Lanthanum Hierarchical SAPO-34: Synthesis, Characterization, and Catalysis Evaluation in Methanol to Propylene Process

Hierarchical SAPO-34 molecular sieve has been synthesized with n-propylamine as a mesoscale template and used to prepare La-Hierarchical SAPO-34 by impregnation by Lanthanum nitrate and has been used in Methanol-to-Propylene (MTP) conversion process. La-H-SAPO-34 demonstrated higher activity and sel...
