Differences in Al distribution and acidic properties between RTH-type zeolites synthesized with OSDAs and without OSDAs.
In addition to the original preparation route of the RTH-type zeolites using 1,2,2,6,6-pentamethylpiperidine (PMP) as an organic structure directing agent (OSDA), we have found that simpler organic amines such as N-methylpiperidine and pyridine can be used as alternative OSDAs in place of PMP. Furthermore, we have established a synthesis method for preparing the RTH-type zeolites without using any OSDAs. In this study, RTH-type aluminosilicates were synthesized with different types of OSDA or without using any OSDAs. The obtained zeolites synthesized with different preparation methods were characterized by using various techniques, especially high-resolution (27)Al MAS NMR and in situ FT-IR techniques using CO adsorption. The relationship between the preparation method and the catalytic performance in the methanol to olefins (MTO) reaction was discussed. Finally, the distribution of Al species in the RTH-framework was clarified.
