A Large 24-Membered-Ring Germanate Zeolite-Type Open-Framework Structure with Three-Dimensional Intersecting Channels

Abstract

Pores for thought: A new extra large germanate zeolite-type structure has been synthesized by using high-charge multiamine as a template in a pseudo-aqueous system (DMF/H₂ O). The novel zeolite-type germanate with low framework density (11.1) has a 24- and 12-membered ring honeycomb array with three-dimensional intersecting channels.
