Abstract
A hierarchically structured composite material with interconnecting meso- and micropores has been developed to optimize mass transfer. A generalized synthesis method has been setup, which allows various types of nano-sized zeolite to incorporate into a three-dimensional mesoporous matrix in a controlled manner. There is a great flexibility to tune the physicochemical properties and control the amounts of two components in the composite, while their bulky and surface properties will retain in the composite. The incorporation of beta zeolite shows high activity in the liquid phase alkylation of benzene to ethylbenzene.
