The physico-chemical properties were investigated by XRD, 29Si and 27Al MAS NMR, BET, SEM, NH3-TPD and FT-IR spectroscopy of pyridine adsorbed. The activity of catalytic of these catalysts has been carried out over the liquid-phase hydration of ¦Á-pinene to give ¦Á-terpineol as a major product and hydrocarbon as a minor products. %K TCA/ZHY %K ¦Á¨Cpinene %K ¦Á terpineol %K hydration. %U http://www.ijcea.org/papers/289-A00004.pdf
