Description
Summary:This paper proposes a method for synthesizing granular ZSM-23 zeolite with a high degree of crystallinity and hierarchical porous structure. This method is based on crystallizing granules composed of powdered ZSM-23 zeolite and a specially prepared amorphous aluminosilicate. It has been shown that these granules have superior mechanical strength compared to granular zeolite-containing materials, which are made from a mixture of ZSM-23 zeolite crystals and Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>. It has been demonstrated that when 0.5% of Pt granular ZSM-23 zeolite is used, with a high degree of crystallinity and a hierarchical porous structure, it exhibits higher activity and selectivity in the hydroisomerization of n-hexadecane compared to a bifunctional catalyst, which is a mechanical mixture of ZSM-23 zeolite crystals and Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>, with the metal deposited on the granules.
