Synthesis, characterization and catalytic testing of MCM-22 derived catalysts for n-hexane cracking

Abstract Layered zeolites and their delaminated structures are novel materials that enhance the catalytic performance of catalysts by addressing diffusion limitations of the reactant molecules. n-Hexane catalytic cracking was observed over MCM-22 layered zeolite and its derivative structures over th...
