Download or read book Ordered mesoporous silica COK 12 mesoscale tailoring upscaling continuous synthesis and application in the oxidative coupling of methane written by Colmenares, Maria and published by Universitätsverlag der TU Berlin. This book was released on 2018-07-19 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ordered mesoporous silica (OMS) materials are a family of silica nanomaterials with pores ranging in size from 2 to 50 nm which are arranged periodically within the silica matrix. They have expanding applications in various fields of research, such as drug delivery, adsorption, separation and catalysis. COK-12 is an OMS produced by the soft-templating method, using the block copolymer P123 as a structure-directing agent. The synthesis takes place at room temperature under mild reaction conditions. In comparison with the most widely known OMS, the synthesis of COK-12 is more time efficient, inexpensive and environmentally friendly, yielding a material analogous to the well-known SBA-15. This thesis encompasses investigations regarding the production of the ordered mesoporous silica material (OMS) known as COK-12, in terms of upscaling of the synthesis and tailoring of the size and shape of its characteristic hexagonal pore structure. Batch upscaling of the synthesis yielded a material with nearly identical properties to that of the original COK-12. Upscaling of the COK-12 synthesis was also studied in continuous mode. The installation and operation of a continuous COK-12 production unit was carried out with the aim to determine the possibility of large-scale production of COK-12 with consistent material properties. COK-12 was produced in continuous mode by varying the time of aging of the COK-12 slurry and the flow rate of the feed streams, yielding materials with properties nearly identical to those of the original COK-12. COK-12 was used as a support for the Na2WO4-Mn/SiO2 catalyst for the oxidative coupling of methane reaction in various forms (powder, granular produced by pressing and monolithic), showing promising results comparable to the enhanced activity of the catalyst supported on the SBA-15. The advantage of using COK-12 over other OMS materials is that the facile nature of COK-12 synthesis makes it a viable candidate for industrial production of the Na2WO4-Mn/SiO2 catalyst, if paired with appropriate pelletizing and preparation method. The introduction of hexane and polypropylene glycol (PPG) as micellar swelling agents into the original COK-12 synthesis was studied in order to tailor the mesoporous structure of the system. Hexane was used as a micelle expander and as an agent to produce silica mesocellular foams, with “ink-bottle” shaped pores with a larger diameter than that of the original COK-12. By adding PPG into the synthesis, the shift of the mesostructure of COK-12 from 2D hexagonal to a multilamellar vesicular configuration was studied, resulting in the progressive formation of this type of material with increasing concentration of PPG. The flexibility of the COK-12 synthesis in terms of upscaling and tailoring of the mesostructure was examined throughout this work, with an aim to contribute to the existing and expanding knowledge regarding more versatile, sustainable and possibly industrial OMS production. Ordered Mesoporous Silica (OMS) gehört zu der Familie der Silica-Nanomaterialien mit periodisch angeordneten Mesoporen im Größenbereich zwischen 2 und 50 nm. Diese werden zunehmend in unterschiedlichen Forschungsfeldern wie Medikamentenfreisetzung, Adsorption, Separation und Katalyse eingesetzt. COK-12 ist ein OMS, das über eine Soft-Templating-Methode unter Nutzung des Blockcopolymers P123 als strukturbestimmenden Zusatz erzeugt wird. Die Synthese erfolgt bei Raumtemperatur unter milden Reaktionsbedingungen. Im Vergleich zu den am weitesten bekannten OMS-Materialien ist die Synthese von COK-12 zeiteffizient, günstig und umweltfreundlich. Dabei wird ein OMS-Material analog zu dem bereits etablierten SBA-15 erzeugt. Die vorliegende Dissertation umfasst die Synthese eines als COK-12 bekannten OMS-Materials, dem Scale-Up der Synthese sowie die Anpassung und Modifizierung der ursprünglich hexagonal-angeordneten Mesoporen bezüglich Porengrößen und Porenform. Das diskontinuierliche Scale-Up im Batchprozess führt zu nahezu identischen Materialeigenschaften im Vergleich zu dem ursprünglichen COK-12. Ein Scale-Up der COK-12-Synthese wurde zusätzlich im kontinuierlichen Prozess erprobt. Dessen Installation und Operation wurde mit dem Ziel durchgeführt, um die Möglichkeit einer Produktion von großen Mengen an COK-12 mit einheitlichen Materialeigenschaften zu validieren. Durch eine Variation der Alterungszeit als auch der Fließrate der Lösungen konnte COK-12 im kontinuierlichen Prozess mit nahezu identischen Eigenschaften wie das ursprüngliche COK-12 erzeugt werden. COK-12 wurde erfolgreich in verschiedenen Formen (Pulver, Pressgranulate und Monolithe) als Trägermaterial für Na2WO4-Mn/SiO2-Katalysatoren für die Oxidative Kopplung von Methan eingesetzt. Die resultierenden Aktivitäten ist sind vergleichbar mit denen des auf SBA-15-geträgerten Katalysators Der Vorteil der Nutzung von COK-12 im Vergleich zu anderen OMS-Materialien liegt in der vergleichsweise simplen COK-12-Synthese, weshalb es ein interessanter Kandidat für eine mögliche industrielle Produktion des Na2WO4-Mn/SiO2-Katalysators ist, wenn wenn geeignete Pelletierungs- und Herstellungsmethoden angewendet werden. Die Zugabe von Hexan und Polypropylenglykol (PPG) zur Aufweitung der Mizellen