Morphology-Controlled Synthesis of ZSM-5/MCM-41 Composite Zeolite

Abstract:

ZSM-5/MCM-41 composite zeolites were synthesized by a two-step hydrothermal crystallization procedure using binary templates of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and tetrapropylammonium hydroxide (TPAOH). The effects of aluminum content on zeolite particle morphology and structure were studied. Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) results showed that the composite zeolites are of both MCM-41 structure and zeolitic MFI structure. SEM results showed that the morphology of composite zeolites is significantly influenced by the aluminum content.
