Hypothetical zeolites are combinatorial models of potential structures of the minerals known as zeolites. They are four-regular periodic graphs, with vertices representing the tetrahedral atom (usually Si or Al) and the edges representing the bridging oxygen atoms. Alternatively, by ignoring the tetrahedral atoms, zeolites can be represented by ...
Zeolite exhibited in the Estonian Museum of Natural History. Zeolite is a group of several microporous, crystalline aluminosilicate minerals commonly used as commercial adsorbents and catalysts. [1] They mainly consist of silicon, aluminium, oxygen, and have the general formula M n+ 1/n (AlO 2) − (SiO 2) x ･y H 2 O where M n+ 1/n is either ...
It commonly occurs as a devitrification product of volcanic glass shards in tuff and as vesicle fillings in basalts, andesites and rhyolites. It was described in 1969 from an occurrence in the Barstow Formation, San Bernardino County, California. Sodium levels in clinoptilolite are generally higher than potassium levels, as is the case with the ...
Since the metal-imidazole-metal angle is similar to the 145° Si-O-Si angle in zeolites, ZIFs have zeolite-like topologies. [2] As of 2010, 105 ZIF topologies have been reported in the literature. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] Due to their robust porosity, resistance to thermal changes, and chemical stability, ZIFs are being investigated for applications such as ...
Under the term zeolites, molecular sieves are used for a wide range of catalytic applications. They catalyze isomerisation , alkylation , and epoxidation , and are used in large scale industrial processes, including hydrocracking and fluid catalytic cracking .

Zeolite facies describes the mineral assemblage resulting from the pressure and temperature conditions of low-grade metamorphism.. The zeolite facies is generally considered to be transitional between diagenetic processes which turn sediments into sedimentary rocks, and prehnite-pumpellyite facies, which is a hallmark of subseafloor alteration of the oceanic crust around mid-ocean ridge ...
This section displays zeolite minerals and crystals excavated from the Deccan region of India, mainly Maharashtra and surroundings states. Exhibits include: Zeolite, mineral, and crystal specimens; Fossils of shells, extinct dinosaurs, and mammoths; Finest quality of statues carved out of precious/semi-precious stones; The fluorescent mineral ...
