Control of zeolite framework flexibility for ultra-selective carbon dioxide separation
Abstract
All-silica zeolite membranes are highly desired for natural gas upgrading but the size-exclusion effect is compromised by defects generated during high-temperature detemplation. Here, the authors develop a strategy to fabricate ultra-selective DD3R zeolite membranes via tuning the zeolite flexibility under rapid template decomposition.
