A specially fabricated in situ Raman cell was coupled to a UV Raman spectrometer to investigate both the solid and liquid phases during the formation of zeolite X under high temperatures and pressures (see picture). It is proposed that 4-rings formed at initial nucleation interconnect with each other via 6-rings to form the zeolite X framework.
