Microporous nitrogen-incorporated SAPO-34 molecular sieves were synthesized by thermal post-treatment of SAPO-34 in flowing dry ammonia at elevated temperatures. The results of property characterized by DRIFTS of CO 2 adsorption and CO 2 –TPD showed that basic sites existed on the surface of nitridized samples probably due to the presence of nitrogen-containing species incorporating into the framework of SAPO-34 molecular sieves. The changes in structure of nitrogen-incorporated samples were investigated by 27 Al MAS NMR, 31 P MAS NMR spectra X-ray diffraction and BET surface area measurements. It was found that nitrogen-incorporated SAPO-34 still kept good crystallinity and high specific surface area of precursors. And N-containing species had incorporated into the framework of samples during nitridation, in which N atom presumably bounded to Al and P atoms formed N-containing groups, but unfortunately some of them were not ascribed.
