Provided are a pentasil-type zeolite that is less likely to adsorb water compared to conventional zeolites and has excellent strength when used as a molded body, and a method for producing the pentasil-type zeolite.
A pentasil-type zeolite having a water adsorption amount of 4.0 g/100 g-zeolite or less under the conditions of 25° C. and a relative humidity of 90% and having a major axis diameter of primary particles of from 0.2 μm to 4.0 μm, and a method for producing the pentasil-type zeolite.
