Abstract

A solid acid alkylation catalyst, and a preparation method therefor and a use thereof. The preparation method comprises the following steps: S1, mixing an aluminum source, water, an alkali source, a template agent, a silicon source and a seed crystal to form gel, and carrying out a crystallization reaction to obtain a molecular sieve having an MWW structure, wherein the template agent is composed of a main template agent and an auxiliary template agent in a molar ratio of 0.5-20:1; S2, roasting the molecular sieve having the MWW structure obtained in S1 to remove the template agent, then carrying out ammonium exchange, and roasting again to obtain an H-type molecular sieve; and S3, mixing the H-type molecular sieve obtained in S2 with an inorganic oxide and a nitric acid solution, and performing kneading and shaping to obtain the solid acid alkylation catalyst. By using the method for synergistically assisting crystallization by a seed crystal and two template agents, a molecular sieve having an MWW structure is directly synthesized without using hexamethyleneimine, piperidine and homopiperazine, and the solid acid alkylation catalyst is further obtained.
