Fibrous silica BEA zeolite (FBEA) was synthesized by microemulsion method and tested for benzene methylation. The FESEM and N2physisorption verified that the FBEA exhibited a dendrimeric silica fiber morphology with large surface area and high ratio of mesopores and micropore volume. While the FTIR...
