The gallosilicate type CDS-1 zeolite ([Ga]CDS-1) with CDO topology is prepared from the precursor of galliumcontaining layered material ([Ga]PLS-1) by calcination via dehydrative condensation, and the corresponding [Ga] PLS-1 can be successfully synthesized from the mixture of protonated kanemite (H-kanemite), Ga2O3, tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAOH) as structure-directing agent (SDA), NaOH and H2O. These materials have been characterized by powder XRD, TG-DTA, FE-SEM, nitrogen adsorption and solid state NMR, and their solid acid properties were evaluated by NH3-TPD analysis after protonation. The obtained proton type [Ga]CDS-1 zeolite can be applied for catalytic cracking reactions (1-hexene and ethylbenzene) and methanol-to-olefin (MTO) reaction as a novel solid acid catalyst.
