Ex situ and in situ spectroscopy was used to identify the kinetics of processes during the formation of the faujasite (FAU) zeolite lattice from a hydrous gel. Using solid-state 27Al magic angle spinning (MAS) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), the autocatalytic transformation from the amorphous gel...
