Hydrothermal Synthesis of Cerium Aluminophosphate.-Molecular sieves CeAlPO-11 of composition Ce 0.04 Al 0.97 P 1.01 O 4.04 are prepared hydrothermally at 170 • C from Al(OH) 3 , H 3 PO 4 , and hydrated Ce 2 O 3 using (iPrO) 2 NH as organic template. The structure is similar to that of AlPO-11 zeolites. Incorporation of Ce 3+ into the aluminum phosphate matrix leads to an increase of the BET surface area from 104.8 m 2 /g for AlPO-11 to 188.4 m 2 /g. -(ARAUJO, A. S.; DINIZ, J. C.; SILVA, A. O.
