Synthesis And Characterisation Of Microporous Alpo-5 Molecular Sieves Templated By Novel Imidazolium-Based Structural Directing Agents

Microporous aluminophosphate (AlPO) molecular sieves have been successfully crystallised under hydrothermal and ionothermal syntheses. The former approach engaged 3-(2,3-dihydroxypropyl)-1,2-dimethylimidazolium hydroxide, [dhpdm]OH, as a new structure-directing agent (SDA). The ionothermal syn...
