Abstract
A method of cracking a hydrocarbon including contacting the hydrocarbon with a catalyst; where on the contacting, the hydrocarbon is cracked into a plurality of compounds, each having a smaller number of carbon atoms than the hydrocarbon. The catalyst includes an aluminosilicate zeolite, the aluminosilicate zeolite includes a weight ratio of SiOto AlOof 10-200:1. Particles of the aluminosilicate zeolite have a flake shape with an average longest dimension of 10 nanometers (nm) to 50 nm and the flakes are stacked on top of one another.
