Abstract
Permeability is a crucial aspect of zeolite films, and is a characteristic that is dependent on the orientation of the individual zeolite crystals tha t compose the film. In this communication is reported oriented zeolite film s of FAU structure-type on compositionally different, micrometer-sized EMT zeolite crystals. The Figure depicts the edge of such a film, and shows tha t the FAU overgrowth is oriented and highly crystalline.
