Abstract: The present application provides a ZSM-35 molecular sieve and a preparation method thereof. The ZSM-35 molecular sieve is an aggregated ZSM-35 molecular sieve having a hierarchical macro-meso-microporous pore structure. Raw materials for the preparation method do not include an organic template agent and a crystal seed, and the preparation method includes the following steps: preparing a reactant gel where a molar ratio of SiO2, Al2O3, Na2O, K2O, oxygen-containing acid radical and H2O is (20-40):1.0:(1.5-2.0):(4.0-6.5):(1.0-4.0):(600-1200); sequentially performing an aging treatment and a crystallization treatment on the reactant gel, washing and drying a resulting synthetic product. The ZSM-35 molecular sieve provided by the present application may be obtained by synthesizing without using an organic template agent and crystal seed, and because it has a hierarchical pore structure, it is favorable for material diffusion and mass transfer.
