Green chemistry approach for the synthesis of CuO nanostructure

Molecular sieves MCM-41 were synthesized from rice husk ash (RHA) as alternative sources of silica. The material was synthesized by a room temperature method from a gel with the molar composition SiO2: 1.6EA: 0.215HDTMABr: 325H2O with pH correction. The cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTMABr) was used as a structure template. Nanocomposite containing 5.0 and 10.0 wt.% of Cu was synthesized unde...

A green chemistry approach for facile synthesis of functionalized boron nitride nanosheets

The lack of a high-yield, renewable and low-cost synthesis method limits the potential applications of boron nitride with impressive characterizations. In this study, a facile method is developed for the preparation of chemically functionalized boron nitride nanosheets (BNNSs) by considering the quantity and quality of chemical materials involved in the synthesis process. The proposed green met...

Catalysis for green chemistry *

The use of heterogenization as a method for achieving clean synthesis is discussed. The chemical modification of mesoporous solids can be used to make a range of catalysts, including solid acids and bases, and stable metal complexes for selective oxidations and other reactions. By avoiding an aqueous quench stage in the separation, the heterogenization of catalysts and reagents can lead to subs...
