In order to improve the sensing properties of tin dioxide gas sensor, four kinds of different SiO₂/Al₂O₃ ratio, different particle size of MFI type zeolites (ZSM-5) were coated on the SnO₂ to prepared zeolite modified gas sensors, and the gas sensing properties were tested. The measurement results showed that the response values of ZSM-5 zeolite (SiO₂/Al₂O₃ = 70, grain size 300 nm) coated SnO₂ ...

ZnO modified ZSM-5 and Y zeolites are synthesized by performing atomic layer deposition (ALD) of ZnO to HZSM-5 and HY using diethyl zinc and water as the precursors. The surface area and pore volume of ZSM-5 and Y zeolites are progressively reduced with the increasing number of ZnO ALD cycles. XRD and SEM characterization methods show that highly dispersed ZnO species are deposited on the inter...

As stock of crude oil is limited, new resources for fuel and petrochemicals are required to be developed. Natural gas or biogas can be easily converted into methanol which can be converted into gasoline and olefins. This study uses zeolite catalyst (ZSM-5) and its modification by Ni to convert methanol to hydrocarbons (MTH). Catalysts are studied at different temperatures and at different loadi...

a novel modified ni-zsm-5 nanozeolite was fabricated via an organic template-free hydrothermal route. the average particle size of ni-zsm-5 nanozeolite was calculated to be 85 nm by scanning electronic microscopy. then, carbon paste electrode (cpe) was modified by ni-zsm-5 nanozeolite and ni2+ ions were then incorporated to the nanozeolite matrix. electrochemical behavior of this electrode was ...

The structure and reactivity of a room temperature stable zinc carbonyl complex in Zn-modified H-ZSM-5 zeolite were revealed by solid-state NMR spectroscopy.

Microporous H-ZSM-5 containing one Brønsted acid site per asymmetric unit is deliberately chosen to host pyridine, methanol, and ammonia as guest molecules. By using new-generation in situ synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction combined with Rietveld refinement, the slight but significant alteration in scattering parameters of framework atoms modified by the guest molecules enables the user to el...

γ-Valerolactone (GVL) is one of the useful biomass compounds produced via different reaction pathways from hemicellulose. In this study, Co- and Pt-doped/ZSM-5 catalysts with Co loadings (0–10 wt.%) Pt (0.5–2 were prepared by impregnation method employed in a one-pot conversion furfural to GVL. The yield GVL increased increasing temperature 100 140 °C. At 120 °C, higher amounts secondary produc...

Fe2O3/ZSM-5 modified with Ce via citrate route (sol-gel approach) is applied for H2S removal in 500–700 ◦C temperature range. The sulfidation activity of Fe2O3/ZSM-5 is appreciably promoted by introduction of Ce plausibly attributed to the synergy of Fe2O3 and CeO2. 5Fe5Ce/ZSM-5 performs the optimal desulfurization behavior at 600 ◦C with sulfur capacity of 1020 μmol S/g, and the sulfidation pr...

The interactions of water with H-ZSM-5, Cu-ZSM-5, and Co-ZSM-5 have been investigated by density functional theory (DFT). Calculations were also performed to determine the thermodynamics of metal removal from the zeolite. For all three forms of ZSM-5, water adsorbs by direct interaction of the O atom with the cation and hydrogen bonding of one of the two H atoms with an oxygen atom in the zeoli...

To improve the yield of propylene in fluidized catalytic cracking, a series different Au/ZSM-5-TOS catalysts were prepared by modifying ZSM-5, using an external surface modification method and Au nanoparticles. The modified catalyst maintained MFI structure whereas pore-opening size zeolite relatively decreased, without affecting its internal structure. acidity especially Brønsted acidity, redu...
