Claims16
A functionalized fibrous hierarchical zeolite comprising
- a framework comprising aluminum atoms, silicon atoms, and oxygen atoms, the framework further comprising a plurality of micropores and a plurality of mesopores, wherein:
- a plurality of nanoparticles comprising platinum are immobilized on the framework.
A method for making a functionalized fibrous hierarchical zeolite comprising a plurality of nanoparticles comprising platinum, the method comprising:
- contacting a functionalized fibrous hierarchical zeolite comprising isolated terminal organometallic functionalities comprising platinum with an atmosphere comprising H2, wherein the fibrous hierarchical zeolite comprises:
- a framework comprising aluminum atoms, silicon atoms, and oxygen atoms, the framework further comprising a plurality of micropores and a plurality of mesopores, the fibrous hierarchical zeolite being functionalized with at least one terminal hydroxyl;
- wherein
- the nanoparticles comprising platinum are immobilized on the framework, thereby producing functionalized fibrous hierarchical zeolite comprising a plurality of nanoparticles comprising platinum.
