Abstract

Molecular sieves of titanium silicate represent a new class of molecular sieves that may broaden application of these materials in the fields of adsorption and catalysis. The two new microporous solids, called ETS-4 and ETS-10, have uniform pore sizes similar to those of the more familiar aluminosilicate zeolites. The new molecular sieves were developed jointly by David T. Hayhurst, a professor of chemical engineering at Cleveland State University, and Steven M. Kuznicki, a senior chemist in the catalyst R&D department at Engelhard Corp., Iselin, N.J., and lead scientist of an Engelhard program aimed at developing new types of molecular sieves for industry. Synthesis of the materials was described for the Division of Petroleum Chemistry at the recent 4th Chemical Congress of North America, held in New York City. According to Hayhurst, it has been hypothesized that about 1000 aluminosilicate frameworks are theoretically possible. Only about 150 have been identified so far, and the rate of ...
