Abstract

ZSM-5/KIT-1 composites were synthesized using an ionic liquid as a template. The structures and morphologies of as-obtained products were characterized using an infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffractometer, N2 adsorption/desorption, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The resultant zeolites show a fully crystalline microporous MFI zeolite framework and a three-dimensional network of short worm-like channels. Mesopores and microspores of 4.2 and 0.8 nm in diameter coexist in the zeolite composites. Moreover, the ratio of ZSM-5 and KIT-1 could be simply adjusted by controlling the pre-crystalline time. We believe that the strategy for fabricating ZSM-5/KIT-1 through a simple method could potentially promote the large-scale production of zeolite composites.
