Sumario:[EN] A new route to obtain pillared, disordered or desilicated MWW-type zeolites was developed assisted by quaternary ammonium surfactants with different hydrocarbon tail size acting as swelling agents (C(12)TA(+), C(I6)TA(+), C(18)TA(+)) and TPA(+) both exchanged to their hydroxide forms instead of only one swelling agent (C(n)TA(+) or TPA(+)) in hydroxide form. Effect of surfactant concentration and swelling conditions were determinant to obtain MWW-type zeolites with different lamellar organization and spatial distribution of individual zeolitic layers. Specifically, soft swelling at 25 degrees C with C(12)TA(+) preserved layer structure reaching a final disordered/pillared structure while pillared structures are obtained in the case of materials swollen with C(16)TA(+) and C(18)TA(+). Aggressive swelling processes at 80 degrees C favored desilication, damaging the layers structure in case of C(12)TA(+) while pillared materials are obtained after swollen with C(16)TA(+) and C(18)TA(+) surfactants. It was proved that both swelling agents in hydroxide forms combining with swelling and pillaring procedure influenced on physico-chemical and morphological nature of MWW-type materials due to the particular conditions used. The obtained derivative MWW zeolites with different morphology, order and accessibility levels were firstly evaluated by catalytic dehydration of fructose to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) showing superior activity compared to beta zeolites reported in literature.
