Abstract: The synthesis of zeolite beta by the vapour-phase transport method using tetraethylammonium bromide (TEABr) as a cheap organic template was studied. With TEABr being solid state at room temperature, the materials were mixed directly, and the preparing xerogel was not necessary. This method is promising and economical, which simplifies the synthetic process and reduces the cost.

Key words: zeolite beta, tetraethylammonium bromide, vapour-phase transport method, ternary compositional diagram, template
