Cooperative Sorption on Porous Materials

Synthesis . Characterisation , and Sorption Studies of Porous

The aim of this project is to prepare various m esoporous hosts having hexagonal and cubic pore packing morphologies and improve their thermal, hydrolysis, and mechanical stabilities. Subsequently, we incorporate metal clusters and metal oxides into the pores to improve their sorption properties and to remove different types of sulphur compounds from organic liquids. Hydrolysis, thermal and hyd...

Hydrogen Storage by Physisorption on Porous Materials

Imparting amphiphobicity on single-crystalline porous materials

The sophisticated control of surface wettability for target-specific applications has attracted widespread interest for use in a plethora of applications. Despite the recent advances in modification of non-porous materials, surface wettability control of porous materials, particularly single crystalline, remains undeveloped. Here we contribute a general method to impart amphiphobicity on single...

Characterize Porous Materials

■ Abstract Beam-based positron annihilation spectroscopy (PAS) is a powerful porosimetry technique with broad applicability in the characterization of nanoporous thin films, especially insulators. Pore sizes and distributions in the 0.3–30 nm range are nondestructively determined with only the implantation of low-energy positrons from a table-top beam. Depth-profiling with PAS has proven to be ...
