【Abstract】 Zeolites molecular sieves have been widely used in many fields such as ion-exchange, adsorption, separation and catalysis for its special and uniform pores. The discovery of zeolites is early and the kinds of zeolites have been greatly enriched by semicentennial development, but few zeolites have been applied in the industry except A, X, Y, L, MOR, ZSM-5, and Beta. Zeolites A, X, Y are the earliest discovered molecular sieves, but until now, they are still widely used in the industry. The study of their growth not only has theory meaning but also has practical worthiness.Many factors could influence the syntheses of zeolites, and silica source is a most important one. The active of silica source could influence the synthesized product, for example, in the synthesis of NaY zeolite with water glass, 5% NaY seeds solution is needed. In this work, zeolites A, X, and Y are synthesized by using NaY seeds solution as silica source, and the crystallization kinetics are studied in detail. Furthermore, NaY seeds solution has been primarily characterized. The reasons for the three zeolites we selected are as follow: (1) they are all widely used in industry; (2)βcage is the same building units for the three zeolites.Zeolite A has been widely used in laundy detergents. In this work, zeolite A was fast crystallized at low temperature by using NaY seeds solution as a silica source and the nucleation/crystallization kinetics of A zeolite were investigated in detail. It was found that NaY seeds solution with a proper ratioes of SiO2/Al2O3 and Na2O/SiO2 is suitable for the synthesis of A zeolite. The composition of NaY seeds solution with molar ratios of 18Na2O:1Al2O3: 19SiO2: 365H2O was chosen for the study. The obvious advantages of the seeds solution method for the synthesis of zeolite A are fast crystallization rate and low crystallization temperature. For example, by using NaY seeds solution as silica source, zeolite A can be fully crystallized for 45 h at 60°C with the batch composition 4Na2O:1Al2O3: 2SiO2: 100H2O, while 910 h is needed if the silica source is water glass and the crystallinity is only 90%. Furthermore, the method is of benefit to the synthesis of nano-sized A zeolite at low alkalinity. In the reference, nano-sized A zeolite was synthesized with H2O/Na2O=13, while in this work, the same sized A zeolite was obtained with H2O/Na2O=20. A zeolite with different particle size was obtained and the corresponding Ca2+ ion exchange capacity was studied. It was found that zeolite A with crystal diameters of 5001000 nm has good calcium ion exchange capacity, and too small particle size affects calcium ion exchange capacity of A zeolite for particle aggregating. Characterization of NaY seed solution by 29Si NMR and UV Raman techniques suggests that zeolite primary building units such as 4-ring, 6-ring andβcage contained in NaY seed solution possibly promote the nucleation and growth of LTA zeolite.There are considerable interests in the syntheses of nanosized zeolites in the past decade owing to their widely applications as supports for catalytic, catalyst for petrochemical reactions, sorbent, and in the preparing of functional materials. In this work, nanosized NaX zeolite have been synthesized using NaY seeds solution as silica source, and the factors in the synthesis, such as crystallization temperature, SiO2/Al2O3 ratio, H2O/Al2O3 ratio and Na2O/ Al2O3 ratio are discussed. Different factors are taken into account and the final synthesis condition is chosen with the batch composition 5.5Na2O:Al2O3: 3SiO2: 156H2O, and crystallized at 60°C for 8 h. SEM images of the NaX nanocrystals show that the particle sizes of the NaX nanocrystals are mostly in the range of 2050 nm. The high external surface estimated from the N2 adsorption isotherms and a new broad silanol vibration in the FT-IR spectra also suggest that the particle sizes are very small. For comparision, water glass instead of zeolite Y seeds solution as silica source is used to synthesize NaX zeolite. It is found that: (1) With the same gel composition of 5.5Na2O:Al2O3: 3SiO2: 156H2O, the induction period and crystallization time of NaX zeolite are about 2h and 68h when NaY seeds solution is used as silica source. While the induction period and crystallization time are prolonged to 6h and 1416h when water glass is used as silica source. (2) B. Z. Zhan et al. synthesized NaX nanocrystals at low temperature (60°C) with gel composition 5.5Na2O: Al2O3: 4SiO2: 190H2O. The particle sizes of the product increase to be in the micron range with the crystallization temperature increase to 90°C. However, nanosized NaX zeolite could be obtained at 6090°C by using NaY seeds solution as a silica source. Compared with conventional