Keynote

The susceptibility of the zeolite to hot liquid water is different from that to high-temperature steam.  We show that the instability is related to the density of zeolite defects rather than to the Si/Al ratio. The role of zeolite structure and preparation parameters has been analyzed by several techniques.
