Unraveling the structure of Brønsted/Lewis acid sites using probe molecules and smart control of HZSM-5 zeolite (extra)framework composition
Zeolites found a wide range of applications as catalysts in several industrial processes, the properties of these materials can be easily tuned to offer distinct structural and chemical features, allowing for example acid-base and shape/size selective reactions. These solid acid catalysts appeared as a safer alternative to the harmful and corrosive liquid catalysts used in several industrial processes. Since the overall catalytic properties are extensively dependent on the properties such as the acid site nature (Brønsted or Lewis), location, amount and strength, understanding these properties is mandatory to develop increasingly active and selective acid catalysts. In this proposal, we intend to use INS to gain additional structural insight about the acidic properties of the HZSM-5 zeolite and to assess the location extraframework aluminium (EFAL) species.
