A zeolite composite composed of ZSM-5 andβ-zeolites has been synthesized by a procedure of the nucleation and crystallization of ZSM-5 zeolite in the hollowβ-zeolite.The property ofβ-zeolite crystals with aluminum-poor interior and aluminum-rich outer rim results in silicon extraction favorably in the aluminum-poor bulk rather than the aluminum-rich external surface.Subsequently,alkaline treatment ofβ-zeolite crystals during the second-step synthesis leads to a preferential dissolution of the aluminum-poor center and the formation of hollowβ-zeolite crystals.ZSM-5 zeolite crystals are therefore embedded and grown within the hollowβ-zeolite.The catalytic activities of Co-Hβ,Co-HZSM-5 and Co-HZSM-5/BEA are investigated during the reaction of methane catalytic reduction NO in the presence of O_2.
