High Purity Phosphotungstic Acid Preparation
Heteropoly acid is one of the most active catalysts in acid catalytic reaction and redox reaction. Phosphotungstic acid H 3 PW 12 O 40 •nH 2 O is the most widely used in heteropoly acid. The purity of phosphotungstic acid directly affects the conversion rate of the catalytic system. Therefore, the preparation of high purity phosphotungstic acid is especially important. Some scholars have proposed a purification method for phosphotungstic acid crystals. (1) The crystal of industrial phosphotungstic acid is dissolved in water and the inorganic acid is added to the solution of phosphotungstic acid containing inorganic acid. The concentration of tungsten trioxide is 50-150g/L, and the volume molar concentration of the inorganic acid is 0.5 ~ 6mol/L. (2) In the solution of phosphotungstic acid containing inorganic acids, the oil phase organic alcohol extractant was extracted with the volume concentration of 5-50%, and the volume ratio of the two phase was oil phase = 1:1-10:1, and the organ...
