The invention discloses a Beta
zeolite and a preparation method thereof. The Beta
zeolite has the properties as follows: the total pore volume is 0.45-0.99ml / g, the mesoporous pore volume is 0.25-0.89ml / g, the specific surface is 550-1,000m<2> / g, the mesoporous specific surface is 200-600m<2> / g, the volume ratio of the pore volume to the total pore volume is 0.56-0.9 and the
acid content is 0.30-0.85mmol / g. The preparation method comprises the steps of (1) mixing deionized water, a surfactant and a
silicon source in an agitated vessel evenly, heating the agitated vessel to maintain certain pressure in the agitated vessel and adding a template agent, an aluminum source and
sodium hydroxide to the agitated vessel; (2) controlling the certain pressure in the agitated vessel for
crystallization; and (3) closing a decompression valve, further carrying out constant-temperature
crystallization, carrying out decompression, carrying out
solid-liquid separation on the
crystallization product, washing,
drying and
roasting to obtain the Beta
zeolite. The Beta zeolite
crystal particles have a lot of mesoporous channel structures, the mesoporous specific surface and the mesoporous pore volume are improved, mesoporous channels are communicated with microporous channels; and the diffusibility of the Beta zeolite is greatly improved. According to the method, the operation is simple in the preparation process, the production cost is low and the beta zeolite is suitable for massive industrial production.
