Abstract: A series of Mo-impregnated Hβ samples, with MoO3 loading in Hβ zeolite in the mass fraction range of 0.5%-6.0%, were studied by means of XRD and IR in order to characterize their structures.Mo/Hβ samples' crystallinity almost linearly decreases with increasing the amount of MoO3 loaded.The IR spectra and XRD patterns suggest that the progressive destabilization of the Hβ zeolite structure is caused by increasing Mo loading in (MoO3+Hβ zeolite).During the calcination, Al2(MoO4)3 formed from the dealumination of Hβ zeolite, causes the substantially partial breakdown of the zeolite framework when the Mo loading in MoO3 +Hβ is relatively high.
