SYNTHESIS AND PROPERTIES OF A NOVEL COMPOSITE ZSM-5 ZEOLITE/VERMICULITE CATALYST

摘要

The composite ZSM—5 zeolite/vermiculite catalyst,in which tiny ZSM—5 zeolite parti-cles embedded in the vermiculite substrate,has been synthesized by hydrothermal method with vermiculite assilicon source.The catalytic behavior of resulting catalyst for xylene isomerization,propylene aromatizationand toluene disproportionation is better than that of HZSM—5 zeolite.
