Book Synthesis and Characterization of Ordered Mesoporous Inorganic Nanocomposite Materials

Download or read book Synthesis and Characterization of Ordered Mesoporous Inorganic Nanocomposite Materials written by Pasquale Fernando Fulvio and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ordered mesoporous inorganic nanocomposite materials were synthesized by using soft- and hard-templating strategies. Ordered mesoporous silicas (OMSs) were obtained by soft templating, whereas ordered mesoporous carbons (OMCs) and mesoporous mixed metal oxides were prepared by hard templating. Also, post-synthesis modification of OMSs was carried out by deposition of mixed metal oxides, carbon and nickel. The resulting materials were characterized by nitrogen and argon adsorption, thermogravimetric analysis, small angle X-ray scattering, powder X-ray diffraction, scanning and transmission electronic microscopy, elemental analysis, temperature programmed desorption and diffuse reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The first part of this dissertation is devoted to the optimization of experimental conditions such as time, temperature, pH and salt addition for the synthesis of several OMSs: SBA-15, SBA-16 and FDU-1. The size of ordered mesopores, surface area and pore volume of the aforementioned OMSs were tailored by adjusting the synthesis time and temperature as well as by combining solvent extraction and calcination for the template removal. A further improvement of SBA-16 and FDU-1 was achieved by using low acid concentration and adding NaCl addition, which resulted in OMSs with large cage diameters and uniform pore openings. Subsequently, the SBA-15 and SBA-16 materials were employed as hard templates for the synthesis of OMCs, using iron chloride as a catalyst for in situ polymerization of pyrrole. After carbonization and silica dissolution, the nitrogen-doped OMCs with tunable mesopores, graphitic domains and magnetic iron-iron carbide nanoparticles were obtained. Also, the pore walls of SBA-15 were modified with 2, 3-dihydroxy naphthalene, which was converted into thin carbon film. The impregnation of the resulting SBA-15-carbon nanocomposites with nickel salts afforded materials with "pea-pod" distribution of nickel nanoparticles. In addition, the pore walls of SBA-15 were modified with metal alkoxides of Al, Ti, and Zr by using a partially hydrolytic sol-gel process, which depending on the experimental conditions resulted in the deposition of thin films and nanoparticles of these oxides. Finally, OMCs were used as hard templates for the synthesis of mesoporous iron-doped alumina-titania mixed oxides, which exhibited high Lewis acidity and partially retained the structural symmetry of the templates used.

Book Synthesis  Characterization and Physicochemical Properties of Platinum Naboparticles on Ordered Mesoporous Carbon

Download or read book Synthesis Characterization and Physicochemical Properties of Platinum Naboparticles on Ordered Mesoporous Carbon written by Waheed Saban and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study SBA-15 mesoporous silica template was synthesized and used as a sacrificial template in the preparation of ordered mesoporous carbon material. A chemical vapour deposition (CVD) technique using LPG or alternatively sucrose, pyrolyzed upon a mesoporous Si matrix were used to produce nanostructured ordered mesoporous carbon (OMC) with graphitic character after removing the Si template. The sucrose method was found to be a suitable route for preparing OMC. The OMC was used as a conductive three dimensional porous support for depositing catalytic nanophase Pt metal. Deposition of Pt nanoparticles on OMC was accomplished using a CVD method with Pt(acac)2 as a precursor. The synthesized nano-composite materials were characterized by several techniques such as, HRTEM, HRSEM, EDS, XRD, BET, TGA, FT-IR and CV.

Book Synthesis  Characterization  and Application of Surface functionalized Ordered Mesoporous Nanoparticles

Download or read book Synthesis Characterization and Application of Surface functionalized Ordered Mesoporous Nanoparticles written by and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dissertation begins with Chapter 1, which is a general introduction of the fundamental synthesis of mesoporous silica materials, the selective functionlization of mesoporous silica materials, and the synthesis of nanostructured porous materials via nanocasting. In Chapter 2, the thermo-responsive polymer coated mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) was synthesized via surface-initated polymerization and exhibited unique partition activities in a biphasic solution with the thermally induced change. In Chapter 3, the monodispersed spherical MSN with different mesoporous structure (MCM-48) was developed and employed as a template for the synthesis of mesoporous carbon nanoparticles (MCN) via nanocasting. MCN was demonstrated for the delivery of membrane impermeable chemical agents inside the cells. The cellular uptake efficiency and biocompabtibility of MCN with human cervical cancer cells were also investigated. In addition to the biocompabtibility of MCN, MCN was demonstrated to support Rh-Mn nanoparticles for catalytic reaction in Chapter 4. Owing to the unique mesoporosity, Rh-Mn nanoparticles can be well distributed inside the mesoporous structure and exhibited interesting catalytic performance on CO hydrogenation. In Chapter 5, the synthesis route of the aforementioned MCM-48 MSN was discussed and investigated in details and other metal oxide nanoparticles were also developed via nanocasting by using MCM-48 MSN as a template. At last, there is a general conclusion summarized in Chapter 6.

