Catalytic Properties of Cobalt Phthalocyanines Chemically Bonded to Polymer Anchored onto Silochrome Surface

    Catalytic systems consisting of cobalt phthalocyanine grafted to maleic anhydride-styrene copolymer chemically linked with γ-aminopropylated silochrome have been prepared. In the process of sulfide oxidation with air oxygen the specific catalytic activity of these systems depends strongly on the phthalocyanine concentration in the catalyst. At low phthalocyanine concentrations (below 0.4 × 10−6 mol g−1) the catalytic activity is more than an order of magnitude larger than that of homogeneous catalysts and cobalt phthalocyanine adsorbed on a silochrome surface. The different ways of preparing the catalysts are reflected in the kinetic characteristics of the oxidation process.
