Crystallization Process and Formation Mechanism of Zeolites

Studies on the crystallization process and formation mechanism of zeolites are very important not only because of their theoretical significance but also due to practical 

The proposition of different views on the formation mechanism of zeolites is due to the complexity of the formation of zeolites. The crystallization system of zeolites has solid and liquid components. The solid phase contains amorphous gel and zeolite crystals, while the liquid phase contains silicate ions with various polymeric states, aluminate, and aluminosilicate ions with various structures and polymeric states. The procedure for the synthesis of zeolites is not complicated, but the crystallization mechanism involved is
