Abstract
Synthesis of ZSM-5 zeolite from OSDA-free systems has been a very interesting alternative method because it can avoid the usage of organic templates and consequent calcination step. However, in opened reports, organic substance such as alcohol is more or less involved. In the present work, a calcined commercial ZSM-5 zeolite was used as a seed, sodium aluminate as an aluminum source, silica sol as a silicon source, which ensures that there is no any organics (template) in the synthesis system, and polycrystalline ZSM-5 aggregates consisting of rod-like nanocrystals are successfully prepared in a completely OSDA-free system. The effects of seed (chemical component, dosage) and crystallization conditions on the synthesis of ZSM-5 were systematically investigated. The results show that highly crystallinity ZSM-5 aggregate consisting of primary nano-sized crystals with a size of less than 100 nm can be yielded from a gel precursor with 5.6 wt.% seed after hydrothermal treatment for 48 h. The results also shows that the chemical composition of the seeds had little effect on the topological structure and pore structure of the synthesized samples, but the seed with a low Si/Al ratio is more conducive to the rapid crystallization of zeolite and to the improvement of the acid, especially the strong acid centers of the catalyst.
