Abstract

Well-defined ZSM-5 crystals with tablet habit, uniform size, controllable silica/alumina ratio, and high mesoporosity were prepared using conventional hydrothermal treatment under stirring. The key to obtaining high mesoporosity of the crystals was to stir a synthesis mixture containing a relatively high concentration of alumina.
