Highly siliceous ZSM-5 nanocatalysts can dehydrate methanol to a wide range of hydrocarbons. In this study, the development of hierarchical H-ZSM-5 nanocatalysts (Si/Al=200) were reported for the methanol-toolefins (MTO) reaction. The nanocatalysts were prepared through a hydrothermal technique and treated by NaOH desilication. The parent and desilicated nanocatalysts were characterized using F...

The synthesis of 2-amino-chromene with excellent yields (82%) was achieved by utilizing basic hierarchical zeolites prepared surfactant-templating as catalysts in a multicomponent reaction under solvent-free conditions. use these more than doubles the activity their microporous counterparts. These results highlight superior diffusivity and performance zeolites, which can be attributed to well-d...

A set of hierarchical beta zeolites with variable Si/Al ratios, nanoparticle sizes, textural and acidic properties was prepared using a hydrothermal treatment concentrated alkali metal-free protic acid-containing zeolite gel-precursor. The obtained catalysts were investigated in the Prins cyclization isovaleraldehyde isoprenol yielding commercially valuable tetrahydropyranol (Florol). highest y...

The development of improved zeolite materials for applications in separation and catalysis requires understanding mass transport. Herein, diffusion single molecules is tracked the straight sinusoidal channels industrially relevant ZSM-5 zeolites using a combination single-molecule localization microscopy uniformly oriented thin films. Distinct motion behaviors are observed with same geometry, s...

Informatics approaches play an increasingly important role in the design of new materials. In this work we apply unsupervised statistical learning for identifying four framework-type attractors of zeolite crystals in which several of the zeolite framework types are grouped together. Zeolites belonging to these super-classes manifest important topological, chemical and physical similarities. The...
