A Mesoporous ZSM-5 Zeolite Synthetized by a Novel Double Long-Alkyl-Chain Organosilane Template

Abstract

A ZSM-5 zeolite molecular sieve was prepared by using a new type of double long-alkyl-chain organosilane template. The structure of the acquired zeolite was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and nitrogen adsorption–desorption measurement, which showed a piled circular sponge crystal morphology and contained mesopores around 4 nm in it.
