Aluminum-deficient zeolites preparation

The preparation methods of aluminum-deficient zeolites are reviewed. These methods are divided in three categories (a) thermal or hydrothermal dealumination (b) chemical dea-lumination and (c) combination of thermal and chemical dealumination. The preparation of aluminum-deficient Y and mordenite zeolites is discussed. The structure and physico-chemical characteristics of aluminum-deficient zeolites are reviewed. Results obtained with some of the more modern methods of investigation are presented. The structure, stability, sorption properties, infrared spectra, acid strength distribution and catalytic properties of these zeolites are discussed. [Pg.157]

The discovery of the new class of high-silica zeolites "pentasil" during the last decade has attracted considerable interest due to the important applications of these zeolites in catalysis. The best known member of this family of zeolites is ZSM-5, developed in the Mobil laboratories. The unusual properties of pentasil zeolites have rekindled the interest in other high-silica zeolites, prepared by dea-lumination of low-silica zeolites. In this paper we shall review the preparation methods of aluminum-deficient zeolites, and shall discuss the properties of these materials, with emphasis on recent advances in their characterization. [Pg.157]

General Preparation Methods of Aluminum-Deficient Zeolites... [Pg.158]

High-silica, aluminum-deficient zeolites have been prepared by the following methods (Table I) ... [Pg.158]

Aluminum-deficient Y zeolites prepared by partial removal of aluminum with a chelating agent (e.g. EDTA) also show improved thermal and hydrothermal stability compared to the parent zeolite. The optimum stability was found in the range of 25 to 50 percent of framework A1 extraction (8). However, the maximum degree of dealumination is also affected by the SiO /Al O ratio in the parent zeolite a higher ratio appears to allow more advanced dealumination without loss of crystallinity (8,25,45). Above 50 or 60 percent dealumination, significant loss of crystallinity was observed. Calcination of the aluminum-deficient zeolite resulted in a material with a smaller unit cell size and lower ion-exchange capacity compared to the parent zeolite. [Pg.175]

Beyer and Belenykaia (27) have investigated the sorption properties of DAY zeolites prepared from Y zeolite and SiCl vapors. They reported a very low adsorption capacity for water and ammonia, similar to that of the almost aluminum-free silicalite (49). The low adsorption capacity for water is indicative of a hydrophobic zeolite surface. The adsorption isotherms for n-butane, benzene and n-hexane obtained on the aluminum-deficient zeolite have a shape similar to those obtained on NaY zeolite and are characteristic for micropore structures. They show the absence of secondary pores in this DAY zeolite. [Pg.178]

Sorption. The sorption properties of aluminum-deficient mordenite are strongly affected by the dealumination procedure used and by the degree of dealumination. Materials prepared by procedures that do not involve high temperature treatments show a relatively high sorption capacity for water (15,70), due to the presence of silanol groups, which are hydrophilic centers. However, aluminum-deficient mordenite zeolites prepared by methods requiring heat treatment show a lower sorption capacity for water due to fewer silanol groups. This was shown by Chen (71), who studied the sorption properties of aluminum-deficient mordenite prepared by the two-step method. [Pg.189]

Jacobs and Uytterhoeven studied the nature of deep-bed calcined ammonium zeolite Y and aluminum-deficient zeolite Y, the latter prepared by the H4EDTA technique 30). They concluded that the stability of ultrastable faujasite was imparted only by cationic aluminum and that aluminum deficiency in itself did not contribute to stability. Their conclusion regarding aluminum deficiency was made on the basis of H4EDTA-... [Pg.225]

Kerr, Plank, and Rosinski reported the preparation and catalytic properties of aluminum-deficient zeolite Y materials 35). Topchieva and co-workers studied the catalytic properties of cationic forms of aluminum-deficient Y zeolites, the aluminum deficiency being effected by the H4EDTA method 36-40). They found that up to 50% aluminum removal increased both stability and cumene cracking activity maximum activity was observed at the 50% removal level. Increased catalytic cracking activity was observed by Eberly and Kimberlin for mordenites from which about 80% aluminum had been removed (. 1). Weiss et al. removed over 99% of the aluminum from a hydrogen mordenite and found the zeolite retained catalytic activity of the type induced by Bronsted acids 42). Although the initial activity of this material was lower than that of more aluminum-rich mordenites, the aging rate was markedly reduced, and in a relatively short time the aluminum-deficient catalyst was the most active. [Pg.229]

Reaction with chelating agents. Such reactions have been used primarily for partial dealumination of Y zeolites. In 1968, Kerr (8,21) reported the preparation of aluminum-deficient Y zeolites by extraction of aluminum from the framework with EDTA. Using this method, up to about 50 percent of the aluminum atoms was removed from the zeolite in the form of a water soluble chelate, without any appreciable loss in zeolite crystallinity. Later work (22) has shown that about 80 percent of framework aluminum can be removed with EDTA, while the zeolite maintains about 60 to 70 percent of its initial crystallinity. Beaumont and Barthomeuf (23-25) used acetylacetone and several amino-acid-derived chelating agents for the extraction of aluminum from Y zeolites. Dealumination of Y zeolites with tartaric acid has also been reported (26). A mechanism for the removal of framework aluminum by EDTA has been proposed by Kerr (8). It involves the hydrolysis of Si-O-Al bonds, similar to the scheme in Figure 1A, followed by formation of a soluble chelate between cationic, non-framework aluminum and EDTA. [Pg.162]

