Welcome to the IZA Website

The International Zeolite Association (IZA) was organized in 1973 at the 3rd International Molecular Sieve Conference to promote and encourage the development of all aspects of zeolite science and technology.

9-Apr-08 Eric G. Derouane
  It is with great sadness that we report the death of Professor Eric G Derouane on March 17, 2008 in Faro, Portugal. His contributions on zeolite catalysis and the concepts he introduced have fascinated zeolite scientists for almost four decades and will be sorely missed. More details on his life and achievements are being compiled by his friends and will be soon on the web site.

18-Feb-08 Compilation of Extra Framework Sites in Zeolites by W.J. Mortier (1982)
  The Compilation of Extra Framework Sites in Zeolites by W.J. Mortier published in 1982 by Butterworth & Co. has been out of print for many years, but there are still occasional requests for it. Mike Treacy has now scanned a copy of the book (provided by Wilfried Mortier) and created a pdf file. We have been given permission by Elsevier to make this pdf file available on the IZA website. It can be accessed via the Database of Zeolite Structures (click on PDF on the Database entry page) or by clicking on the book title above.
   
29-Jan-08 Natural Tilings for all Framework Types
  have been added to the Structure Commission's Database of Zeolite Structures. For more information, see
    V. A. Blatov, O. Delgado-Friedrichs, M. O'Keeffe & D. M. Proserpio, Acta Crystallogr. A 63, 418-425 (2007)
   
29-Jan-08 The Structure Commission has approved three new Framework Type Codes
  (Information on these framework types can be found in the Database of Zeolite Structures)
    SBN Type material: UCSB-9
Related material: SU-46
 
    SSF Type material: SSZ-65;  
    *STO Type material: SSZ-31 (polymorph I)

20-Dec-07 Database of AlPO Syntheses
    Dr. Jiyang Li, Prof. Jihong Yu and Prof. Ruren Xu have just made their
      Database of AlPO Syntheses
    available on the web.  It contains data gathered from the literature on more than 1600 syntheses and over 200 AlPO structures.  Each entry in the database includes a literature reference, detailed information about the source materials, the template and the synthesis conditions, and the structural characteristics of the product.  All fields are searchable.  You can access it via the Database of Zeolite Structures under "Other Links".  Your comments, suggestions and corrections are very welcome and should be sent to Prof. Yu at jihong@jlu.edu.cn.
