Outline of Final Research Achievements

Cage-type zeolites are crystalline, microporous aluminosilicates which have been expected to use in the field of catalysts, adsorbents, ion-exchangers and so on. Conventional synthesis of cage-type zeolites often require the use of bulky, complex, and/or costly organic additive, such as organic templates. Organic templates have a role in the structure direction of target zeolite, however the use of organic template makes the production process complex and high cost. In the present study, authors are intended to synthesize the various zeolites including cage-type zeolites under organic template-free condition by implementing the seed-assisted synthesis, and discuss the characteristic property of obtained zeolites.
