Abstract
Zeolites have been widely employed in fields of petroleum refining, fine chemicals and environmental protection, but their syntheses are always performed in the presence of organic templates, which have many drawbacks such as high cost and polluted wastes. In recent years, the seed-directed synthesis of zeolites has been paid much attention due to its low-cost and environmentally friendly features. In this review, the seed-directed synthesis of Al-rich zeolites with homonuclear and heteronuclear features, the seed-directed synthesis of Si-rich zeolites assisted with ethanol and the utility of seed-directed synthesis have been summarized. This review could help zeolite researchers understand the recent progress of seed-directed synthesis.

[PMID: 35558859 PMCID: PMC9092377 DOI: 10.1039/d2ra01334g] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2022] [Accepted: 04/29/2022] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
The synthesis of zeolites with nanosheet morphology has been attracting extensive attention. Despite the steady progress, the direct synthesis of ultrathin nanosheets of FER zeolite with thickness of less than 10 nm is still a great challenge. Herein we report a facile synthesis of FER zeolite nanosheets (named SCM-37) by using octyltrimethylammonium chloride (OTMAC) and 4-dimethylaminopyridine (4-DMAP) as dual organic templates. The effects of synthesis parameters, including initial molar ratio of SiO2/Al2O3, crystallization temperature and time were investigated. It turned out that the crystallization field of SCM-37 was narrow. A two-step crystallization method was utilized to obtain pure and completely crystallized SCM-37 zeolite. SCM-37 was characterized by multiple techniques, including X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), nitrogen physisorption, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), ammonia-temperature programmed desorption (NH3-TPD) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and compared with the conventional FER zeolite (C-FER). The two most significant features of SCM-37 are the ultrathin crystal nanosheet and extremely high external surface area. The thickness of SCM-37 along the a-axis is 4∼7 nm, while that of C-FER is over 20 nm. The external surface area reaches 198 m2 g-1, which is over ten times larger than that of C-FER. The catalytic performances of the FER zeolites were evaluated by the cracking of 1,3,5-triisopropylbenzene (TiPB). Although possessing a lower amount of total acid sites, SCM-37 showed higher conversion of TiPB, as well as selectivity to the deep cracking products. The superior performance of SCM-37 was attributed to the higher external surface area arising from the ultrathin nanosheets.

Abstract
Designing zeolite catalysts with improved mass transport properties is crucial for restrictive networks of either one- or two-dimensional pore topologies. Here, we demonstrate the synthesis of finned ferrierite (FER), a commercial zeolite with two-dimensional pores, where protrusions on crystal surfaces behave as pseudo nanoparticles. Catalytic tests of 1-butene isomerization reveal a 3-fold enhancement of catalyst lifetime and an increase of 12 % selectivity to isobutene for finned samples compared to corresponding seeds. Electron tomography was used to confirm the identical crystallographic registry of fins and seeds. Time-resolved titration of Brønsted acid sites confirmed the improved mass transport properties of finned ferrierite compared to conventional analogues. These findings highlight the advantages of introducing fins through facile and tunable post-synthesis modification to impart material properties that are otherwise unattainable by conventional synthesis methods.

Abstract
As one of the most important porous materials, zeolites with intricate micropores have been widely employed as catalysts for decades due to their large pore volume, high surface area, and good thermal and hydrothermal stabilities. Among them, ferrierite (FER) zeolite with a two-dimensional micropore structure is an excellent heterogeneous catalyst for isomerization, carbonylation, cracking, and so on. In the past years, considering the important industrial application of FER zeolite, great efforts have been made to improve the synthesis of FER zeolite and thus decrease the synthesis cost and enhance catalytic performance. In this review, we briefly summarize the advances in the synthesis of FER zeolite including the development of synthesis routes, the use of organic templates, organotemplate-free synthesis, the strategies of morphology control, and the creation of intra-crystalline mesopores. Furthermore, the synthesis of hetero-atomic FER zeolites such as Fe-FER and Ti-FER has been discussed.
