Abstract

The zeolite structure is a porous zeolite structure constituted of a formed article obtained by extruding a zeolite raw material containing zeolite particles and an inorganic binding material including at least basic aluminum chloride, a ratio P 1 (P 1 =V 2 /V 1 ×100) of a volume V 2 of the inorganic binding material in the zeolite structure with respect to a volume V 1 of the zeolite structure is from 10 to 50 vol %, and a relation of equation (1) is satisfied:

P2/P1≦1.0  (1),

in which P 1 is the ratio of the volume V 2 of the inorganic binding material in the zeolite structure with respect to the volume V 1 of the zeolite structure and P 2 (P 2 =Vb/Va×100) is a ratio of volumes Vb of pores having pore diameters of 0.003 to 0.03 μm with respect to the whole pore volume Va of the zeolite structure.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A manufacturing method of a zeolite structure, comprising:
a step of mixing zeolite particles, an inorganic binding material which binds the zeolite particles to one another, and an organic binder to prepare a zeolite raw material, the inorganic binding material including basic aluminum chloride in an amount corresponding to 10 to 30 mass % in terms of a solid content to 100 mass % of the zeolite particles;
a step of extruding the obtained zeolite raw material to obtain a formed zeolite article; and
a step of firing the obtained formed zeolite article to prepare the zeolite structure,
wherein the step of preparing the zeolite raw material includes the steps of adding the inorganic binding material in an amount in accordance with a mass change ratio before and after firing the inorganic binding material so that a volume of the inorganic binding material included in the zeolite structure with respect to a volume of the zeolite structure obtained by firing the formed zeolite article is from 10 to 50 vol %.
