Size-dependent properties of nanocrystalline silicalite synthesized with systematically varied crystal sizes

Silicalite-1 powders with crystal sizes ranging from 20 to 1000 nm were synthesized by systematically varying synthesis gel composition, pressure, temperature, and time duration. These samples were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, nitrogen adsorption isotherms, solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance, and toluene adsorption. The effect of crystal size on the physical properties of crystals is observed, including a large increase of both total and external surface area when crystal size decreases. The relationship between particle size and external surface area was modeled by assuming a cubic crystal geometry. The nanosized silicalite samples with crystal sizes less than 100 nm have a higher adsorption capacity for toluene, showing promising potential for its application in volatile organic compound removal.

Guest-host encapsulation of microporous zeolites in ordered mesoporous materials by molecular simulations

The present work provides the first study of ordered mesoporous materials SBA-15 coated with microporous zeolites ZSM-5 using molecular simulations. Several model structures with characteristics such as periodic arrangement of mesopores, randomly arranged micropores, surface hydroxyls and bulk deformations of SBA-15 were used. Cartesian coordinates of ZSM-5 unit lattice were obtained from the literature and the 100 face of H-ZSM-5 unit cell was then placed on the surface of SBA-15 and the entire structure was equilibrated to obtain final configuration. The resulting structure was characterized using simulated small angle and wide angle X-ray diffraction, Connolly surface area (to compare BET area), accessible pore volume for nitrogen molecules (to compare with t-plot volume of micro and mesopores) and methane adsorption at 303 K. The orientation of ZSM-5 on the SBA-15 had no effect on the surface area, pore volume or adsorption capacity. In order to find out if the addition of microporous ZSM-5 should increase the total methane adsorption capacity due to addition of micropores, we studied adsorption on bare and coated SBA-15. However, total adsorption capacity was found to decrease, while the number of methane molecules adsorbed per unit cell of the SBA-15 structure increased. An existing experimental method (J. Am. Chem. Soc., 2004, 126, 14324) of the synthesizing hybrid ZSM-5/SBA-15 structure was studied using accessible micropore volume (by t-plot). It was found that the procedure made all the micropores inaccessible. A modification of the method or use of other host materials is suggested to use the benefits of narrow micropore distribution in ZSM-5.

Preparation and characterization of nanosized ZSM-5 zeolite using kaolin and investigation of kaolin content, crystallization time and temperature changes on the size and crystallinity of products

Nano sized ZSM-5 zeolite samples were synthesized successively from kaolin clay as alumina source having a large amount of quartz (39%) and silicic acid as silica source by hydrothermal treatment with NaOH in the presence of tetrapropylammonium hydroxide as a template. Then the effect of kaolin content, crystallization temperature and time on the size and crystallinity of the products were investigated. The prepared samples were characterized using XRD, SEM, EDS and FT-IR techniques. The results showed that the synthesized ZSM-5 zeolite samples were almost pure and their crystallization was almost complete. The average particle size, as determined by Debye-Scherrer equation, was in the range of 20-42 nm. Increasing kaolin content on crystal size was more effective than increase in crystallization temperature and time. Additional evidences for the nano sized ZSM-5 zeolite were the asymmetric stretch vibration band at 1225 cm^-1 in the FT-IR spectra and TEM images. The scanning electron micrographs of the synthesized zeolites showed that they are spherical shape crystals.

Toluene Alkylation to Selective Formation of p-Xylene over Co-Crystalline ZSM-12/ZSM-5 Catalyst

The alkylation of toluene with methanol to selective formation of p-xylene has been systematically studied. ZSM-12 (MTW)/ZSM-5 co-crystalline zeolite in 40:60 proportions have been synthesized by the same molar gel composition, but at different temperatures and periods than that of ZSM-12 and ZSM-5, separately. All the prepared samples are characterized by XRD, SEM, BET, and XRF. The activity of toluene alkylation was investigated with a mixture of toluene and methanol as a feed over the ZSM-12, ZSM-12/ZSM-5 co-crystalline, ZSM-5, and physical mixture of ZSM-12/ZSM-5. Prom characterization, it is observed that the ZSM-12/ZSM-5 co-crystalline material is different from that of ZSM-12, ZSM-5, and their physical mixture. Further, the ZSM-12/ZSM-5 co-crystalline zeolite produces the highest content of xylene and has better selectivity for p-xylene than ZSM-12, ZSM-5, and their physical mixture.

Structural and diffusion characterizations of steam-stable mesostructured zeolitic UL-ZSM-5 materials

A series of mesoporous UL-ZSM-5 materials (Si/Al = 50) with different micro- and mesoporosity as well as crystallinity was prepared following the procedure proposed in one of our recent studies (Trong-On, D.; Kaliaguine, S. Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2001, 40, 3248-3251. Trong-On, D.; Kaliaguine, S. U.S. Patent 6,669,924, B1, 2003). These materials have zeolitic structure in the form of nanoparticles intergrown in the walls of the amorphous wormhole-like aluminosilicate mesopores of Al-Meso-50, which was used as a precursor in the synthesis. The structure, crystallinity, and textural properties of the synthesized materials, as well as a reference ZSM-5 zeolite sample, were determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM)/scanning electron microscoy (SEM) analyses, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), 27Al magic angle spinning (MAS) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and nitrogen adsorption/desorption techniques. The acid properties were examined by FTIR of adsorbed pyridine. UL-ZSM-5 materials were shown to be highly hydrothermally stable. The diffusion of two C7 hydrocarbons, i.e., n-heptane and toluene, in four UL-ZSM-5 materials with different microporosities, related acidities, and crystallinities were investigated using the zero-length column (ZLC) method. Furthermore, the wormhole-like mesostructured aluminosilicate precursor (Al-Meso-50) and a reference MFI zeolite sample were also investigated using the same technique. A theoretical model considering a combination of mesopore diffusion (with surface slip in the main channels) with an activated, mainly surface diffusion mechanism in the intrawall biporous structure, was proposed and employed to interpret the experimental ZLC results. A classical Knudsen type of diffusion was replaced by an activated surface slip type of diffusion mechanism in the mesopores. The transport of n-heptane in UL-ZSM-5 materials was found to be mainly controlled by mesopore diffusion in the main-channel structure, while that of toluene was dominated by the intrawall diffusion process. Diffusion activation energies of n-heptane are about 2 times higher in comparison to toluene, which has a larger kinetic diameter. The main mesopore channel structure seems to appreciably contribute to the overall mass transport. Furthermore, the effect of hydrothermal treatment (20% steam at 800 degrees C for 24 h) on the diffusion of these two sorbates on UL-ZSM-5 materials was also evaluated.     

Effect of synthesis conditions on preparation of mesoporous titania-silica by a modified sol-gel technique using a cationic surfactant

Titania-silica mesoporous materials have been synthesized by a modified sol-gel technique using a cationic surfactant. The synthesis process was studied using statistical design of experiments to achieve the best conditions for titania-silica preparation. The synthesized materials were characterized by XRD, FT-IR, SEM and surface area measurements. The XRD and SEM results showed an amorphous structure of titania-silica. The surface area measurements using nitrogen adsorption showed type-IV isotherms which indicate the formation of mesoporous structure. A high surface area can be obtained (685 m²/g). The crystal size of titania-silica calculated using Scherrer’s equation was found to be in the range 8–15 nm.
