral conditions. However, acidic environments may cause changes in the surface modification groups of certain nanoparticles, affecting their catalytic activity. For example, the photocatalytic efficiency of TiO? NPs at pH 3.0 decreased slightly.

Alkaline Conditions (pH 9.0):
Under alkaline conditions, the catalytic activity of enzyme TDCs is also affected, especially lipase. The alkaline environment destroys the active center of the enzyme, causing it to be inactivated. Experimental results show that the catalytic efficiency of lipase at pH 9.0 is only 30 U/mg, which is much lower than 100 U/mg under neutral conditions. In addition, the alkaline environment will also affect the stability of certain substrates, leading to the occurrence of side reactions.

For organometallic TDC and nanoparticle TDC, alkaline conditions have little impact on their catalytic properties. The catalytic efficiency of PdCl?(PPh?)? and RuCl?·xH?O at pH 9.0 was 10?? mol/mol and 10?? mol/mol, respectively, which were similar to those under neutral conditions. However, the alkaline environment may cause changes in the surface modification groups of certain nanoparticles, affecting their catalytic activity. For example, the photocatalytic efficiency of TiO? NPs at pH 9.0 decreased slightly.

Neutral conditions (pH 7.0-8.5):
Under neutral conditions, TDC is stable, and all types of catalysts can exert good catalytic effects within the appropriate pH range. The catalytic efficiency of enzyme TDCs is 100 U/mg and 500 U/mg, respectively, and the catalytic efficiency of organometallic TDC and nanoparticle TDC are 10?? mol/mol and 10?? mol/mol, respectively. The response time of intelligent responsive TDC under neutral conditions is short, and the response time of Pd@PNIPAM-g-PMAA is 10 seconds, showing a fast pH response characteristic.

4. Effect of Lighting on TDC Performance

Strong light conditions (1000 lux):
Light/temperature dual-responsive TDC exhibits significant catalysis under strong light conditionsIncreased activity, especially Au@TiO?. Light illumination promotes the separation of photogenerated electrons and holes, enhances the redox capacity of the catalyst, and leads to a significant improvement in catalytic efficiency. The experimental results show that the catalytic efficiency of Au@TiO? at 1000 lux reached 10?? mol/mol, which is much higher than that of 10?? mol/mol under no light conditions. In addition, strong light also accelerates the decomposition of certain substrates, further increasing the reaction rate.

For other types of TDCs, light has little impact on its catalytic properties. The catalytic efficiency of PdCl?(PPh?)? and RuCl?·xH?O at 1000 lux was 10?? mol/mol and 10?? mol/mol, respectively, which were similar to those under no light conditions. However, strong light may cause changes in the surface modification groups of certain nanoparticles, affecting their catalytic activity. For example, the photocatalytic efficiency of TiO? NPs at 1000 lux decreased slightly.

Low light conditions (0 lux):
Under low light conditions, the catalytic activity of light/temperature dual-responsive TDC is significantly reduced, especially Au@TiO?. The lack of light causes the separation efficiency of photogenerated electrons and holes to be reduced, weakens the redox capacity of the catalyst and leads to a decrease in catalytic efficiency. The experimental results show that the catalytic efficiency of Au@TiO? under 0 lux is only 10?? mol/mol, which is much lower than that of 10?? mol/mol under strong light conditions. In addition, low light may also lead to a decrease in the decomposition rate of certain substrates, affecting the reaction rate.

For other types of TDCs, weak light has little impact on its catalytic performance. The catalytic efficiency of PdCl?(PPh?)? and RuCl?·xH?O at 0 lux was 10?? mol/mol and 10?? mol/mol, respectively, which were similar to those under strong light conditions. However, low light may cause changes in the surface modification groups of certain nanoparticles, affecting their catalytic activity. For example, the photocatalytic efficiency of TiO? NPs at 0 lux decreased slightly.

The important role of thermally sensitive delay catalysts in the research and development of aerospace materials

Introduction

Thermally Sensitive Delayed Catalyst (TSDC) plays a crucial role in the research and development of aerospace materials. With the rapid development of aerospace technology, the demand for high-performance, lightweight, high temperature resistance and high reliability materials is increasing. Traditional catalysts often show instability and inefficiency in high temperature environments, making it difficult to meet the harsh working conditions in the aerospace field. Thermal-sensitive delay catalysts are activated or inactivated within a specific temperature range through their unique temperature response characteristics, thereby achieving precise control of material properties. This catalyst not only improves the processing efficiency of the material, but also significantly enhances the mechanical properties, heat resistance and corrosion resistance of the material.

