Metal–organic framework gels and monoliths

CRYSTALLIZATION BEHAVIOUR OF GELS AND GEL-MONOLITHS IN THE Na2O-B2O3-SiO2 SYSTEM

Fabrication of porous carbon monoliths with a graphitic framework

Macro/mesoporous carbon monoliths with a graphitic framework were synthesized by carbonizing polymeric monoliths of poly(benzoxazine-co-resol). The overall synthesis process consists of the following steps: a) the preparation of polymeric monoliths by copolymerization of resorcinol and formaldehyde with a polyamine (tetraethylenepentamine), b) doping the polymer with a metallic salt of Fe, Ni o...

UV-LED photopolymerised monoliths.

For the first time photopolymerisation of polymer monoliths has been realised with UV-light emitting diodes (LEDs) as light source and demonstrated with polymethacrylate monoliths created in fused silica capillaries and plastic chips.

Monoliths in Bioprocess Technology

Monolithic columns are a special type of chromatography column, which can be used for the purification of different biomolecules. They have become popular due to their high mass transfer properties and short purification times. Several articles have already discussed monolith manufacturing, as well as monolith characteristics. In contrast, this review focuses on the applied aspect of monoliths ...

Anisotropically structured magnetic aerogel monoliths.

Texturing of magnetic ceramics and composites by aligning and fixing of colloidal particles in a magnetic field is a powerful strategy to induce anisotropic chemical, physical and especially mechanical properties into bulk materials. If porosity could be introduced, anisotropically structured magnetic materials would be the perfect supports for magnetic separations in biotechnology or for magne...
