The silicon-aluminum ratio of the molecular sieves is a crucial control index for the quality of synthetic molecular sieves. Here a fast, simple and reliable sample preparation method, referred to as pouring and curing method, is described for determining the silicon-aluminum ratio of high silicon molecular sieves by energy dispersive x-ray fluorescence (EDXRF). Resin is used as the carrier with the addition of a curing agent, so that the sample powder is embedded in the resin matrix. By measuring sixteen random positions of the same cured sample, the homogeneity of the sample was evaluated to ensure the stability of the results. A double logarithmic calibration curve of the analysis line ratio and the corresponding concentration ratio of silicon and aluminum was established according to the binary ratio method. The results by EDXRF and inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometer (ICP-OES) were compared with a relative standard error from 2.934 to 6.777%. The good precision shows that the pouring and curing method is a suitable for measuring the silicon-aluminum ratio of molecular sieves. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
