Abstract

A new one-atomic layer ZrO2/ZSM-5 hybrid catalyst was prepared by using the repeated reactions between Zr(OC2H5)4 and of the OH groups of the external surfaces of ZSM-5, followed by calcination. The one-atomic layer ZrO2 attached on the ZSM-5 surface was characterized by means of X-ray diffraction, X-ray fluorescence and EXAFS. The ZrO2 overlayer is suggested to epitaxially grow on the ZSM-5(001) plane in a [111] direction of tetragonal ZrO2. The one-atomic layer ZrO2/ZSM-5 is a unique catalyst which produces selectively isopentane from CH3OH.
