ZSM-5 Zeolite

   

ZSM-5 Zeolite

  • ZSM-5 is a medium pore (5.1-5.6 Å) zeolite with three dimensional channels defined by 10-membered rings. Due to its unique shape selectivity, solid acidity, ion
    exchangeability, pore size, thermal stability and structural network, ZSM-5 has been widely used as catalyst and adsorbents in petrochemical and fine chemical industry.
  • The catalytic and sorption properties of the zeolite are often influenced by their crystal size. The acidity of ZSM-5 has a significant effect on the reaction path and product distribution.
  • MFI dimensionsWe manufacture ZSM-5 with different SiO2/Al2O3 ranging from 30 to 300. These catalysts are available in the form of powders and extrudates.

Applications:

  1. Alkylation of aromatics
  2. Isomerization of alkanes and aromatics
  3. Disproportionation of Toluene
  4. Cracking of Alkanes
