In conclusion, this work presents a strategy
integrating MciroED with combinatorial chemistry to synthesize extra-large pore
zeolite and accelerate purification process optimization. The resulting
zeolites, NJU120-1 and NJU120-2, featuring 22MR extra-large pores and tailored
nano morphologies, demonstrated exceptional catalytic performance exceeding
that of commercial benchmarks. Extra-large-pore zeolites hold great promise for
catalysis of bulky molecules but remain difficult to design, synthesize, and
scale. Current challenges include the empirical nature of structure-directing
agents, limited high-throughput characterization, framework stability under
harsh conditions, and high production costs. Future advances will rely on seeds-assisted
crystallization, novel directing agents, and integrated characterization approaches,
enabling broader structural diversity and practical catalytic applications.
