Framework Structure of a Synthetic High Silica Zeolite --ZSM-39 from a C_2H_4(OH)_2-H_2O Mixed Solvent System

The structural analogy of clathrate synthesized with natural zeolite framework is well known. HPF_6·6H_2O and (CH_3)_4 (OH)·5H_2O are isostructural with sodalite,melanophlogite is isostructural with the 12 cubic gas hydrate and zeolite ZSM-39 with the 17 gas hydrate. The synthesis of ZSM-39 was first reported by Brace in 1981.Schleker and Meier also obtained the crystals of ZSM-39 with size<10μm and analyzed its crystal stucture by the powder X-ray diffraction.In 1984,Gies solved the crystal structure of dodecasil 3C(ZSM-39) synthesized from an aqueous system in space group F_(ds).In the present paper,we report the framework structure of the high silica zeolite—ZSM-39 obtained from the ethylene glycol-water mixed solvent system.
