Samenvatting

Here we report a versatile method to synthesize hierarchically porous zeolites with FER, CHA and MFI topologies by using inexpensive mono-quaternary ammonium N-cetyl-N-methylpyrrolidinium (C 16NMP) as a mesoporogen. Extensive characterization revealed that the mesoporous zeolites are crystalline, possess a high mesopore volume and exhibit comparable Brønsted acidity to their bulk counterparts. Due to the improved accessibility of the microporous domains, these hierarchical zeolites display enhanced performance as catalysts in various reactions such as the dehydration-isomerization of 1-butanol to iso-butene (FER) and methanol-to-hydrocarbons reaction (CHA and MFI).
