Abstract

Aspects of ion exchange in zeolite are reviewed, with special reference to those properties of zeolites which give rise to characteristic, and sometimes unique, ion-exchange behaviour. As well as discussing basic principles, the thermodynamic and kinetic aspects of the theory of ion exchange are covered, with particular reference to their utility for predicting exchange behaviour in zeolites and especially for developing the use of zeolites as detergent builders. Recent studies on, and trends in, the use of zeolites in detergency are next reviewed, together with general new developments in the field of ion exchange which will help our understanding of zeolite synthesis and chemistry.
