Zeolites are important industrial catalysts; their unique shape-selectivity is the basis of important applications, but also a pitfall limiting their efficiency. Overcoming or decreasing the diffusion limitations in zeolites is important to improve their catalytic and separation performance. The present Ph.D. thesis reports work on the preparation of zeolites with increased porosity via post-synthesis chemical etching. The work aims to create secondary porosity (mesopores) connected to the native microporosity without altering the intrinsic zeolite properties. Three zeolite types are studied: a small pore SSZ-13 (CHA), a medium pore ZSM-5 (MFI), and a large pore zeolite L (LTL). Zeolite L study compares the etching abilities of NH4F and NH4...
