    • 1995, J. Weitkamp, H. G. Karge, Zeolite Science 1994: Recent Progress and Discussions, page 324:
      The spectroscopic characteristics of the vanadium species in our vanadosilicates are to some extent similar to those of vanadium grafted on silica. However, we see no reasons why large differences would be expected.
    • 1999, Michael M. J. Treacy, Proceedings of the 12th International Zeolite Conference, page 878:
      Synthesis of vanadosilicates
      The samples were synthesized by conventional hydrothermal techniques utilising tetraethyl orthosilicate as the silica source and vanadyl sulfate as the vanadium source.
