- (Kirchner, 2000) found the aluminum phospate zeolite AlPO$_{4}$-53 in three states:
- As-synthesized AlPO$_{4}$-53(A) [24(AlPO$_{4}$)·8.5CH$_{3}$NH$_{2}$·14H$_{2}$O] includes methyl and ammonium ions as well as water.
- Orthorhombic AlPO$_{4}$-53(B) is calcined (heated below the melting temperature) to remove those ions and molecules, leaving the framework structure.
- Monoclinic AlPO$_{4}$-53(C) (this structure) is produced by heating AlPO$_{4}$-53(B) above 700$^\circ$C.
