having been used in hydrocracking processes for decades,
zeolite Y is still nowadays the subject of intense research aiming
at improving its physicochemical properties. Here, and for the first
time, the synthesis of zeolite Y nanocrystals prepared in organic
template-free medium, featuring both extremely reduced dimensions
(mean diameter below 30 nm) and a high silicon to aluminum ratio (Si/Al
≈ 2.2), is reported. The singularity of the protocol lies in
the progressive adding of a silica source during synthesis combined
with the use of prolonged aging times. These high-silica ultra-nanosized
zeolite Y crystals display excellent textural properties (Vmicropore = 0.33 cm3/g and SBET = 830 m2/g), comparable to their
microsized counterparts. In this work, the extensive study of the
influence of various parameters (i.e., gel composition,
aging time, and crystallization conditions) intended for the optimization
of the synthesis protocol is also presented.
