Zeolites are crystalline aluminosilicates containing pores and cavities of molecular
dimensions. Many occur as natural minerals, but it is the synthetic varieties which are among …

An account is presented of the mechanistic aspects of hydrothermal zeolite synthesis. The
introduction provides a historical and experimental perspective and is followed by a …

As important industrial materials, microporous zeolites are necessarily synthesized in the
presence of solvents such as in hydrothermal, solvothermal, and ionothermal routes. We …

This review focuses on recent fundamental insights about methane dehydroaromatization
(MDA) to benzene over ZSM-5-supported transition metal oxide-based catalysts (MOx/ZSM …

Catalytic dehydrogenation of ethane (EDH) is promising for the utilization of shale gas to
produce ethylene, but the current processes mostly exhibit space-time productivity of …

The molecular aspect of the Raman vibrational selection rules allows for the molecular
structural and reactivity determinations of metal oxide catalytic active sites in all types of …

The role of tetrapropylammonium (TPA) ions as a structure-directing agent in the synthesis
of pure-silica ZSM-5 (Si-ZSM-5) is investigated by solid-state NMR. It has previously been …

In real-world application, Cu/SSZ-13 simultaneously suffers severe deactivation from
hydrothermal aging and SO2 poisoning during the periodic regeneration of diesel …

A series of aluminosilicate zeolites are characterized by UV Raman spectroscopy for the first
time, and UV Raman spectra of various zeolites give strong and clear bands with high …

Copper-exchanged, small-pore chabazite (CHA) zeolites were commercialized in 2009 for
the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO x compounds with ammonia, as an emissions …
