Abstract:

Mordenite is a zeolite that has been used as a selective adsorbent and as a catalyst. Mordenite zeolite with crystal diameter 65 nm and crystal length 7 μm was successively synthesized in the absence of organic template by hydrothermal method at 180 °C for 5 days after stirring at high speed and aging in the synthesis mixture with the molar composition of 12Na2O:100SiO2:2Al2O3:500H2O. The produced samples were investigated using XRD, SEM, FT-IR, EDS, DTA/TG and BET surface area. The prepared sample, crystallized in needle shape crystals. Total (BET) surface area was 52.14 m2/g whereas, total pore volume was 0.2 cm3/g. Average pore diameter was 24.16 Å. Thermogravimetry analysis (DTA/TG) showed that, at room temperature to 800 °C, mordenite mass loss is 6%.
