Molecular simulations of zeolites: adsorption, diffusion, and shape selectivity
B Smit, TLM Maesen - Chemical reviews, 2008 - ACS Publications
Zeolites are intriguing materials. The basic building blocks are corner sharing TO4 units,
where the T-atoms usually refer to Si, Al, or in some cases also P. These tetrahedrals can …
