Design and synthesis of core shells HZSM-5@MCM-41 with variable acidity and mesoporosity for lignin-catalyzed fast pyrolysis to prepare aromatics

In this study, a uniform micro/mesoporous core–shell composite HZSM-@MCM-41 comprising zeolite was successfully prepared by coating mesoporous MCM-41 shells on nanosized ZSM-5 cores using a two-step hydrothermal method.
