Abstract:Zeolites are crystalline aluminosilicates with well-defined microporous structures that have found several applications in catalysis. In recent years, great effort has been devoted to defining strategies aimed at tuning structural and acidity properties to improve the catalytic performance of zeolites. Depending on the zeolitic structure, the acid sites located inside the crystals catalyze reactions by exploiting the internal channel shape-selectivity. In contrast, strong acid sites located on the external sur… Show more
