Abstract

By using NaY zeolites as desiccant materials, commercial NaY zeolite was alkali treated with 1M NaOH aqueous solution and then Mg2+ ion-exchanged by 0.5M Mg(NO3)2 aqueous solution. Alkali treatment (AT) of NaY zeolite removed silicon atoms selectivity from the framework of Y-type zeolite and enhanced water diffusivity of Y-type zeolite. On the other hand, Mg2+ ion-exchange of NaY zeolite increased the amount of water adsorbed. Prepared Y-AT-Mg zeolite had both water adsorption velocity and a large difference of water adsorbed amount between adsorption at 30°C and desorption at 100°C.
