Abstract
AbstractHigh‐silica zeolite Y (FAU) plays a vital role in (petro)chemical industries. However, the slow nucleation and growth kinetics of the high‐silica FAU framework limit its direct synthesis and the improvement of framework SiO2/Al2O3 ratio (SAR). Here, a facile strategy is developed to realize the fast crystallization of high‐silica zeolite Y, which involves the combination of high crystallization temperature, ultra‐stable Y (USY) seeds and efficient organic‐structure directing agent (OSDA). The synthesis can be finished in 5–16 h at 160 °C and with tunable SAR up to 18.2, and the key factors affecting crystallization kinetics and phase purity are elucidated. Moreover, the crystallization process was monitored to reveal the fast crystal growth mechanism. The high‐silica products possess high (hydro)thermal stability and abundant strong acid sites, which endow them excellent catalytic cracking performance, obviously superior to commercial USY.
