Zeolites belong to a special class of crystalline aluminosilicates. Zeolite synthesis involves crystallization under high pH conditions from a diverse silica gel and an alumina source combined with water. The resulting nanoporous materials, called zeolites, are widely used in industrial applications as adsorbents, catalysts, and ion exchangers.

Zeolite Socony Mobil-5 (ZSM-5) is a high-silica pentasil zeolite developed by Mobil Oil Company in 1972. H-ZSM-5 is the H form, or protonic type, of ZSM-5. In H-ZSM-5, H+ ions occupy the zeolite ion exchange sites. H-ZSM-5 can be synthesized with an infinite number of different Si/Al ratios, the variation of which affects the material’s crystal configuration, porosity, and particle size, and impacts the overall strength and distribution of acid sites.

ACS Material manufactures five types of high-quality H-ZSM-5, each with its own Si/Al ratio and each is available in a 200 g or 1 kg package.
