Separation of C hydrocarbons, C H , C H , and C H , remains significant challenges in chemical industry. However, there are only few adsorbents that can effectively isolate C hydrocarbons from their mixtures particularly at a high temperature. Herein, we design a zeolitic octahedral metal oxide based on ϵ-Keggin polyoxometalates with metal ion linkers. Single gas adsorption of the material shows the different adsorption performances for the C hydrocarbons and the strong interaction of the material with the C hydrocarbons. Dynamic competitive adsorption experiments show that the material efficiently separates each of the binary C hydrocarbon mixtures and even the ternary C hydrocarbon mixtures with high selectivity. The material keeps high separation performance even the temperature was increased to 85 °C. The material is stable and is able to be reused without loss of the separation performance.

Direct oxidation of methane to methanol utilizing molecular oxygen under mild conditions is an important yet challenging process due to the difficulty in activation of methane under such conditions. In this research, we report zeolitic octahedral metal oxides based on cobalt vanadotungstates, which act as the catalysts for oxidation of methane using molecular oxygen as the oxidant without co-reductants at a low temperature of 90 oC even as low as 60 oC. This catalytic process results in the high-yield production of methanol as the major product.

A 4 Å zeolite prepared under the synergistic effect of intense ultrasound and a high-voltage electrostatic field had an octahedral structure rather than a conventional hexahedral structure. XPS and XRD analyses showed that the ratio of silicon to aluminum, 2θ peak position, and the corresponding crystal planes were the same as those in traditional hexahedral 4 Å zeolite, but some crystal planes were more prominent. SEM imaging showed that the octahedral zeolites had a larger particle size.

The perovskite quantum dots (QDs) of CsPbX (X = Cl, Br, I) exhibit exceptional photoluminescent properties, but their sensitivity to moisture and heat poses a challenge. This study presents a solvent-free synthesis approach for incorporating CsPbBr perovskite QDs into zeolite A. The introduction of [CsPbBr] perovskite QDs into the zeolite framework resulted in a highly stable configuration, maintaining its initial luminescence properties even after being underwater or exposed to heat.

Furfural is a biomass-derived platform molecule that can be converted into a variety of useful products. Catalysts having appropriate balance between Lewis and Brønsted acid sites are suitable for valorisation of furfural. Lewis acidic metal ion incorporated zeolites were studied for this purpose.

In this study, a novel Ag-loaded 4 Å zeolite was synthesized through the combined action of strong ultrasound and a high-voltage electrostatic field (the Z-Ag-UE) and its catalytic activity was evaluated in the epoxidation of styrene. The prepared catalysts were characterized using XRD, SEM, XPS, BET, TG, ICP-OES. The results showed that the silver evenly dispersed inside the octahedral 4 Å zeolite structure rather than being attached to the surface of the material like in the impregnation method, and this Ag-loaded 4 Å zeolite had a high surface area, uniform particle size distribution, and excellent high temperature thermal stability.
