“…In the study of zeolite growth modifiers, Lupulescu and Rimer first reported in 2012 the use of ZGMs, such as functional organic molecules found in silica proteins, termed silicateins or silaffins, to alter the anisotropic rate of step growth on the surface of crystals, thereby regulating the morphology of the synthesized silicalite‐1 zeolite . Zeolite growth modifiers can be added to the crystallization medium in small amounts without significantly altering the growth environment, while they can be designed to have specific binding to a particular crystal surfaces to enhance exposure of the desired crystallographic faces . Various zeolite growth modifiers, including alcohols, amines, organophosphine oxides, crown compounds, cationic polymers, and peptoids have achieved a high degree of control over zeolite crystal morphology for silicalite‐1, ZSM‐5, zeolite L, SSZ‐13, and ZSM‐22 beyond what is attainable in the absence of ZGMs.…”
