The substitutions of Ti, Fe and Zr into zeolite Y in the aqueous solutions of (NH4)2TiF6, (NH4)3ZrF7 and (NH4)3FeF6 were systematically Investigated. It was found that Ai atoms in the framework can be replaced by some metallic elements and the extent of substitution depends on the M/A1 ratio of the solution. The maximum allowable M/A1 ratio of the aqueous solution Is related with the radius of the M atom and the stability constant of the MFnm- complex. The substituted zeolite samples with crystallinity greater than 80% were characterized by means of XRD, IR, DTA, TPR and NH3-TPD measurements. The incorporation of Ti, Fe and Zr into the zeolite leads to an increase in the unit cell parameter, a lowering of thermal stability and a red shift of the asymmetric stretching frequency. The extent of these changes is apparently related with the ionic radius of the metallic element and the degree of substitution. The results of various characterization methods show that the het-eroatoms are readily Introduced
