Amorphous Aluminosilicate Nanosheets as Universal Precursors for the Synthesis of Diverse Zeolite Nanosheets for Polymer-Cracking Reactions.

ABSTRACT: Zeolites catalyze some reactions in their molecular-sized pores, but large molecules can react only on their external surface. Zeolite-nanosheets (NSs) have been developed as catalysts for large molecules. The previously reported methods to synthesize zeolite-NSs are specialized for each zeolite type. Here we propose a new method to synthesize various zeolite-NSs from the same amorphous aluminosilicate NSs (AAS-NSs) as a universal precursor. We successfully synthesized the unprecedented AAS-NSs in the hydrophilic space of the stable hyperswollen lyotropic lamellar (HL) phase. The four zeolite types could be obtained from the single-species AAS-NSs. These results imply that this method enables us to synthesize almost all types of zeolite-NSs. Moreover, the synthesized CHA-NSs have great pot
