Wide pores for wide applications : The catalytic properties of SSZ‐53, an extra‐large‐pore high‐silica zeolite, were explored by using ethylbenzene disproportionation and the isomerization and hydrocracking of n ‐decane as test reactions. High activity together with a very open channel system render this zeolite an attractive candidate as catalyst for applications in petroleum refining.
