MRT: Type Material

Framework Type MRT

Reference Material

Material Name:	ZSM-43
Chemical Formula:	\|Cs_2.4K_0.35 (H₂O)_10.6\|₄ [Al_3.8Si_20.2O₄₈]₄-MRT
Unit Cell:	orthorhombic	C 2 2 2₁ (# 20)
	a' = 14.9947 Å	b' = 27.2289 Å	c' = 13.6213 Å
	α' = 90.000°	β' = 90.000°	γ' = 90.000°
	(Relationship to unit cell of Framework Type: a' = 2b, b' = 2c, c' = a )
Framework Density:	17.3 T/1000 Å³

Channels:

{([010] 8 3.3 x 3.5 <-> [100] 8 3.6 x 3.9*) <-> ([001] 8 3.6 x 3.6* <-> [100] 8 3.7 x 3.9* <-> [001] 8 3.8 x 3.9*)}**

Dimensionality
	Sorption (molecular cross section > 3.4Å):	2-dimensional
	Topological (pore opening > 6-ring):	2-dimensional

Note:

There is no channel along [010], it is only one 8-ring connection of channel A to the main 2-D channel system
