Zeolite A Imidazolate Frameworks
|
|
Faujasite (FAU) and zeoliteA(LTA) are technologically important
porous zeolites (aluminosilicates) because of their extensive
use in petroleum cracking and water softening. Introducing
organic units and transition metals into the backbone of these
types of zeolite allows us to expand their pore structures,
enhance their functionality and access new applications. The
invention of metal-organic frameworks and zeolitic imidazolate
frameworks (ZIFs) has provided materials based on simple
zeolite structures where only one type of cage is present.
