Abstract

This work reports the synthesis of amorphous acidic aluminosilicates (AAS) possessing Brønsted acidic sites and textural properties similar to amorphous aluminosilicates (ASAs). AAS catalyzes various reactions more effectively than state-of-the-art zeolites and ASAs, including waste plastic conversion to hydrocarbons and CO<sub>2</sub> to fuel conversion. Solid-state NMR studies provide a molecular-level understanding of the material's acidity.
