Synergism between the Guest Compound and the Host Framework in Zeolite CsNaY after Impregnation with Cesium Hydroxide

Abstract

An increase in the basicity of the zeolite host, which is determined by the oxide guest component, was observed for the first time with a zeolite impregnated with cesium hydroxide (a section of the structure is shown on the right; ○ cations, • guest component). The application of such materials as basic solid-state catalysts could be of interest for the chemical industry.
