Abstract
Partly zeolitized micro-mesoporous aluminosilicates SBA-15/ZSM-5 were synthesized by conversion of dry gel of template-containing SBA-15 in the presence of tetrapropylammonium hydroxide. They have a hexagonally ordered mesostructure and developed surface and mesoporosity for which the concentration and strength of the Bronsted and Lewis acid sites are higher than in AlSi-SBA-15. The formation of Bronsted acid sites of moderate strength in the samples with a low degree of zeolitization is due to the presence of ZSM-5 precursors as well as crystallites in the obtained aluminosilicates.
