MESOSTRUCTURED MATERIAL HAVING A HIGH ALUMINIUM CONTENT AND COMPOSED OF SPHERICAL PARTICLES OF SPECIFIC SIZE
A mesostructured material is described that is composed of at least two elementary spherical particles, each of said particles comprising a mesostructured matrix based on aluminium oxide, said matrix having a pore diameter between 1.5 and 30 nm and an aluminium oxide content that represents more than 46% by weight relative to the weight of said matrix, which matrix has amorphous walls of thickness between 1 and 30 nm, said elementary spherical particles having a diameter D greater than 10 µm and less than or equal to 100 µm (10 100). Said mesostructured matrix may also contain silicon oxide. Each of the spherical particles of the mesostructured material may also contain zeolite nanocrystals so as to form a material having a mixed porosity of both mesostructured and zeolitic nature. The preparation of said material is also described.