synthesis, the method shows obvious advantages including relatively short crystallization time and small crystal sizes.NaY zeolite is one of the most important zeolites for its wide applications in petrochemical industry. Compared with NaX zeolte, the synthesis of NaY zeolite is more difficult for its higher SiO2/Al2O3 ratio, and requiring active raw material. For example, synthesis of NaY zeolite is difficult from water glass as single silica source, and usually NaY seeds solution is needed. Here, we demonstrate the synthesis of the NaY zeolite by using NaY seeds solution as a silica soure at the temperature ranged 60140°C and SiO2/Al2O3 ratio 820. Furthermore, different factors of the synthesis are discussed, such as crystallization temperature, crystallization time, SiO2/Al2O3 ratio and Na2O/SiO2 ratio, and we find that low temperature (≤100°C) and short crystallization time are preferred for the preparation of nanocrystals. Particlularly, the crystallization temperature could be ranged from 100 to 140°C using NaY zeolite seeds solution while NaY zeolite is normally synthesized in the temperature of 100°C using water glass as silica source. Different factors for the synthesis of NaY zeolite and the kinetics of crystallization of NaY zeolite are studied, and we findd that with the crystallization temperature increased, the crystallization rate of zeolite Y increased and hydrothermal conversion from Y to zeolite P became faster, but the crystallization area of zeolite Y is reduced. Furthermore, reducing the molar ratio of Na2O/SiO2 or increasing the molar ratio of SiO2/Al2O3 could severely redue the crystallization rate. Interestingly, when the crystallization temperature is higher than 100°C, not only P but also ECR-1 and MOR could appear when the Na2O/SiO2 ratio is further reduced. Moreover, proper conditions for the crystallization of nanocrystals of NaY zeolite are obtained including aproperate long aging time of NaY seeds solution; low crystallization temperature and short crystallization time. Additionally, NaY zeolite with high SiO2/Al2O3 ratio about 6 was also synthesized according to the reaction condition. The physical properties of the high silica NaY was characterized by several methods.The SiO2/Al2O3 ratio of X-type zeolite is between 2 and 3, and it is usually above 2.4. X-type zeolite with SiO2/Al2O3 about 2 is more efficient in removing not only calcium hardness but also magnesium hardness from water than zeolite A because of its larger pore size and high aluminates content. It is well known that in Na+ system, zeolite A crystallizes when the SiO2/Al2O3 ratio is below 3 in the aluminosilicate gel. However, if K+ is added in the system, high aluminum content of NaX zeolite (SiO2/Al2O3≈2) crystallizes. In this system, the present of potassium ion can suppress the nuclei of NaA zeolite. However, sodium form of the zeolite exchanging calcium and magnesium from solution is faster than the mixed sodium potassium form, and until now, few papers report the crystallization of high aluminous zeolite X (SiO2/Al2O3≈2) from pure sodium system. We studied in detail on the synthesis of high aluminous zeolite X with low SiO2/Al2O3 molar ratio in the batch by using NaY seeds solution as a silica source, and found that the product will change from X zeolite to mixture of A+X to A zeolite with the crystallization temperature increased, which was explained from the view of mesostability, thermodynamics and kinetics. In my work, NaX zeolite with SiO2/Al2O3≈2 was successfully synthesized by optimizing the reaction condition and was characterized by several methods. The content of A and X zeolite in the product can be controlled by changing the crystallization temperature or the ratio of Na2O/SiO2. Additionally, it is also a new method for the synthesis of high aluminous zeolite X+A zeolite mixture, which is important for the potential use in laundry detergents. Compared with conventional synthesis from water glass as silica source, NaY seeds solution as silica source in the synthesis has obvious advantages such as short crystallization time and preparing highly aluminous zeolite X.This work demomstrate a novel method to synthesize A, NaX and NaY by using NaY seeds solution as silica source, and it is also a method of activation of silica source in the synthesis of aluminosiliacte zeolites. In this method, the active siliceous or aluminosiliceous precursors were obtained by adding definite quantity of sodium hydroxide and aluminate source to sodium silicate. Possibly, the promotion of crystallization for the three zeolites may due to the same building unit exisiting in the zeolites and the NaY seeds solution. The method should be extended to the synthesis of other zeolites.
