Preparation and Characterization of Single Crystals of MAPO-43 Molecular Sieve

Large single crystals of MAPO-43 molecular sieve have been synthesized hydrothermally using dimethylamine as the template. The typical molar composition of the starting mixture was 1.0P2O5 : 0.54Al2O3: 0.8MgO: 8.5CH3NHCH3: 0.68HF: 180H2O. The sample was characterized by XRD, TGA, DTA and IR.
