Synthesis of platinum nanostructures using zeolites
(2011)
Due to their outstanding and tunable electronic properties, platinum nanowires have the potential to be used in the development of advanced devices. The quantum confinement effect of the electrons and the increased surface ...
Molecular simulation studies for the templated synthesis of ultrathin metal nanowires in zeolites
(2012)
In the present work geometric optimizations, Metropolis Monte Carlo, and molecular dynamics simulations were done to study the feasibility of synthesizing Ni and Pt nanowires inside the pores of one dimensional zeolite ...
Hierarchical porous carbon-zeolite composites materials for the adsorption of contaminants of emerging concern from water
(2021-03-23)
The steady and unnoticed rise of contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) into different water sources results in a tremendous challenge regarding its efficient, systematic, and coherent mitigation. Its recalcitrant presence, ...
Synthesis and characterization of porous inorganic adsorbents for the removal of PPCPs via complexation and size exclusion principles
(2013)
Pharmaceutical and personal care products (PPCPs) are considered emerging contaminants that present great challenges for their remediation from water systems. Unfortunately, traditional water treatment methods are not ...
Synthesis, characterization and detemplation of thermally unstable 3-D Metal-Substituted Aluminophosphates.
(2009)
The extent of the detemplation process in Me-SBE (Me = Co2+, Mg2+ and Mn2+) aluminophosphates was investigated. Hydrothermal synthesis conditions were optimized to obtain materials with minimal phase impurities. SEM analysis ...
DFT analysis on structure-property relationships of metal-substituted zeolites
(2018-05)
Metal-modified zeolites have proven to be effective catalysts for various important reactions involving the transformation of biomass-derived molecules and the conversion of greenhouse gases, such as CO2 and CH4. In this ...
Atomic pair distribution study of the growth of Pt nanoparticles in zeolites
(2016)
The Pair Distribution Function (PDF) is a total scattering method used to study the local structure of a material and yields a function in real space with peaks that represent the interatomic distances. In this work, we ...
