Key Words:

Abstract:TAPO-5 molecular sieve membranes were synthesized by using steam-assisted gel conversion method. The as-synthesized TAPO-5 membranes were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), as well as UV-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscope (UV-Vis). Results were compared with those by conventional hydrothermal crystallization method. The influences of the aging conditions and crystallization time on the surface morphology, coverage and denseness of the membrane together with the crystalline structure of molecular sieve crystals were investigated. By using steam-assisted gel conversion method, continuous and dense TAPO-5 molecular sieve membranes could be fabricated on porous α-Al2O3 substrates after crystallization for 48 h because the pre-aged solid gel were favorable to the incorporation of Ti atoms into the tetrahedral framework and the intergrowth of TAPO-5 crystals.
