Abstract

A new route to the synthesis of highly b-oriented zeolite MFI films is demonstrated for the first time using ammonium salts as crystallization-mediating agents in secondary growth. The ammonium salts tailor the crystallization process and silicate–NH4+ interactions dominate over TPA–NH4+ interactions so that nucleation was effectively suppressed during secondary growth.
