Preparation and oxygen storage of cadmium-modified zeolites with superior electron transfer capacities†
Abstract
A cadmium-modified zeolite with superior electron transfer capacities has been prepared by the incorporation of cadmium vapor into the channels of a dehydrated HZSM-5 (protonated zeolite ZSM-5). This Cd-containing zeolite material possesses superior oxygen storage property. Meanwhile, univalent Cd+ species can be observed for this zeolite under ultraviolet irradiation.
