▎ 摘 要
A sustainable and efficient catalyst for converting carbohydrates to a renewable platform chemical 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) is the goal in the study of biomass recycling. Reduced graphene oxidesupported tungsten trioxide (WO3/RGO) as an acidic catalyst was synthesized through a one-step hydrothermal method, characterized via TEM, XPS, XRD and Raman spectroscopy and applied to the conversion of fructose to HMF. The WO3/RGO catalyst showed a highly efficient catalytic activity, and the yield of HMF could reach up to 84.2% with complete conversion of fructose. The catalyst could be reused five times with a slight decrease in activity. Further study indicated that WO3/RGO could also catalyze the conversion of cellulose, glucose and sucrose to HMF.
