Summary: Hierarchically structured zeolites can enhance mass transport and alleviate diffusion limitations in micropores. Macropores with diameters over 50 nm have intrinsic advantages over mesopores for catalytic applications, and methods for preparing zeolites with additional macropores have been developed recently.

Summary: In this paper, a carbon-coated zeolite prepared by high temperature calcination using glucose as carbon source was used as a composite support for ultrafine Ru nanoparticles, which showed outstanding catalytic activity in the hydrolysis of ammonia borane (AB). The catalyst exhibited a turnover frequency of 892 min(-1) at room temperature, outperforming many previously reported catalysts. The excellent catalytic activity was attributed to the carbon layer effectively limiting Ru nanoparticle aggregation and the role of zeolite in pre-activating water. The study of catalyst concentration, AB concentration, and NaOH concentration further investigated the hydrolysis rate of AB.

Summary: TS-1 is a typical microporous zeolite that may hinder the diffusion of reaction products and cause secondary side reactions. However, by creating hierarchical pores of micropores and mesoporous/macropores, the performance of TS-1 in heterogeneous catalytic reactions can be greatly improved.

Summary: Hierarchically porous zeolites are a type of catalyst with improved catalytic performances compared to conventional microporous-only zeolites, due to enhanced mass transportation among meso/macropores. The strategy of controlling growth/crystallization in a solidified hydrogel system allows for the synthesis of TS-1 zeolites with hierarchical porosity, single-crystalline structure, and high catalytic performance in alkene oxidations. This method offers a cost-effective alternative to traditional synthetic methods.

Summary: In this study, TS-1 zeolites were prepared using different synthetic methods, and it was found that the synthetic approach can control the crystallinity and distribution of Ti-Lewis acid sites in TS-1 zeolite. The structure-activity relationship of TS-1 zeolite was established, revealing that the concentration of Ti-Lewis acid sites determines the conversion rate of the reaction, while both the crystallinity and distribution of Ti-Lewis acid sites significantly influence the selectivity to the target product.

Summary: The synthesis of Silicalite-1 nanocrystals and zeolite beta microcrystals, as well as their composites, involved depositing Silicalite-1 nanocrystals on zeolite beta crystals with subsequent hydrothermal treatment. Characterization of the materials showed that coating zeolite beta with an inert Silicalite-1 shell resulted in decreased microporosity and total acidity, as well as the disappearance of strong acid sites.
