Hierarchically porous carbon derived from polymers and biomass: effect of interconnected pores on ene
Hierarchically porous carbons (HPCs) with 1D to 3D network are attracting vast interest due to their potential technological application profile ranging from electrochemical capacitors, lithium ion batteries, solar cells, hydrogen storage systems, photonic material, fuel cells, sorbent for toxic gas separation and so o...
Mesoporous Titanium Phosphate Molecular Sieves with Ion-Exchange Capacity
Novel open framework molecular sieves, titanium(IV) phosphates named, i.e., TCM-7 and -8 (Toyota Composite Materials, numbers 7 and 8), with new mesoporous cationic framework topologies obtained by using both cationic and anionic surfactants are reported. The 31 P MAS NMR, UVvisible absorption, and XANES data suggest t...
Organically Modified Titanium-Rich Ti-MCM-41, Efficient Catalysts for Epoxidation Reactions
Highly ordered, titanium-rich organically modified Ti-MCM-41 materials have been synthesized at 413 K using a mixture of organo-triethoxysilane and tetraethyl orthosilicate. Various organic substituents on Ti-MCM-41 used in the present study are methyl, vinyl, allyl, 3-chloropropyl, pentyl, and phenyl. The highest amou...
Unprecedented CO2 uptake over highly porous N-doped activated carbon monoliths prepared by physical a
Highly porous N-doped activated carbon monoliths (ACMs) are fabricated by carbonization and physical activation of mesoporous polyacrylonitrile (PAN) monoliths in the presence of CO 2 . The monoliths exhibit exceptionally high CO 2 uptake; 5.14 mmol g 1 at ambient pressure and temperature and 11.51 mmol g 1 at ambient ...
Soft templating strategies for the synthesis of mesoporous materials: Inorganic, organic–inorganic
With the discovery of MCM-41 by Mobil researchers in 1992 the journey of the research on mesoporous materials started and in the 21st century this area of scientific investigation have extended into numerous branches, many of which contribute significantly in emerging areas like catalysis, energy, environment and biome...
