Preparation and Characterization of Zeolite ZSM-5 in the Template: Effect of Crystallization Time on the Structure and Textural Properties

Abstract:

The preparation of ZSM-5 templates in the absence of organics is an area of high technological impact. These are responsible for the enhancement of the final products (zeolites). Therefore, the preparation of zeolites in the absence of template allows a compromise covering the low cost and environment. This study aimed to investigate the influence of synthesis time in the preparation of ZSM-5. This zeolite was prepared by hydrothermal synthesis, using as co-template (C₂H₅OH) and addition of seeds. The times of synthesis used were 3 to 5 days. The solids were characterized by XRD, BET and Spectroscopy in the infrared region. Through the results obtained with XRD, it was observed that all samples showed characteristic peaks of MFI structure of the group at intervals of 2θ = 7-9° and 23-25°, showing no presence of secondary phases. BET surface area showed a corresponding literature. The infrared showed bands characteristic of ZSM-5.
