Extract

Zeolite Beta, synthesized in 1967 (1), is the first example of a large pore, high silica zeolite (SiO2O3 > 20) prepared in the presence of an organic template (Tetraethylammonium Hydroxide). Zeolite NU-2, whose synthesis has been reported in 1982 (2) seems to be related to the zeolite Beta. Although Zeolite Beta has been claimed as useful catalyst in hydrocracking (3), cracking (4), dewaxing (5), hydrotreating (6), shale oil (7) and Fisher-Tropsh products (B) conversions and as a selective adsorbent in the separation of alkylaromatics (9); this zeolite has not been extensively characterized in the open literature.
