Special Issue Information

Zeolites are widely recognized for their well-defined microporous frameworks, tunable pore sizes, and adjustable acidity. As cornerstone materials in industrial catalysis, separation, and ion-exchange processes, they continue to drive remarkable scientific and technological advancements. The evolution from conventional aluminosilicates to a diverse array of advanced zeolite materials-including metal-substituted frameworks and hierarchical architectures-has opened new pathways toward efficient and sustainable applications in both traditional and emerging fields.

This Special Issue aims to highlight recent advances and future directions in the design, synthesis, characterization, and application of advanced zeolite materials. By deepening the fundamental understanding of catalytic processes relevant to energy and the environment, expanding application scopes, and accelerating the development of next-generation zeolite catalysts, this collection seeks to foster innovation in the field. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

(1) Innovative synthesis strategies and post-synthetic modification of advanced zeolite materials;
(2) Advanced characterization techniques for probing zeolite structure and properties;
(3) Adsorption and diffusion behaviors within zeolite frameworks;
(4) Applications of advanced zeolites in energy conversion and environmental catalysis;
(5) Mechanistic insights into structure-performance relationships and reaction pathways;
(6) Emerging applications in areas such as smart sensors, energy storage electrodes, medical therapeutics, and corrosion-resistant coatings, along with assessments of environmental impact and sustainability.
