Abstract

A series of hierarchical mesoporous ZSM-5 zeolites with different morphology were successfully synthesized by the CO2-in-water microemulsion method, and mesoporosity was formed without organotemplate. The different synthesis conditions, including silica alumina molar ratio, stirring time and compressed CO2 pressure, were systematically investigated to discuss the influence of these conditions on the morphology of ZSM-5 zeolite. The resulting samples were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), inductively coupled plasma (ICP) and nitrogen adsorption-desorption measurement. XRD results indicated that compressed CO2 route for the synthesis of MFI zeolites had a fast crystallization rate and good crystallinity. SEM images showed that the ZSM-5 hierarchical mesoporous ZSM-5 zeolite had a uniform chain-like crystal morphology, whereas silicalite-1 displayed a monodisperse crystal morphology. In addition, the nitrogen adsorption-desorption measurement provided sufficient evidence for the presence of hierarchical mesopores in ZSM-5 zeolite.