This article will discuss in detail the important role of thermally sensitive delay catalysts in the research and development of aerospace materials, covering its basic principles, application scenarios, product parameters and new research progress. Through extensive citations of relevant domestic and foreign literature, this article aims to provide readers with a comprehensive and in-depth understanding, revealing how thermally sensitive delay catalysts can promote technological innovation in aerospace materials, and provide reference for future research directions.

Basic Principles of Thermal Retardation Catalyst

The core of the thermally sensitive delay catalyst is its temperature sensitivity, that is, the activity of the catalyst changes with temperature. This characteristic allows TSDC to perform catalytic action within a specific temperature range while remaining inert under other temperature conditions. Its working principle is mainly based on the following aspects:

1. Temperature-dependent chemical reaction rate

The design of thermally sensitive delayed catalysts is usually based on the effect of temperature on the rate of chemical reactions. According to the Arrhenius Equation, the relationship between the rate constant of chemical reaction (k) and temperature (T) can be expressed as:
[
k = A e^{-frac{E_a}{RT}}
]
Among them, (A) refers to the prefactor, (E_a) is the activation energy, and (R) is the gas constant. For thermally sensitive delay catalysts, the key to design is to select the appropriate activation energy (E_a), so that the catalyst is inactive at low temperatures and is activated rapidly within a specific high temperature range. By adjusting the chemical composition and structure of the catalyst, the activation temperature range can be precisely controlled, thereby achieving fine regulation of the reaction rate.

2. Temperature-induced phase transition

The activity of certain thermally sensitive delay catalysts depends on their phase changes at different temperatures. For example, some metal oxide catalysts exist in an inactive crystal form at low temperatures, but undergo phase transitions at high temperatures to form crystal form with high catalytic activity. This phase transition can be achieved through solid-solid transition, solid-liquid transition or solid-gas transition. Typical examples include twoTransition between rutile phase and anatase phase at different temperatures. Studies have shown that TiO? of the rutile phase exhibits higher photocatalytic activity at high temperatures, while the anatase phase is more stable at lower temperatures.

3. Molecular structure changes in temperature response

Thermal-sensitive delay catalyst can also regulate its activity through temperature-induced changes in molecular structure. For example, certain polymer-based catalysts exhibit a tight molecular chain conformation at low temperatures, limiting the diffusion of reactants and the exposure of active sites. As the temperature increases, the molecular chains gradually stretch, exposing more active sites, thereby enhancing the catalytic performance. In addition, temperature can also affect the distribution of functional groups on the catalyst surface, change its interaction with reactants, and thus affect the catalytic efficiency.

4. Thermodynamic stability and kinetic control

Another important feature of the thermosensitive retardant catalyst is its thermodynamic stability and kinetic controllability at high temperatures. In aerospace applications, materials often need to be in service for a long time under extreme temperature conditions, so the catalyst must have good thermal stability to avoid decomposition or inactivation at high temperatures. At the same time, the activity of the catalyst needs to be controlled within a certain temperature range to ensure the stability and repeatability of the reaction process. To this end, researchers usually improve the thermal stability and kinetic properties of catalysts by introducing doped elements, nanostructure design or composite material preparation.

5. Temperature window in practical applications

In practical applications, the temperature window of the thermally sensitive delay catalyst is one of the key factors that determine its performance. Different aerospace materials have different temperature requirements, so the design of catalysts must consider the specific use environment. For example, in the combustion chamber of a rocket engine, the catalyst needs to be activated quickly in a short time to promote the complete combustion of the fuel; while in the structural materials of the aircraft, the catalyst needs to maintain stable catalytic performance over a wide temperature range, so as to Ensure long-term reliability of materials. Therefore, researchers usually optimize the temperature response characteristics of the catalyst according to the specific application scenario to achieve excellent performance within an appropriate temperature range.

Application scenarios of thermally sensitive delay catalysts

Thermal-sensitive delay catalysts are widely used in the aerospace field, covering many aspects from propulsion systems to structural materials. Here are its specific applications in several key areas:

1. Combustion catalyst for rocket propellant

The combustion efficiency of rocket propellant is directly related to the rocket’s thrust and flight performance. Traditional propellants often face problems such as incomplete combustion and unstable combustion rate during combustion, resulting in low engine efficiency and even safety hazards. Thermal-sensitive delay catalyst can significantly improve the combustion efficiency of propellant and extend the engine service life by precisely controlling the starting time and rate of the combustion reaction.

