Abstract
Abstract Large pore size zeolites produced with organic cations in the synthesis mixture are synthesized with high silica:alumina ratios by terminating the crystallization when the product is partly crystalline, preferably 30% to 90 % crystalline by X-ray diffraction measurement. The method is particularly useful with zeolite beta to produce a partly crystalline product with higher silica:alumina ratio by direct synthesis.
