5. Zeolite Y is structurally derived from sodalite units which are joined through double 6 rings, and this arrangement yields the formation of "Supercages" with diameters of 13Å, and pore opening of 8A. Like wise zeolite A is formed by sodalite units, that are joined through double 4 rings, while this arrangement gives rise to the formation of “α” with 4Å openings and 10Å. See Figure 1 for a description of the sodalite structure and for a complete introduction to zeolites see: Breck, D. W., Zeolit Molecular Sives, (John Wiley & Sons, New York, 1974).

6. This composition has previously been reported, JCPDS card #24,1439. The ZnSe boralite and all the mixed systems are reported for the first time.

7. Note that ZnB₂O₄, JCPDS card #9,107, could not be reproduced by solid state reaction. The stoichiometry to produce ZnB₂O₄ gave a mixture of ZnO and ZnB₄O₇ at 600°C as judged by X-ray powder diffraction.
