In hypersonic aircraft, increase of aerodynamic heat and engine heat leads heat loads in airframe. It could lead structural change of aircraft's component and malfunctioning. Endothermic fuels are liquid hydrocarbon fuels which are able to absorb the heat load by undergoing endothermic reactions. In this study, exo-tetrahydrodicyclopentadiene was selected as a model endothermic fuel and experiments on endothermic properties were investigated with pore structure controlled zeolite catalyst using metal deposition. We secured the catalyst that had better endothermic performance than commercial catalyst. The object of this study is inspect catalyst properties which have effect on heat absorption improvement. Synthetic catalyst could be applied to system that use exo-THDCP as endothermic fuel instead of other commercial catalyst.

Large colorless single crystals of faujasite-type zeolite with diameters up to 200 μm have been synthesized from gels with the composition of 3.58SiO2:2.08NaAlO2:7.59NaOH:455H2O:5.06TEA:1.23TCl. Two of these, colorless octahedron about 200 μm in cross-section have been treated with aqueous 0.1 M TlC2H3O2 and KNO3 in order to prepare Tl+- and K+-exchanged faujasite-type zeolites, respectively, and then determined the Si/Al ratio of the zeolite framework. The crystal structures of |Tl71|[Si121Al71O384]-FAU and |K53Na18|[Si121Al71O384]-FAU per unit cell, a = 24.9463(2) and 24.9211(16) A, respectively, dehydrated at 673 K and 1 × 10-6 Torr, have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques in the cubic space group Fd m at 294 K. The two single-crystal structures were refined using all intensities to the final error indices (using only the 905 and 429 reflections for which Fo > 4σ(Fo)) R1/R2 = 0.059/0.153 and 0.066/0.290, respectively. In the structure of fully Tl+-exchanged faujasite-type zeolite, 71 Tl+ ions per unit cell are located at four different crystallographic sites. Twenty-nine Tl+ ions fill site I' in the sodalite cavities on 3-fold axes opposite double 6-rings (Tl-O = 2.631(12) A and O-Tl-O = 93.8(4)o). Another 31 Tl+ ions fill site II opposite single 6-rings in the supercage (Tl-O = 2.782(12) A and O-Tl-O = 87.9(4)o). About 3 Tl+ ions are found at site III in the supercage (Tl-O = 2.91(6) and 3.44(3) A), and the remaining 8 occupy another site III (Tl-O = 2.49(5) and 3.06(3) A). In the structure of partially K+-exchanged faujasite-type zeolite, 53 K+ ions per unit cell are found at five different crystallographic sites and 18 Na+ ions per unit cell are found at two different crystallographic sites. The 4 K+ ions are located at site I, the center of the hexagonal prism (K-O = 2.796(8) A and O-K-O = 89.0(3)o). The 10 K+ ions are found at site I' in the sodalite cavity (K-O = 2.570(19) A and O-KO = 99.4(9)o). Twenty-two K+ ions are found at site II in the supercage (K-O = 2.711(9) A and O-K-O = 94.7(3)o). The 5 K+ ions are found at site III deep in the supercage (K-O = 2.90(5) and 3.36(3) A), and 12 K+ ions are found at another site III' (K-O = 2.55(3) and 2.968(18) A). Twelve Na+ ions also lie at site I' (Na-O = 2.292(10) and O-Na-O = 117.5(5)o). The 6 Na+ ions are found at site II in the supercage (Na-O = 2.390(17) A and O-Na-O = 113.1(11)o). The Si/Al ratio of synthetic faujasite-type zeolite is 1.70 determined by the occupations of cations, 71, in two single-crystal structures.

The electronic structure of oxygen atom of cation-exchanged zeolite was investigated by utilizing X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS). The obtained $O_{1S}$ spectra of $Na^+-$, $Fe^{2+}-$ and $Fe^{3+}-$ exchanged zeolite X and Y were deconvoluted to demonstrate electronic binding energy of framework oxygens. There were 2-3 bands in each spectrum. The characteristics of separated band have been studied in terms of binding energy and relative area of $O_{1S}$ electron with respect to the exchanged cation. Those bands were assigned to the bridged oxygen in framework (band 1), cation bonded oxygen in cationic site (band 2) and oxygen in water coordinated to the cation (band 3) each other. The band 1 occupying the majority area of $O_{1S}$ spectrum was shifted to higher region on binding energy according to the decrease of Al content in zeolite.

