Abstract
Progress in molecular sieve science and technology is reviewed in the fields of synthesis, catalyst characterization, and catalysis. In synthesis, the molecular sieve crystal types and compositions have been greatly expanded from zeolites and pure silica materials to aluminophosphate-based molecular sieves representing more than two dozen crystal structures and many more chemical compositions, with up to six framework metals chosen from 13 elements. These new molecular sieves represent a variety of chemical properties, and they display weak to medium-strong acid catalytic activity.
Advances in crystal characterization have been made in X-ray crystallography and in electron microscopy by the use of reiterative refinements using independently determined parameters. NMR-MAS has grown to be the most effective tool to describe the environment, and possibly the ordering, of framework cations. Far infrared spectroscopy has the potential to provide detailed information characterizing the chemical environment of extra-framework cations and small occluded metal clusters.
Catalysis with silicon-enriched Y zeolites and with aluminophosphate-based molecular sieves provides new technological opportunities in catalytic cracking and in shape-selective catalysis, including conversion of methanol to small alkenes, oligomerization of alkenes, and synthesis of p-xylene.
