destroyed. Compared with Cu/SBAꢀ15 and Cu/KITꢀ6 catalysts
which had average Cu particle sizes of 4.3 nm and 3.5 nm,
respectively, Cu/MCMꢀ41 possessed a relatively larger average
Cu particle size of 6.3 nm. Additionally, different ratio of Cu0
and Cu+ species coꢀexisted in the three copperꢀbased catalysts
after reduction, which were verified to derive from CuO and
copper phyllosilicate, respectively. The catalytic performances
showed that the activity for EC hydrogenation followed the
sequence of Cu/SBAꢀ15 > Cu/KITꢀ6 > Cu/MCMꢀ41. The
synergetic effect of Cu0 and Cu+ species with appropriate ratio
were responsible for the higher catalytic activity of Cu/SBAꢀ15.
It was proposed that Cu0 species dissociated H2, while Cu+
species absorbed the carbonyl group of EC. Furthermore,
among the three copperꢀbased catalysts, Cu/SBAꢀ15 exhibited a
better activity with TON of 22.0 and 11.4 (mol/mol) towards
EG and MeOH, respectively. Under a suitable condition, 100%
of EC conversion, 94.7% of EG yield and 62.3% of MeOH
yield were achieved within a short reaction time of 4 h. This
work provides an inexpensive and efficient copperꢀbased
catalyst for sustainable synthesis of ethylene glycol and
methanol via indirect chemical utilization of CO2.
