Synthesis of ZSM-5 Type Zeolites Under Elevated Gravity

Abstract

Synthesis of ZSM-5 with the SiO₂/Al₂O₃ ratio of 100 and silicalite under elevated gravity was carried, out using a centrifuge oven. It was found that the crystallization rates of ZSM-5 and silicalite are enhanced under elevated gravity. It was also found the maximum crystal sizes of ZSM-5 and silicalite synthesized under 100 G are about 2 times larger than those synthesized under 1 G.
