Abstract:ZSM-5 zeolites were hydrothermally synthesized in three di®erent seeding pathways under the direction of tetrapropylammonium bromide (TPABr) template. In order to investigate the seeding e®ect in ZSM-5 crystallization process, ZSM-5 crystals and pre-fabricated MFI-type nanoseeds were added into the original self-induction system, respectively. The¯nal ZSM-5 zeolites were systematically investigated based on XRD (X-ray di®raction), SEM (scanning electron micrograph), TEM (transmission electron micrograph), nitr… Show more
“…Figure 4 illustrates the argon adsorption-desorption isotherms of different extruded ZSM-5 sample at 87 K. The argon adsorption-desorption isotherms of ZSM-5 samples are of type IV with distinct hysteresis loop, which is typical for a porous material with mesoporous structure. The nonmicropore volume could be formed by piling up of the particles [32]. All the samples yield prominent peaks in their respective pore-size distributions at approximately 0.52 nm, a value that agrees very well with the dimension of the MFI nanopores.…”

“…The addition of ZSM-5 crystal seeds speeded up the nucleation and growth of ZSM-5. The acceleration could be largely attributed to the external surface areas of the crystal seeds and uniform distribution of the particles within the amorphous gel system [31,32]. The ZSM-5-C sample synthesized in the presence of added NaCl displays as 20 µm spherical aggregate with 3 µm cubic particles on the surface of the sphere.…”

“…Effect of seeding step in ZSM-5 crystallization process was examined by introducing ZSM-5 crystals and pre-fabricated silicalite-1 nanoseeds into the original self-induction system [12]. Adoption of silicalite-1 nanoseeds had much more prominent effect which led to the formation of relatively small particles with promoted catalytic performance in benzene alkylation and xylene isomerization.…”
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
