The PhD thesis concerns the synthesis of novel zeolite materials, investigation of their properties and their possible use in catalytic application. The work was focused on the two- dimensional zeolites. The thesis was worked out at the Department of Synthesis and Catalysis at J. Heyrovský Institute of Physical Chemistry, AS CR. Germanosilicate UTL (Si/Ge molar ratio 4.0-6.5) was found to undergo unique structural changes in the neutral or acid environment leading to transformation of its three-dimensional framework into two-dimensional layered material denoted IPC-1P. The UTL degradation, so called top-down synthesis, was enabled due to a presence of double-four-units (D4Rs), which can be seen as supporting units/pillars between the rigid layers. The preferential location of Ge in D4Rs makes the units an ideal target for their selective degradation. The interlayer space in lamellar IPC-1P was modified by swelling with long-organic chain surfactant (material IPC-1SW). To keep the interlayer space permanently expanded (up to 3.3 nm) the silica amorphous pillars were subsequently introduced (material IPC-1PI). The integrity of the layers and their preserved UTL character was confirmed in all members of IPC-1 family by HRTEM and electron diffraction measuring. The layers of IPC-1P were condensed back...
