Well-crystallized CuPC/zeolite Y nano-composite of average particle size less than 80nm (denoted as CuPC/nano-Y) has been successfully synthesized via zeolite synthesis route. The nano-zeolite host was confirmed by the XRD and TEM. The CuPC complexes entrapped in the nano-hosts were characterized by XRD, TEM, FTIR, TG/DTA, ICP and UV-vis. CuPC/Y samples with different particle sizes in micro-scale were also synthesized by adjusting the synthesis conditions. Under the mild situation (60°C, latm), CuPC in nano-Y exhibits the catalytic activity 2.1 times higher than CuPC in normal Y with particle size of 500nm for the liquid phase oxidation of cyclohexane using aqueous H2O2 (30wt.%) as the oxidant.
