Abstract
ZSM-5 was prepared without the aid of an organic template. Effect of s ynthesis parameters on its catalytic activity in aromatisation of n-he ptane are discussed. Addition of seed material increased the crystalli nity of the ZSM-5 phase. The catalytic activity was comparable with a sample prepared using an organic template. Formation of higher amount of C9+ aromatics was observed over the non-templated zeolite.
