Summary The adsorption and desorption isotherms of water vapor are drawn at 25°C for dealuminated HY zeolites upon framework Si/Al ratio. The isotherms are compared to that of the parent NaY zeolite. The isotherm changes in shape from the type I to the type IV with an hysteresis loop changing from the type H 4 to the type H 2 , as increases the Si/Al ratio. The POLANYI-DUBININ theory is used to determine the micropore volume accessible to water. It decreases with increasing Si/Al ratios, down to zero at a Si/Al ratio of 35. Such a result is accounted by the adsorption on the hydrophilic centers which are the cations (H + ) associated with the structural aluminium ions, each cation being coordinated by 8H 2 O.
