Synthesis of ZSM‐5 Zeolite Nanosheets with Tunable Silanol Nest Contents across an Ultra‐wide pH Range and Their Catalytic Validation

Zeolite synthesis under acidic conditions has always presented a challenge. In this study, we successfully prepared series of ZSM‐5 zeolite nanosheets (Z‐5‐SCA‐X) over a broad pH range (4 to 13) without the need for additional supplements. This achievement was realized through aggregation crystallization of ZSM‐5 zeolite subcrystal (Z‐5‐SC) with highly short‐range ordering and ultrasmall size extracted from the synthetic system of ZSM‐5 zeolite. Furthermore, the crystallization behavior of Z‐5‐SC was investigated, revealing its non‐classical crystallization process under mildly alkaline and acidic conditions (pH
