For the synthesis of zeolite membrane by AM method, the crystallization of zeolite proceeds under MH, so MH time should have a great effect on the properties of as-synthesized membranes. Thus, A 50,7 M 15 and A 50,7 M 35 syntheses were carried out to investigate the effect of MH time.

The preparation of zeolite membranes usually involves long hydrothermal synthesis at elevated temperature, which leads to issues like lengthy synthesis, high energy consumption, safety concern etc. It is desirable to prepare zeolite membranes at low temperature with short synthesis time.
