Topology-Dependent Free-Energy Barriers Underlying Activity Differences in Toluene Disproportionation over HZSM-5 and HMCM-22 Zeolites

Abstract Toluene disproportionation is an important industrial route to para-xylene, in which HZSM-5 (MFI topology) and HMCM-22 (MWW topology) are two representative zeolite catalysts that exhibit pronounced differences in their catalytic activity. To understand the molecular ori...
