Abstract

Crystalline borosilicate molecular sieves have been the object of an intensive investigation effort since they were reported in the open literature at the Fifth International Conference on Zeolites by Taramasso, et al. (1) A wide range of structures containing framework boron have been synthesized. The physical properties of these borosilicate molecular sieves have been studied by such techniques as X-ray diffraction, infrared and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopies, and temperature programmed desorption of ammonia. In addition, the catalytic performance of borosilicate molecular sieves has been reported for such reactions as xylene isomerization, benzene alkylation, butane dehydroisomerization, and methanol conversion. This paper will review currently available information about the synthesis, characterization, and catalytic performance of borosilicate molecular sieves.
