Catalyst for producing alkylene oxide, method for producing the same, and method for producing alkylene oxide using said catalyst
First Claim
1. A catalyst for producing alkylene oxide comprising fine metal silver particles dispersed and supported on a carrier, wherein not less than 90% of said fine metal silver particles have a silver particle diameter of 2 to 100 nm, wherein an average diameter of said fine metal silver particles is 30 to 100 nm, and wherein a water absorption rate of the carrier is 20 to 60%.

Abstract
A catalyst for producing alkylene oxide including fine metal silver particles dispersed and supported on a carrier, wherein not less than 90% of the fine metal silver particles have silver particle diameters of 2 to 100 nm, is disclosed. The catalyst can be produced by impregnating a carrier with a liquid containing a silver compound or a silver ion; drying the carrier; and then irradiating the carrier with microwave to form fine metal silver particles in dispersed state on the carrier. This catalyst is used for producing olefin oxide by contact gas-phase oxidation of olefin by a molecular-oxygen-containing gas.
