  • Publication number: 20260109614
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of zeolite technology, and more particularly to a recyclable polymer template agent, a hierarchical gradient pore Beta zeolite, and a green preparation method thereof. By synthesizing a polymer template agent and utilizing the unique temperature sensitivity conferred by the combination of the hydrophilic quaternary amide group and the hydrophobic isopropyl group in the polyquaternary ammonium salt structure of the recyclable polymer template agent provided by the present invention, the zeolite precursor is locked inside the gel at the zeolite synthesis temperature, directing the formation of the zeolite crystal structure; after crystallization is complete, the reaction temperature is lowered to room temperature, the polymer shell opens, and the locked zeolite crystals inside are released via a diffusion mechanism, followed by centrifugation to separate the polymer from the zeolite for removal.

  • Publication number: 20090325790
    Abstract: A metal-substituted mesoporous oxide framework, such as Co-MCM-41, are disclosed which includes more than one ion species with different reduction kinetics. The reducibility correlates strongly with the pore radius of curvature, with the metal ions incorporated in smaller pores more resistant to complete reduction. The metal-ion substituted oxide framework improves catalytic processes by controlling the size of the catalytic particles forming in the pores. The metal-substituted mesoporous oxide framework can be employed in selective hydrogenation of organic chemicals, in ammonia synthesis, and in automotive catalytic exhaust systems.
