Abstract
The natural zeolitic minerals, composed of aluminum and silicon, are a billion-dollar-ayear industry. Nonetheless, there aren't many ways that researchers can alter the size, shape, or reactivity of zeolites' pores, says Kenneth S. Suslick of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. To improve on nature's molecular sieves, many researchers are developing synthetic varieties whose properties they can tailor (SN: 6/23/01, p. 398: http://www.sciencenews.org/20010623/bob18.asp).
