Sonicated-Assisted Acid Treatment of Mordenite Using Acetic Acid

Article Preview

Abstract:

Acid treatment of mordenite was conducted using acetic acid to increase the Si/Al ratio. The acid treatment of mordenite by acetic acid was performed using sonication. The various time of treatments was used to investigate the effect of sonication in acid treatment of mordenite. Mordenite and all samples after treatment were characterized by ICP, FT-IR, XRD, and ammonia adsorption to measure their acidity. The Si/Al ratio of mordenite was increased from 11.33 to 17.31, 19.47, and 20.58 respectively for 3, 6, and 9 h of sonication. This result was supported by the T‒O bond vibration of samples which shift to higher wavenumber. The increase of the Si/Al ratio was followed by the decrease of acidity. The XRD test result revealed partial loss of mordenite framework after acid treatment. The results indicated that the sonication method can be used for acid treatment of mordenite.
