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.

Book Synthesis of Ordered Mesoporous Materials Via Microwave Processing and Highly Heteroatom Doped Ordered Mesoporous Carbons for Energy Storage

Download or read book Synthesis of Ordered Mesoporous Materials Via Microwave Processing and Highly Heteroatom Doped Ordered Mesoporous Carbons for Energy Storage written by Yanfeng Xia and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ordered mesoporous materials, with pore diameter between 2 nm to 50 nm, have drawn researchers interests due to their superb properties including large surface area, uniform and adjustable pore architecture and good mechanical property, which allow a variety of different applications of the mesoporous materials, including catalysis, separation, purification, sensing and energy storage. Researchers have also reported different functionalization strategies of these mesoporous materials to improve the properties, such as improving electrochemical property by heteroatom doping of mesoporous carbon. One generalized synthetic strategy to synthesize ordered mesoporous materials is soft templating method. The functionalization of these mesoporous materials, such as heteroatom doping, can sometimes to lead ordered porous structure collapse, which is usually due to structure deformation during high temperature treatment. For instance, it is challenging to synthesize ordered mesoporous metal oxide with high crystalline pore wall with soft-templating method, as the growth of the crystals can deform the ordered porous structure. Meanwhile, it is difficult to synthesize ordered mesoporous carbon with high doping level (>10 at%) via soft-templating strategy as well, since the rapid doping reaction at high temperature can lead to ordered structure collapse due to the high vapor pressure generated by doping reactions. Here, we demonstrate several facile synthetic routes to fabricate highly crystalline ordered mesoporous metal oxide and heteroatom doped ordered mesoporous carbon. The application of the nitrogen doped mesoporous carbons in energy storage has also been discussed in this dissertation.Ordered mesoporous manganese oxide has been reported to be useful in energy storage due to its good electrochemical property, as the transition metal manganese has half-filled 3d orbital, which allows it to donate or accept electrons. However, synthesizing ordered mesoporous manganese oxide with high crystallinity with soft-templating strategy is challenging, as the crystal formation during thermal treatment can deform the ordered porous structure. In this dissertation, the synthesis of ordered mesoporous crystalline manganese oxide films is achieved by microwave-assisted processing to convert manganese carbonate precursor to the oxide, remove the polymeric template and crystallize the Mn3O4, all within 1 min. The microwave heating in this case is primarily induced by the microwave cross-section of the substrate (silicon wafer), together with the absorption of microwaves by manganese oxide to provide local energy, which can provide energy for nucleation/crystallization. Conversely, heating manganese carbonate in a muffle furnace at an analogous surface temperature leads to nanostructure collapse with low crystallinity. Apart from the synthesis of highly crystalline ordered mesoporous metal oxide, we also demonstrate the functionalization of ordered mesoporous carbon via heteroatom doping. Doped carbons can exhibit enhanced electronic, electrochemical and mechanical properties compared with un-doped carbons. These properties enable their use in applications, such as photovoltaics, catalysis and energy storage. For these applications, nano porosity and high heteroatom doping are generally desirable due to large surface area provided by nanoporous structure and improved properties contributed by heteroatom doping. However, it is challenging to achieve high content of heteroatoms doped carbons as well as maintaining the nanoporous structure. One common method of doping is to use heteroatom containing polymer precursors and carbonizing to synthesize doped carbon, where heteroatom content is limited by the number density of heteroatoms in the precursors. Additionally, during calcination, the nanoporous structure can collapse due to the contraction of pores. In this dissertation, a generalized synthetic strategy for highly doped ordered mesoporous carbons is reported. High concentrations of heteroatom doping in ordered mesoporous carbon is achieved by infiltration of molten dopants into silica reinforced mesoporous crosslinked polymer (phenolic resol) bi-continuous framework and subsequent carbonization. This method is demonstrated to generate ordered mesoporous carbons with high heteroatom content (> 10%) for a wide variety of elements including nitrogen, boron, sulfur and phosphorus, with ordered structure preserved. With the generalized synthetic route, nitrogen doped multi-shell hollow carbon are fabricated as a matrix material for Lithium-sulfur batteries. The hierarchical hollow structure and chemical decoration (heteroatom doping) of carbon framework can help to suppress polysulfide shuttling, while the macropore provides large pore volume to increase sulfur loading. The nitrogen doped sample shows better cycle stability compared with un-doped sample. Given that this hollow structure with a macropore can increase sulfur loading, the specific capacity is much lower compared with other cases where the pores are much smaller because of the low conductivity of sulfur.In addition, we also systematically investigate how nitrogen doping influences the rate that molten sulfur can infiltrate and the overall extent of pore filling of highly ordered mesoporous doped carbons via in-situ small angle x-ray scattering (SAXS). Nitrogen doping introduces polar bonds to the carbon framework, which can slow down the diffusion of nonpolar sulfur molecules into porous carbon. These in-situ SAXS measurements provide insights about kinetics information for diffusion of sulfur into mesopores and how the surface chemistry of nitrogen doped carbon can significantly hinder the infiltration of the mesopores by sulfur. In summary, this dissertation focuses on the functionalization of ordered mesoporous material without losing the ordered structure, as well as the application of nitrogen doped carbon in energy storage.

Book Synthesis of Ordered Mesoporous Silica and Alumina with Controlled Macroscopic Morphologies

Download or read book Synthesis of Ordered Mesoporous Silica and Alumina with Controlled Macroscopic Morphologies written by and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis investigates the synthesis of ordered mesoporous silica and alumina materials with unique microstructures and different morphologies using novel approaches based on template-assisted synthesis and chemical vapor deposition (CVD) techniques and their potential use in polymer reaction application. Template-assisted growth of mesoporous silica under acidic and quiescent conditions at an oil-water interface can generate mesostructured silica with fibrous and non-fibrous morphologies. Fibers are obtained due to slow and one-dimensional diffusion of precursors through the interface. Variation in conditions can alter the axial growth of silica and yield non-fibrous shapes. Fibers grow from their base attached to the interface and coalesce to form fibers with larger diameters. Gas transport in silica fibers is governed by Knudsen and surface diffusion mechanisms. Surface diffusion contributes to 40% of the flow reflecting highly smooth pores. Real Knudsen and surface diffusivities are in the order of 10E-3 and 10E-5 cm2̂/s respectively. The one-dimensional mesopores are 45 time longer than the fiber length and align helically around the fiber axis with a pitch of 1.05 micron. Mesoporous silica membranes were prepared by a novel counter diffusion self assembly (CDSA) approach. This approach introduces the precursors from the opposite sides of a hydrophobic supports and yields silica plugs grown within its pores. Silica plugs grow with thickness of 0.5 mm and have a mesoporous structure. Such mechanically strong membrane is potential in protein separation and polymer reaction applications. Mesoporous membranes with controlled pore microstructure can be also obtained using cyclic CVD modification of straight 20 nm pore alumina membranes. Leaving residual of precursors in the pore after introduction of each precursor causes deposition of alumina in a fractal structure suitable for gas separation. Purging the pore after each precursor causes deposition in atomic layer with cylindrical mesopores suitable for membrane reaction applications. Titanocene-supported MCM-41 was used as molecular extruder for preparation of 60 nm polyethylene nascent fibers with extended-chain crystalline structures. The nascent fibers aggregate into 1-30 ư m microfibers which further aggregate into fiber bundles. Mechanical properties, measured for the first time, demonstrated an improved tensile strength of the polyethylene product compared to commercial polyethylene fibers.
