We report here a general synthetic strategy to encapsulate metal clusters within zeolites during their hydrothermal crystallization. Precursors to metal clusters are stabilized against their premature colloidal precipitation as hydroxides during zeolite crystallization using bifunctional (3-mercaptopropyl)trimethoxysilane ligands. Mercapto (-SH) groups in these ligands interact with cationic metal centers, while alkoxysilane moieties form covalent Si-O-Si or Si-O-Al linkages that promote zeolite
Free-radical polymerization inside mesoporous silica has been investigated in order to open a route to functional polymer-silica composite materials with well-defined mesoporosity. Various vinyl monomers, such as styrene, chloromethyl styrene, 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate, and methacrylic acid, were polymerized after impregnation into mesoporous silicas with various structures, which were synthesized using polyalkylene oxide-type block copolymers. The location of the polymers was systematically c
A direct hydrothermal assembly process was developed to synthesize mesoporous aluminophosphates that are constructed with crystalline microporous frameworks, by the addition of organosilane surfactants into the conventional synthesis composition for crystalline microporous aluminophosphates.
An ethylenediamine-grafted Y zeolite effectively adsorbs CO<sub>2</sub>from a wet flue gas and it is highly regenerable through a temperature swing adsorption (TSA) process.
Exchange for the better: Mesoporous sodalite and NaA zeolite exchanged with Pd(2+) exhibit remarkably high activity and reusability in C-C coupling reactions under aerobic atmosphere. It is proposed that the catalytic reactions are mediated by a molecular Pd(0) species generated in situ within the pores (see picture), which is oxidized back to Pd(2+) by O(2), preventing the formation of catalytically inactive Pd(0) agglomerates.
The effects of KOH activation on pore structure of ordered mesoporous carbons were analyzed by transmission electron microscopy, powder X-ray diffraction and argon adsorption. The activation led to remarkable increases in micropore volume and BET surface area up to 1.0 mL g−1 and 2700 m2 g−1, at the expense of the mesostructural order. The resultant carbons with various microporosity and mesoporosity were tested for room-temperature adsorption of hydrogen under high pressure. The adsorption data
