Speciation, Structural Refinement, and Distribution of Ti Sites in Titanium Silicalite‐1 From 47/49Ti NMR Crystallography at 28.2 Tesla
Titanium silicalite-1 (TS-1), used in industrial selective oxidation processes, depends on specific, yet still unresolved Ti sites, dispersed within the framework of an MFI-zeolite. Applying high fie....