in der ursprünglichen COK-12-Synthese wurde untersucht, um die mesoporöse Struktur des Systems zu variieren. Hexan wurde eingesetzt zur Aufweitung der Mizellen und als Hilfsmittel zur Produktion mesozellulärer Silica-Schäume mit „ink-bottle“-förmigen Poren sowie vergrößertem Porendurchmesser im Vergleich zu denen des ursprünglichen COK-12. Durch die Zugabe von PPG in die Synthese verändert sich die Mesoporenstruktur der ursprünglichen hexagonalen 2D-Struktur zu einer multilamellaren vesikulären Anordnung, die mit zunehmender PPG-Konzentration verstärkt wird. Die Flexibilität der COK-12-Synthese wurde in dieser Arbeit in Bezug auf ein Scale-Up und eine Porenmodifikation weitreichend untersucht, mit dem Ziel das existierende Wissen in Bezug auf eine vielseitige, nachhaltige sowie eine potentielle Industrieproduktion der COK-12-Synthese zu entwickeln.

Download or read book Synthesis Characterization and Structure Control of Ordered Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles written by Teeraporn Suteewong and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ordered mesoporous silica materials are characterized by uniform and tunable pore size, high surface area and large pore volume. In particular, nano-sized ordered mesoporous silica particles have drawn interest from several fields, including biorelated areas, because silica is benign, possesses chemical stability and can be integrated with other materials. Structural aspects, such as pore connectivity, geometry and pore size are known to govern materials performance. Extensive efforts have been devoted to synthesize mesoporous silica particles with different structures, functionalities and sizes. In contrast, only a small number of studies so far have concentrated on the formation mechanism of these particles. This is hence the focus of the present dissertation. The first part reports on the synthesis and characterization of ordered mesoporous silica nanoparticles with and without embedded magnetic nanoparticles. The formation mechanism of silica nanocomposites is investigated by capturing particle formation at different time points during the synthesis. A combination of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and small angle x-ray scattering (SAXS) is used to characterize the structure evolution of resulting materials. Incorporating organic moieties into the silica matrix provides additional functionalities to ordered mesoporous silica nanoparticles. However, it often leads to disordered pore structure or pore blockage. The second part demonstrates the preparation of aminated and ordered mesoporous silica nanoparticles using a cocondensation method. Increasing the amount of aminosilane in the synthesis feed causes a structural transition of organically modified particles from hexagonal to cubic. Pore size of ordered mesoporous silica and aminated ordered mesoporous silica nanoparticles can be tailored by the addition of a swelling agent during the synthesis. The structural transformation from hexagonal to cubic is also observed in the latter case, albeit at different amino silane concentrations. The final part reports on the internalization of nanoparticles into cells. Fluorescent aminated mesoporous silica nanoparticles are first prepared and then coated with poly(ethylene glycol) to improve particle stability and lower protein adsorption. Dye-labeled aminated mesoporous silica nanoparticles are spontaneously internalized by cells.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Porous materials are of scientific and technological importance because of the presence of voids of controllable dimensions at the atomic, molecular, and nanometer scales, enabling them to discriminate and interact with molecules and clusters. Interestingly the big deal about this class of materials is about the “nothingness” within — the pore space. International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) classifies porous materials into three categories — micropores of less than 2 nm in diameter, mesopores between 2 and 50 nm, and macropores of greater than 50 nm. In this book, nanoporous materials are defined as those porous materials with pore diameters less than 100 nm.Over the last decade, there has been an ever increasing interest and research effort in the synthesis, characterization, functionalization, molecular modeling and design of nanoporous materials. The main challenges in research include the fundamental understanding of structure-property relations and tailor-design of nanostructures for specific properties and applications. Research efforts in this field have been driven by the rapid growing emerging applications such as biosensor, drug delivery, gas separation, energy storage and fuel cell technology, nanocatalysis and photonics. These applications offer exciting new opportunities for scientists to develop new strategies and techniques for the synthesis and applications of these materials.This book provides a series of systematic reviews of the recent developments in nanoporous materials. It covers the following topics: (1) synthesis, processing, characterization and property evaluation; (2) functionalization by physical and/or chemical treatments; (3) experimental and computational studies on fundamental properties, such as catalytic effects, transport and adsorption, molecular sieving and biosorption; (4) applications, including photonic devices, catalysis, environmental pollution control, biological molecules separation and isolation, sensors, membranes, hydrogen and energy storage, etc./a
