An investigation was carried out to determine the extent of relations between various structural properties of zeolite frameworks and their experimental water adsorption capacities. For this aim, average water capacity values were determined for different zeolite frameworks by utilizing water adsorption capacities reported in the literature for related materials. It was observed that the theoretical surface areas and volumes available for water adsorption in zeolites as well as the fractal dimensions of these materials exhibited some correlation with their experimental adsorption capacities. The results might give an indication of the potential for development of different zeolite frameworks, regarding their water adsorption capacities. Analogue materials of known zeolite framework structures, with different chemical compositions, which may allow for relatively high water adsorption capacities, may be prepared for such an improvement. The investigations may also be informative for the development of new zeolite-like adsorbents with relatively high capacities.

进行了研究以确定沸石骨架的各种结构性质与其实验吸水能力之间的关系程度。为此，利用文献中报道的有关材料的吸水能力，确定了不同沸石骨架的平均水容量值。观察到可用于沸石中水吸附的理论表面积和体积以及这些材料的分形尺寸显示出与它们的实验吸附能力相关的一些信息。这些结果可能表明不同沸石骨架在水吸附能力方面的发展潜力。具有不同化学成分的已知沸石骨架结构的类似材料，可以准备相对较高的吸水能力的这种材料以进行这种改进。该研究对于开发具有相对较高容量的新型沸石状吸附剂也可能是有益的。
