Abstract
AbstractMicroporous structure in zeolite leads to diffusion limitation, which causes coke formation and is harmful to catalytic reactions. Hierarchical zeolite containing primary microporosity and secondary porosity at the meso- and macroscales has received much attention due to its enhanced mass transport. Hierarchical Y zeolites were obtained by treating NH4-Y zeolite with high-temperature calcining and acid-base leaching. The results demonstrated that the calcined zeolite showed great crystallinity after acid-base leaching. The mechanism of introduction of mesopores was demonstrated in detail. The calcination transformed framework Al to extra-framework Al and enlarged the defect by acid and alkali. The mesopores increased with the calcining temperature and holding time. The relationship between the heating rate and the removal of Al species was non-linear; a heating rate of 100°C/h exhibited good protection for the zeolite structure.