Book Synthesis  Adsorption and Structural Properties of Carbons with Uniform and Ordered Mesopores

Download or read book Synthesis Adsorption and Structural Properties of Carbons with Uniform and Ordered Mesopores written by Kamil Gierszal and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Various novel carbon mesostructures were explored with respect to their synthesis methods, adsorption properties as well as structural properties. Several important problems were studied including the structural ordering of ordered mesoporous carbons (OMCs), selection of carbon precursors, controlling the pore size, specific surface area and total pore volume of the resulting carbons. Ordered mesoporous silicas (OMSs) and silica colloidal templates were employed as hard templates. The obtained results have been divided into two major chapters dealing with: OMCs synthesized by using OMSs as templates and the mesoporous carbons templated by silica colloidal materials. The first aforementioned chapter presents the following problems. Two different OMSs, SBA-15 and KIT-6, were employed as hard templates and various carbon precursors including mesophase pitches of different softening points were used for the purpose to investigate the relation between the structure of OMCs and their adsorption properties. One of the most important conclusions was that the softening temperature of mesophase pitch clearly affected the structural properties of the resulting OMCs through the formation of different amount of micropores. The other studies involved the synthesis and characterization of OMCs templated by the SBA-16 silica with precisely controlled pore sizes. For this purpose, various carbon precursors were used - sucrose, acenaphthene and furfuryl alcohol. Two types of OMCs were prepared - the fully-filled inverse carbon replicas and the film-type inverse replicas of the SBA-16 silica. The second chapter deals with mesoporous carbons templated by silica colloidal crystals (SCCs) and disordered colloidal silicas. These templates served for the synthesis of mesoporous carbons from mesophase pitch as carbon precursors. The SCC was formed by evaporation method using the aqueous suspension of 46 nm uniform silica colloids, whereas the same method applied to 16 and 31 nm silica nanoparticles afforded only disordered aggregates. Application of these templates showed for the first time that it is possible to achieve the faithful inverse carbon replica of the well-ordered SCC composed of such small colloids. The other problem was devoted to graphitization of SCC-templated OMC. Here, well-graphitizable mesophase pitch as carbon source and SCC formed from 70 nm nanoparticles were employed. Carbonization at 1000 °C and subsequent graphitization of OMC at temperature as high as 2500 °C allowed one to obtain an excellent quality porous carbon ordered at nanoscale and at molecular level. The most important achievement reported in this dissertation was the synthesis of mesoporous carbons with extremely large pore volume and narrow pore size distribution. The structure was synthesized with the use of colloidal silica and resorcinol-crotonaldehyde as template and carbon precursor, respectively. The large pore volume could be obtained by formation of uniform thin carbon film on the pore walls of the aggregates of silica nanoparticles. Such prepared carbons with uniform mesopores reached the highest ever reported value of the total pore volume of 9̃ cm3/g. Also, new mathematical relations between basic adsorption parameters were derived. Various measuring techniques were used in order to characterize the adsorption and structural properties of the studied nanoporous materials. Among them were nitrogen adsorption, elemental analysis, powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), transmission and scanning electron microscopy (TEM/SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Raman spectroscopy.

Book Synthesis and Characterization of CMK Porous Carbons Modified with Metals Applied to Hydrogen Uptake and Storage

Download or read book Synthesis and Characterization of CMK Porous Carbons Modified with Metals Applied to Hydrogen Uptake and Storage written by Marcos B. Gómez and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this chapter, we have shown that hopeful hydrogen storage material can be obtained by ordered mesoporous carbons (carbons mesostructured from Korea, CMK-1 and CMK-3) and modified with metal/cations species. The pristine CMK-1 and CMK-3 were synthesized by replication using MCM-48 and SBA-15 as hard templates and sucrose as a carbon source. Incorporation of metal species was carried out by wetness impregnation. The mesoporous materials modified were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS), RAMAN, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and adsorption/desorption N2 isotherms. Carbon modified with metal/cations shows a better capacity for hydrogen uptake than that of the mesoporous carbons. The evolution of high-pressure hydrogen adsorption measured at 77 K shows that composites can significantly enhance hydrogen adsorption capacity and hydrogen storage performance of carbon materials, proving to be prospective candidates for application in hydrogen storage. The improved activity and the larger performance of composite materials are attributed to improved dispersion of uniform metal/cations nanoparticles as well as to efficient use of the support, which may originate a high-surface area and pore volume, allowing a large dispersion of clusters.
