Forming pure shaped ZSM-5 zeolite bodies by a steam-assisted method and their application in methanol to aromatic reactions

adsorption, TG, SEM, TEM, ICP and Al MAS-NMR. The results demonstrated that an interesting intra-particle pore structure was formed within the monoliths of the SPHZ catalyst. Moreover, the superior catalytic performance obtained for SPHZ may have also been due to the broad acid strength distribution and the conversion of the silicon aluminum adhesive agent to zeolite crystals.
