This review addresses the most relevant aspects of vibrational spectroscopies (IR, Raman
and INS) applied to zeolites and zeotype materials. Surface Brønsted and Lewis acidity and …

Understanding the structure–property relationship of solids is of utmost relevance for
efficient chemical processes and technological applications in industries. This contribution …

Surface hydroxyl groups are active centers in many catalytic reactions and can play an
important role during catalyst preparation. In this chapter, the application of infrared …

In this article, we considered all aspects of acidity (nature of acid sites, strength, density, etc.)
in solid catalysts and in zeolites in particular. After reminding the definition of acidity in liquid …

The kinetics and impact of steaming on the acid site concentration of zeolite beta were
studied by 1H, 27Al, and 29Si MAS NMR spectroscopy as well as IR spectroscopy of …

In this work,[Al]-SBA-15 samples were prepared by three different direct synthesis methods
and one postsynthesis procedure, aiming to study the influence of the preparation …

The synthesized nanoscale beta zeolites (SiO 2/Al 2 O 3= 25, nanocrystals of 50 nm) were
treated by two different sequential procedures called acid-steaming and acid-calcination …

The mechanism of the so-called standard SCR reaction on an efficient HBEA zeolite catalyst
modified with 0.25 wt.% Fe (0.25 Fe/HBEA) was elucidated. The studies were systematically …

The extra-large-pore germanosilicates with UTL topology have been synthesized using a
large variety of spiroazocompounds as structure-directing agents. Synthesis conditions were …

Catalytic cracking of high molecular weight hydrocarbons underpins the production of fossil
fuels from petroleum vapour and the recycling of polyolefin waste plastic. However, thermal …
