Abstract

Steam stability of MCM-22 and its all siliceous analogue, ITQ-1, with MWW structure was investigated in a mixture of water vapor and nitrogen (95 mol% H₂O, 5 mol% N₂) at 10 barg pressure and two different temperatures of 600 °C and 350 °C for a period of 84 days. Further, the effect of calcination temperature and silicon tetrachloride (SiCl₄) treatment on the steam stability of ITQ-1 was studied. Behavior of these zeolites was monitored in 21-day intervals using XRD, SEM, TEM, ²⁹Si solid-state NMR, nitrogen and argon adsorption analyses. It was found that structural defects adversely affected the steam stability of the zeolites but SiCl₄ treatment was effective to enhance the zeolite resistance to water vapor attack. It was observed that long-term steaming can generate holes in the crystals along with some amorphization; however, it also generated highly homogeneous short range order in the crystals.
