Enhancing the Water Resistance of Mn-MOF-74 by Modification in Low Temperature NH3-SCR
In this study, Mn-MOF-74 was successfully synthesized and further modified via two paths for enhanced water resistance. The structure and morphology of the modified samples were investigated by a series of characterization methods. The results of selective catalytic reduction (SCR) performance tests showed that polyethylene oxide-polypropylene-polyethylene oxide (P123)-modified Mn-MOF-74 exhibited outstanding NO conversion of up to 92.1% in the presence of 5 vol.% water at 250 °C, compared to 52% for Mn-MOF-74 under the same conditions. It was concluded that the water resistance of Mn-MOF-74 was significantly promoted after the introduction of P123 and that the unmodified P123-Mn-MOF-74 was proven to be a potential low-temperature SCR catalyst.
