Energetic behavior of the pure silica ITQ-12 (ITW) zeolite under high pressure water intrusion.

Experimental water intrusion-extrusion isotherms were obtained at room temperature on pure silica ITW-type zeolites (ITQ-12 zeosil). The water intrusion is obtained by applying a high hydraulic pressure corresponding to the intrusion step. When the pressure is released, the water extrusion occurs at a similar pressure to that of the intrusion one.
