Standout property of zeolites is their high adsorption capacity. Either natural or synthetic, are porous, crystalline aluminosilicate minerals. Their distinctive three dimensional framework is composed of interconnected tetrahedra, with silicon (Si) and aluminum (Al) atoms at the core, encircled by oxygen atoms. This framework constructs a network of channels and cavities, endowing zeolites with their characteristic porous feature.
In catalysis, zeolites are of great significance. Their precisely defined pore structures can selectively house reactant molecules, promoting specific chemical reactions. For instance, in petroleum refining, zeolite - based catalysts are employed in processes like catalytic cracking, which breaks down heavy hydrocarbons into more valuable lighter products.
Furthermore, zeolites are applied in gas separation. Thanks to their molecular - sieving effect, they can segregate different gases according to molecular size and shape.
