Effects of Reaction Temperature and Aging Time on LTA Zeolites for Molecular Sieve Purposes Julia King, Chemical Engineering

摘要

For use as the selectively permeable component in a molecular sieve water purification purposes, Linde Type A (LTA) zeolites were synthesized while systematically nt parameters. The product nanoparticles were characterized using scanning electron microscopy and x-ray diffraction spectroscopy. It was found that a longer aging time of the precursor gel solution during synthesis and a lower reaction in smaller particle sizes of the LTA zeolites. It was also found that the aging time has no effect on the composition or parameters will be evaluated.
