Machine-learning approach to the design of OSDAs for zeolite beta

Abstract: We report a machine-learning strategy for design of organic structure directing agents (OSDAs) for zeolite beta. We use machine learning to replace a computationally expensive molecular dynamics evaluation of the stabilization energy of the OSDA inside zeolite beta with a neural network prediction. We train the neural network on 4,781 candidate OSDAs, spanning a range of stabilization energies. We find that the stabilization energies predicted by the neural network are highly correlated with the molecular dyna… Show more

“…16,25,26,31 In such situations, the mixing of different OSDAs (i.e., the use of more than one OSDA) 9 and the use of seed crystals 17 can lead to successful crystallization, which may economically outperform the existing preparation protocols. Further, the MD simulation, the most computationally expensive step in our ACO, can be replaced or performed together with simplied geometry optimization, 61 topological analysis of OSDAs, 62 and recently developed machine-learning models, 63 which is promising to accelerate OSDA design.…”

“…Another approach was taken by Deem and co-workers, who addressed the design of organic structure directing agents (OSDAs). 534 Zeolites are all isomorphic structures, and OSDAs are used during the synthesis to favor the formation of the desired isomorph. Finding the right OSDA to synthesize a particular zeolite is seen as one of the bottlenecks.…”

“…[213] Previously, DFT-derived data sets have been used for the derivation of force fields, [231][232][233] however the application of ML to these challenges offers huge benefits, due to the relative ease of training the models, as well as the ability for machine learning models to identify nonlinear trends. A recent highlight of the application of machine learning techniques trained on computational data includes the design of organic SDAs for the synthesis of zeolite beta by Daeyaert et al, [242] determination of the most thermodynamically favorable aluminum distribution in a range of zeolite topologies by Evans et al, [213] and the reliable calculation of anisotropic properties toward the discovery of auxetic zeolite frameworks by Gaillac et al [243] Modeling of these features demonstrates the ability of machine learning to accelerate datadriven predictions that can help inform experiment, cementing their importance in the virtuous circle.…”