Combination of thermal and chemical dealumination. This is a two-step method which was applied in the preparation of aluminum-deficient mordenite (4,5) and Y zeolites (28,29). In some instances the two-step treatment was repeated on the same material, in order to obtain a higher degree of dealumination (5,28). [Pg.162]

ALUMINUM DEFICIENT Y ZEOLITES PREPARED BY STEAM/ACID TREATMENT (L8)a... [Pg.164]

Thomas et al. (39,41) recorded the Si-NMR spectrum of an aluminum-deficient Y zeolite prepared by reacting NaY zeolite with SiCl vapors. The spectrum showed a single sharp peak, characteristic of Si(0 Al) groupings, and indicative of an essentially luminum-free faujasite structure. [Pg.171]

Aluminum-deficient Y zeolites prepared by reacting Y zeolites with SiCl vapors at 500°C also showed an enrichment of the surface in aluminum (44). The X-ray data show a shift of diffraction peaks to higher 20 values, consistent with a more silicious framework (27). However, the X-ray pattern also indicates some structural differences between this material and the one prepared by the steam/acid treatment. [Pg.173]

The mid-infrared spectra of aluminum-deficient Y zeolites prepared by the reaction of Y zeolites with SiCl are similar to those prepared by steam/acid treatment (27). As in the... [Pg.179]

A fairly large number of patents has been issued describing the application of aluminum-deficient Y zeolites in different areas of catalysis. Ultrastable Y zeolites have been used in the preparation of catalysts applied in hydrocarbon cracking, e.g. (94,95) hydrocracking, e.g. (96,97) hydrotreating, e.g. (98) and disproportionation, e.g. (99). [Pg.185]

Catalysts containing aluminum-deficient Y zeolites prepared by Al extraction with chelating agents have been used for cracking and hydrocracking hydrocarbons, e.g. (100). [Pg.185]

Correlations between preparation method and properties. A review of the physico-chemical characteristics of aluminum-deficient Y zeolites has shown that certain characteristics are common to all DAY zeolites, regardless of preparation method, while other characteristics are strongly affected by the preparation method used. [Pg.185]

The formation of such bonds during the heat treatment of dealuminated mordenite has also been suggested by Rubinshtein et al. (72-74), in some instances without the intermediate formation of SiOH groups. The hydrophobic nature of the zeolite also increases with progressive dealumination. Chen (71) has shown that aluminum-deficient mordenite zeolites with SiO /Al O ratios over 80 absorb little or no water at low pressure. These highly silicious zeolites are truly hydrophobic and in this respect are similar to highly silicious zeolites prepared by direct synthesis (e.g. ZSM-5) (75). [Pg.189]

Figure 4a is a 11B MAS NMR spectrum of a mordenite sample prepared from an aluminum deficient gel which contained B2O3. The sharpness of the peak indicates a tetrahedral boron location, and the chemical shift agrees with previously reported values for boron in a zeolite framework (8). In contrast, extra- lattice boron in mordenite (vide infra) gives a broad resonance, as shown in Figure 4b. [Pg.381]

The Hb NMR spectrum of this sample contains a single narrow resonance centered at -3.2 ppm, which is characteristic of boron in a tetrahedral coordination environment in the framework structure. The Si nmr spectra of a synthetically prepared siliceous mordenite with the same Si/Al ratio is shown in Figure 8. No CP resonances are present, Which indicates that hydroxyl nest concentration in this material is very low compared to the acid treated sample. These data confirm that hydroxyl nests, generated by the removal of A1 from the zeolite structure, are reactive sites for isomorphous substitution. Aluminum deficient, preformed zeolites which do not contain hydroxyl nests, i.e. synthetically prepared samples, do not undergo isomorphous substitution when treated in a similar fashion. [Pg.384]

We prepared boron substituted mordenite by direct synthesis from gel precursors and by post- synthetic substitution into dealuminated mordenite. Direct substitution is favored in aluminum deficient gels, but exacting crystallization requirements for mordenite formation limit the amount of boron that can be incorporated into the framework structure. Higher substitution levels were achieved using a post-synthetic treatment. Boron substituted zeolite Y could not be prepared by a similar direct synthetic method, but post-synthetic methods were effective at providing low substitution levels. This demonstrates the more general utility of post-synthetic substitution methods. The hexane cracking activity of... [Pg.396]

Materials. Zeolites A, X, Y, and L were from Union Carbide Corporation, and Zeolite Z was a synthetic large port mordenite from Norton Company. Chabasite was a crystallographically very pure natural zeolite from an Hungarian deposit. Zeolite Y is an aluminum-deficient Y zeolite prepared by H4EDTA treatment. The hexammine complex of was from Strem Chemicals. The ruthenium-on-alumina catalyst was from Ventron. [Pg.17]

Zhixiang et al. [107] compared typical characteristics of aliunimun-deficient Y zeolites prepared by steaming followed by add leaching and produced by the reverse sequence of the two steps. The sample obtained by the reverse method showed, in contrast to the other one, aluminum eiuichment on the external surface of the crystals and lower charge and add site density on the intracrystalline and mesopore surface. [Pg.219]
