  • Patent number: 12083508
    Abstract: A supported transition metal carbide catalyst and a one-step synthesis method thereof are disclosed. The synthesis method includes: mixing a supporter, a transition metal precursor and a solid carbon source and then grinding to form a solid mixture; and putting the solid mixture into a reducing atmosphere, performing carbonization treatment and high-temperature programming thermal treatment in turn, and then at a protective atmosphere, cooling and passivating, so as to obtain the supported transition metal carbide catalyst. The synthesis method provided by the present application utilizes high-temperature solid solution reaction for further synthesis, which at least has the following advantages: the preparation process flow is simple so processes such as impregnation and carburization with gas carbon source can be avoided; different supporters used for catalyst modification, and the prepared catalyst has the characteristics of large outer surface area, rich notable metal-like catalytic property and the like.
