Abstract
alcohol/water mixture and xylene and butane isomers. Core-shell-structured composites with metal nanoparticles or subnanoparticles as the core and the zeolite, including its modified counterpart, as the shell show excellent catalytic performance in some hydrogenation, dehydrogenation and oxidation reactions. In addition, attempts to illustrate the relationship between zeolite's particle morphology and its catalytic performance are discussed and strategies for the rational design of zeolite's particle size and behavior are envisioned.