Three single crystals of fully dehydrated $Co^{2+}$-exchanged zeolite Y (Si/Al = 1.56) were prepared by the exchange of $Na_{75}$-Y ($|Na_{75}|[Si_{117}Al_{75}O_{384}]$-FAU) with aqueous streams 0.05 M in $Co(NO_3)_2$, pH = 5.1, at 294 K for 6 h, 12 h, and 18 h, respectively, followed by vacuum dehydration at 673 K. Their single-crystal structures were determined by synchrotron X-ray diffraction techniques in the cubic space group Fd3m at 100(1) K. They were refined to the final error indices $R_1/wR_2$ = 0.0437/0.1165, 0.0450/0.1228, and 0.0469/0.1278, respectively. Their unit-cell formulas are $|Co_{29.1}Na_{11.8}H_{5.0}|[Si_{117}Al_{75}O_{384}]$-FAU, $|Co_{29.8}Na_{11.0}H_{4.4}|[Si_{117}Al_{75}O_{384}]$-FAU, and $|Co_{30.3}Na_{9.5}H_{4.9}|[Si_{117}Al_{75}O_{384}]$-FAU, respectively. In all three crystals, $Co^{2+}$ ions occupy sites I, I' and II; $Na^+$ ions are also at site II. The tendency of $Co^{2+}$ exchange slightly increases with increasing contact time as $Na^+$ content and the unit cell constant of the zeolite framework decrease.

In this work, DAY (Dealuminated Y-type) zeolites were prepared to be used as easily regenerable and thermally stable adsorbent substituting activated carbon. NaY zeolites were transformed into DAY zeolites through ion exchange, calcination, steaming, and acid leaching. Calcination temperature and time, and steaming time were changed to increase the Si/Al ratio and maintain crystallinity. Adsorption of VOCs were done for prepared DAY, commercial NaY and Hisiv 1000 in air with relative humidity of 50%. The DAY zeolite prepared by calcination at $520^{\circ}C$ for 4 hrs and steaming for 7 hrs had a same structure and a Si/Al ratio of 80.4. Its adsorption capacity for water vapor was 10% of NaY, indicating its hydrophobicity. Its adsorption capacity for MEK was 0.8 times of Hisiv 1000, that for toluene 1.6 times, and that for EA 1.3 times.

The acid catalytic reactions of toluene with n-propylalcohol were investigated and the adsorption experiments of dialkylbenzene isomers were carried out at 100$^{\circ}C$ over modified HZSM-5 zeolites. ZSM-5 zeolite was synthesized by the hydrothermal reaction using 4-propylammonium ion, sodium aluminate and colloidal silica etc., and several zeolite catalysts, including H-, K-, Sr-, P-Mg-HZSM-5, H-Y and H-mordenite, were prepared by conventional methods. The main reaction products of toluene with n-propylalcohol over HZSM-5 catalyst include not only xylenes, propyltoluenes, but also ethyltoluenes and high para-selectivity among dialkylbenzene isomers was observed on P-Mg-HZSM-5 zeolite. The diffusion coefficients of various p-dialkylbenzenes are nearly the same, about 1 ${times}$ 10$^{-10}$ cm$^2$/sec and that of m-xylene was about one tenth of o-xylene. These reaction and adsorption characteristics were interpreted in the light of the shape-selectivity related to related to the zeolite pore structure and the zeolitic acidity.

