The electrodeposition method was used to produce Zn2+ cation precursors, followed by the introduction of Zn2+ cation precursors to HBEA by the ion exchange technique. The introduction of Zn2+ cations slightly changed the specific surface area and crystallinity of HBEA. IR, XPS and solid state MAS NM...
