Synthesis of pure and high crystalline nano-sized ZSM-5 zeolite from local Kaolin

ZSM-5 a MFI type zeolite is a medium pore channel zeolite with three-dimensional channels defined by 10-member rings. The ZSM-5 catalysts are important from industrial and academic point of view because of their unique structure, thermal stability, acidity, shape selective property and applications in oil refinery and environmental catalysis. In this research nano-sized ZSM-5 was synthesized by hydrothermal method using local Kaolin (Zonouz- Azerbaijohn) as alumina source and silicic acid as silica source and Tetrapropylammonium bromid (TPA-Br) as template.
