Single-crystal elastic constants of the zeolite analcime measured by inelastic X-ray scattering
Graphical abstract
Single-crystal elastic constants have been measured from large (∼1 mm) crystals of the cubic zeolite analcime, , using inelastic X-ray scattering, demonstrating the rather isotropic elastic behaviour of this complex material.

2011, Microporous and Mesoporous MaterialsCitation Excerpt :On the other hand, the synthesis of larger zeolite crystals is difficult to be achieved on a larger than a laboratory scale. The application of such crystals is limited to fundamental studies of zeolite structure, diffusion properties and growth process [1–4]. Large zeolite crystals might also find applications as hosts for guest molecules (alignments of dye molecules), ions, and clusters for optical, electric and magnetic microdevices [5–7].
