Mechanically stable zeolite monoliths containing three-dimensional, ordered, closed macropores (see Figure) have been fabricated by hydrothermal treatment of nanozeolite seeded mesoporous silica spheres. The facile speed of sedimentation and digestion renders the whole process suitable for large-scale production of macroporous zeolite materials, which may be used as adsorbents and dielectric insulators.