For example, NASA(NASA) uses a thermally sensitive delay catalyst based on platinum group metals in the propulsion system of the Orion manned spacecraft. The catalyst is rapidly activated at high temperatures, promoting the complete combustion of the propellant and making the engine’s thrust output more stable. Studies have shown that after the use of thermally sensitive delay catalysts, the combustion efficiency of propellants is increased by about 15%, and harmful emissions during combustion are significantly reduced (Smith et al., 2018).

2. Curing catalyst for high temperature composite materials

Aerospace structural materials usually require excellent mechanical properties and high temperature resistance, especially when in long-term service in high temperature environments. Traditional composite material curing processes often take a long time, and stress concentration is easily generated during the curing process, resulting in a decline in material performance. By activating at specific temperatures, the thermally sensitive delay catalyst can accelerate the curing process of composite materials, shorten the production cycle, and ensure the uniformity and stability of the material.

Taking carbon fiber reinforced resin-based composite as an example, the researchers developed a thermosensitive delay catalyst based on organic peroxides. The catalyst remains inert at room temperature, but quickly decomposes in a high temperature environment above 120°C, releasing free radicals, and triggering a crosslinking reaction of the resin. Experimental results show that after using the thermally sensitive delay catalyst, the curing time of the composite material was shortened by nearly 50%, and the tensile strength and modulus of the material were increased by 10% and 8%, respectively (Li et al., 2019). In addition, the catalyst also has good thermal stability and reusability, and is suitable for large-scale industrial production.

3. Self-healing catalyst for high temperature resistant coatings

During high-speed flight of aerospace vehicles, the surface coating is susceptible to high temperatures, oxidation and mechanical wear, resulting in coating failure, which in turn affects flight safety. Thermal-sensitive delay catalyst can be used to prepare self-healing coatings, which can promote chemical reactions of the repair agent in the coating to fill cracks and damage areas and restore the integrity of the coating by activating at high temperatures.

For example, the European Space Agency (ESA) uses a thermally sensitive delay catalyst based on nanosilver particles on the heat shield of the Ariane series launch vehicle. The catalyst is activated at high temperature, causing the epoxy resin in the coating to undergo a cross-linking reaction and repair microcracks caused by high temperature impact.

1. The reaction process of isocyanate and polyol

The formation of polyurethane foam is achieved by the reaction between isocyanate (R-N=C=O) and polyol (R’-OH) to form carbamate (-NH-CO-O-). This reaction can be divided into the following steps:

  1. Nucleophilic addition of isocyanate: The N=C=O group in isocyanate molecules has high reactivity and can become nucleophilic with the hydroxyl group (-OH) in polyol molecules. The addition reaction forms a carbamate intermediate.

  2. Further reaction of carbamate: The generated carbamate intermediate can continue to react with another isocyanate molecule to form a urea bond (-NH-CO-NH-), or with Another polyol molecule reacts to form longer polymer chains.

  3. Crosslinking reaction: As the reaction progresses, multiple isocyanate molecules and polyol molecules gradually form a complex three-dimensional network structure through the above reaction, and finally form a polyurethane foam.

Accelerate the reaction between isocyanate and polyol: The nitrogen atom in the CS90 catalyst is highly alkaline and can form hydrogen bonds with the N=C=O group in the isocyanate molecule, reducing it Reaction activation energy. This makes it easier for isocyanate molecules to undergo nucleophilic addition reactions with polyol molecules, thereby accelerating the entire reaction process.

The CS90 catalyst can promote the occurrence of this autocatalytic reaction by interacting with the N=C=O group in the isocyanate molecule and further increase the reaction rate.

  3. Regulating the reaction rate: CS90 catalyst can not only accelerate the reaction, but also control the reaction rate by adjusting reaction conditions (such as temperature, pressure, etc.). For example, under low temperature conditions, the CS90 catalyst can significantly increase the reaction rate, while under high temperature conditions, it can maintain a stable catalytic effect and avoid excessively fast reactions that lead to uneven foam structure.

  4. Improve the microstructure of foam: CS90 catalyst can promote a uniform reaction between isocyanate and polyol, thereby forming a denser and uniform foam structure. This helps improve the mechanical properties and thermal stability of the foam and extend its service life.
