Silver exchanged molecular sieves ETS-10 (Ag-ETS-10) and mordenite (Ag-mordenite) were dehydrated under vacuum at temperatures between 100 degrees C-350 degrees C. Changes in the state of the silver were studied using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Silver cations in titanosilicate Ag-ETS-10 are fully reduced to Ag(0) at temperatures as low as 150 degrees C. The characteristic features of the XPS spectrum of silver in this Ag-ETS-10 species correspond to only metallic silver. The signal for metallic silver is not observed in the XPS spectrum of aluminosilicate Ag-mordenite, indicating that silver cations are not reduced, even after heating to 350 degrees C.
