Sodium silicate‐aluminate aqueous systems with various contents of Na 2 O and SiO 2 containing triethanolamine were crystallized. Optimum Na 2 O and SiO 2 contents have been observed to give NaA and NaX zeolite crystals with dimensions up to 80 μm. For NaA crystals the values are: ∼ 3.5 mass% Na 2 O, ∼ 1.65 mass% SiO 2 ; for NaX crystals ∼ 2.5 mass% Na 2 O, ∼ 1.5 mass% SiO 2 . – The effect of other additives on crystal size is proved. – The results are discussed in terms of nucleation and growth, reaction rate, and supersaturation. Supposition are made to gain larger crystals by maintaining the excess of solute over a longer period of time.