A zeolitic material (Z-Y2) was synthesized from Coal Fly Ash (CFA) using a fusion/hydrothermal method under low-alkali condition (NaOH/CFA = 0.6). The adsorption performance of the prepared zeolite was evaluated by monitoring its removal efficiencies for Sr and Cs ions, which are well-known as significant radionuclides in liquid radioactive waste. The XRD (X-ray diffraction) patterns of the synthesized Z-Y2 indicated that a Na-A type zeolite was formed from raw coal fly ash. The SEM (scanning electron microscope) images also showed that a cubic crystal structure of size $1{\sim}3{\mu}m$ was formed on its surface. In the adsorption kinetic analysis, the adsorption of Sr and Cs ions on Z-Y2 fitted the pseudo-second-order kinetic model well, instead of the pseudo-first-order kinetic model. The second-order kinetic rate constant ($k_2$) was determined to be $0.0614g/mmol{\cdot}min$ for Sr and $1.8172g/mmol{\cdot}min$ for Cs. The adsorption equilibria of Sr and Cs ions on Z-Y2 were fitted successfully by Langmuir model. The maximum adsorption capacity ($q_m$) of Sr and Cs was calculated as 1.6846 mmol/g and 1.2055 mmol/g, respectively. The maximum desorption capacity ($q_{dm}$) of the Na ions estimated via the Langmuir desorption model was 2.4196 mmol/g for Sr and 2.1870 mmol/g for Cs. The molar ratio of the desorption/adsorption capacity ($q_{dm}/q_m$) was determined to be 1.44 for Na/Sr and 1.81 for Na/Cs, indicating that the amounts of desorbed Na ions and adsorbed Sr and Cs ions did not yield an equimolar ratio when using Z-Y2.

Carbon materials obtained from organic polymers are usually amorphous structure. The structure of carbon materials is not nearly as well defined as that of zeolite. Carbon are amorphous materials with comparatively wide pore size distribution as compared to the crystalline zeolites with monodisperse ultramicropore and micropore dimensions. (omitted)

The crystal structure of dehydrated $Rb^+$-exchanged zeolite X, stoichiometry $Rb_{71}Na_{21}-X\; (Rb_{71}Na_{21}Si_{100}Al_{92}O_{384})$ per unit cell, has been determined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction date gathered by counter methods. The structure was solved and refined in the cubic space group Fd3, a=25.007(3) Å at 21(1) ℃. The crystal was prepared by ion exchange in a flowing stream using a 0.05 M aqueous RbOH solution (pH=12.7). The crystal was then dehydrated at 360 ℃ and $2{\times}10^{-6}$ torr for two days. The structure was refined to the final error indices, $R_1=0.047$ and $R_2=0.040$ with 239 reflections for which I> 3σ(I). In this structure, 71 $Rb^+$ ions per unit cell are found at six different crystallographic sites and 21 $Na^+$ ions per unit cell are found at two different crystallographic sites. Four and a half $Rb^+$ ions are located at site Ⅰ, the center of the hexagonal prism. Nine $Rb^+$ ions are found at site Ⅰ' in the sodalite cavity (Rb-O=2.910(15) Å and O-Rb-O=78.1(4)°). Eighteen $Rb^+$ ions are found at site Ⅱ in the supercage (Rb-O=2.789(9) Å and O-Rb-O=92.1(4)°).

The structure of a carbon monoxide sorption complex of dehydrated fully $Ca^{2+}$-exchanged zeolite X, $|Ca_{46}(CO)_{27}|[Si_{100}Al_{92}O_{384}]$-FAU, has been determined in the cubic space group $Fd\;{\overline{3}}$ at $21^{\circ}C$ (a = 24.970(4) ) by single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. The crystal was prepared by ion exchange in a flowing stream of 0.05 M aqueous ${Ca(NO_3)_2}$ for three days, followed by dehydration at $400^{\circ}C$ and $2{\times}10^{-6}$ Torr for two days, and exposure to 100 Torr of zeolitically dry carbon monoxide gas at $21^{\circ}C$. The structure was determined in this atmosphere and was refined, using the 356 reflections for which $F_o$ > $4{\sigma}(F_o)$, to the final error indices $R_1$ = 0.059 and $wR_2$ = 0.087. In this structure, $Ca^{2+}$ ions occupy three crystallographic sites. Sixteen $Ca^{2+}$ ions fill the octahedral site I at the centers of hexagonal prisms (Ca-O = 2.415(7) ${\AA}$). The remaining 30 $Ca^{2+}$ ions are found at two nonequivalent sites II (in the supercages) with occupancies of 3 and 27 ions. Each of these $Ca^{2+}$ ions coordinates to three framework oxygens, either at 2.276(10) or 2.298(8) ${\AA}$, respectively. Twenty-seven carbon monoxide molecules have been sorbed per unit cell, three per supercage. Each coordinates to one of the latter 16 site-II $Ca^{2+}$ ions: C-Ca = 2.72(8) ${\AA}$. The imprecisely determined N-C bond length, 1.26(14) ${\AA}$, differs insignificantly from that in carbon monoxide(g), 1.13 ${\AA}$.
