Product Detail

ACS Material is excited to offer our customers a new class of shape-selective catalysts distinguished by unique channel structures. ZSM-5 is the trade name for zeolite socony mobil-5, a pentasil aluminosilicate zeolite. Each pentasil unit is made up of eight 5-membered rings, and individual pentasil units are connected to each other by oxygen bridges to form regular corrugated sheets with 10-ring holes. The channel structure and acidity of ZSM-5 lend themselves to a number of industrial uses such as acid-catalyzed reactions and as a support material for catalysis.

Key features

  • Shape-selective MFI framework. Pentasil units linked by oxygen bridges form corrugated sheets with 10-ring holes; pore size ~5 Å.
  • Wide SiO2/Al2O3 choice. 5 laboratory grades and 17 industrial grades, including 5 industrial grades marked (Discontinued), from 18–25 (P-20n) to > 1500 (P-1500s / P-1500p).
  • H+ and Na+ forms. Laboratory grade P-38 is offered in both the H+ form and the Na+ form (P-38-Na).
  • High surface area. BET surface area > 380 m²/g for P-38, P-38-Na, P-117 and P-360; > 350 m²/g for all industrial grades.
  • Low sodium, high crystallinity. Industrial grades: Na2O < 0.1 wt% and relative crystallinity > 90%.
  • Ready-to-use laboratory grades. Calcined on delivery; reactivate at 550 °C in air when needed.
