Abstract

The presence of MFI twin crystals on b-axis oriented zeolite MFI nanosheet films was suppressed by adding dihydroxy-benzene isomers in the synthesis mixture. The resulting nanosheet films exhibit good intergrowth and a small grain thickness of 30-45 nm within a relatively short synthesis time (hours). The possible twin suppression mechanisms for the three isomers are discussed.
