The article presents the synthesis of zeolite ITQ-33 by by Avelino Corma and others in Valencia. The ITQ-33 has the largest known void with qualities of thermal stability, and confirms to structure-prediction programs. The synthesis has been done by using hexamethonium, fluoride and germanium. The article also presents that zeolites act as industrial solid-acid catalysts, and have many applications in the petroleum and chemical industries.
