Insights into the Synthesis of Spiral Beta Zeolite with Enhanced Catalytic Performance in VOC Abatement

The rational synthesis of zeolites with designed morphology is a highly challenging task. In this study, we propose 1,5-bis(methylpiperidine)pentylammonium hydroxide (BMPPAOH) as an organic structure-directing agent (OSDA) based on theoretical calculations. The morphology of zeolite samples is chara...

description The rational synthesis of zeolites with designed morphology is a highly challenging task. In this study, we propose 1,5-bis(methylpiperidine)pentylammonium hydroxide (BMPPAOH) as an organic structure-directing agent (OSDA) based on theoretical calculations. The morphology of zeolite samples is characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM, N<sub>2</sub> sorption isotherms, and UV Raman spectroscopy. This simple bis-quaternary ammonium salt favored the formation of spiral morphology in Beta zeolite spheres (S-Beta). The crystallization of zeolite in the presence of BMMPAOH is a two-stage process, where nanoparticles agglomerate into spheres in the early stages followed by the emergence of S-Beta crystals with spiral morphology. The synthesized Pt-S-Beta catalysts show higher catalytic activity in VOC abatement compared with other Pt-Beta samples.
