UCSB-6 (framework type SBS) and UCSB-10 (SBT), two three-dimensional phosphate-based molecular sieves with supercages accessible through 12-ring (circumscribed by 12 tetrahedral atoms) windows, are structurally similar to the hexagonal cubic polytypes of faujasite or zeolite Y, an industrially relevant catalyst, but cage structures substantially different. Nonetheless, their inherent thermal instability has precluded any catalytic application so far. By using multiple inorganic cation charge...

Abstract An understanding of the CO 2 adsorption mechanisms on small‐pore zeolites is practical importance in development more efficient adsorbents for separation from N or CH 4 . Here we report that isotherms at 25–75 °C cesium‐exchanged phillipsite zeolite with a Si/Al ratio 2.5 (Cs‐PHI‐2.5) are characterized by rectilinear step shape: limited uptake low pressure (P CO2 ) followed highly cooperative critical pressure, above which rapidly approaches capacity (2.0 mmol g −1 ). Structural...

Silicoaluminophosphate (SAPO) molecular sieves are an important class of microporous materials and useful for industrial catalysis separations. They have been synthesized exclusively by the use expensive environmentally unfriendly organic structure-directing agents. Now synthesis SAPO is reported with MER, EDI, GIS, ANA topologies under wholly inorganic conditions. Multinuclear MAS NMR analyses demonstrate presence Si, Al, P atoms in their frameworks. These all unusually high framework...

The structure model of an ABC-6 family zeolite with the 4-layer stacking sequence AABC was first proposed in 1981, but it has remained undiscovered so far. Here, we report synthesis PST-33, which is a small-pore aluminosilicate (Si/Al = 4.1) this framework topology, using 5-azonia-spiro[4.4]nonane ions as organic structure-directing agent via so-called multiple inorganic cation approach, and its solved by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. PST-33 contains two-dimensional 8-membered ring...

Abstract The CO 2 adsorption behavior at 25–75 °C and 0–1.0 bar of various alkali cation‐exchanged forms merlinoite (framework type MER) zeolites with Si/Al=2.3 3.8 is described. isotherms 25 on the Na + , K Rb Cs MER zeolite are characterized by a clear step, pressure which differs notably according to their extraframework cations. Structural analysis shows that former three includes relocation gating cations high site occupancy remarkable concomitant structural breathing. We define this...

We have recently been successful in predicting and synthesizing a series of body-centered cubic zeolites with expanding structural complexity embedded isoreticular structures, termed the RHO family. Here we propose plausible formation pathway for ECR-18, ZSM-25, PST-20, three members this zeolite family, presence tetraethylammonium ions as an organic structure-directing agent, based on 13C MAS NMR, IR, CO2 adsorption results obtained from solid products recovered function time during their...

Potassium merlinoite with a framework Si/Al ratio of 2.9 (K-MER-2.9) is synthesized using K-MER higher 3.8 (K-MER-3.8) as seed crystals. The CO2 adsorption properties K-MER-2.9 are investigated at 25−45 °C and 0−1.0 bar compared four other zeolites different ratios (1.7-4.2) in order to investigate the effect (or extraframework cation content) on mechanism MER-type zeolites. While CO 2 uptake (0.8 mmol g-1) 25 1.0 K-MER-1.7 negligible, due large number gating cations occupying 8-membered...
