In this study, a series of hierarchical β zeolites were prepared from the parent zeolites (β-60 and β-150) by one/two-step surfactant-templating method with cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) as the surfactant. The physicochemical properties of the hierarchical β zeolites were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), N₂ adsorption-desorption test, and NH₃ temperature-programmed desorption (NH₃-TPD) test. The results show that the mesopore volume of the hierarchical β zeolites prepared in one step was increased by more than 3 times, and the mesopore volume of hierarchical β zeolites prepared in two steps was increased by more than 1 time compared with the parent zeolite. Furthermore, the hydrocracking catalysts were prepared by loading WO₃ onto these hierarchical β zeolites, and their catalytic performance in the hydrocracking of tetralin to benzene (B), toluene (T), and xylene (X) was investigated. Taking β-60 as the parent zeolite, the mesopores of the hierarchically porous β zeolite obtained after one-step or two-step treatment were both disordered, and BTX yields reached 53% and 51%, respectively. However, taking β-150 as the parent zeolite, the mesopores of the hierarchical β zeolites prepared by the one-step method were disordered, while the mesopores of the samples prepared by the two-step method were ordered. The highest yield of BTX prepared by the one-step method was 46%, and that prepared by the two-step method was 50%. Therefore, the catalytic performance of hydrocracking catalyst prepared from hierarchical β zeolites was determined by the mesopore content and degree of order.
