The direct and indirect methods in solvent media and grinding method in a solvent-free media were used to prepare the MCM-41/ZnO and MCM-48/ZnO photocatalysts. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns showed that zinc oxide nanoparticles were put into MCM-41 and MCM-48 substrates and there were ZnO crystallites as secondary phase in the extra framework of mesoporous materials. The decrease of surfa...

We present a novel strategy for mapping the localization of guest molecules (GMs) in mesoporous materials by combining mechanochemistry with solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (ssNMR) spectroscopy. To this end, we consider model guest–host systems benzoic acid (BA) and para-fluorobenzoic (4-FBA) embedded MCM-41 material examine recently proposed loading (MeLo) procedure efficient encapsulat...

To apply mobile crystalline material 41 (MCM-41), which has a larger specific surface area than many other nanoporous silicas, for energy absorption, chlorotrimethylsilane treatment is performed to adjust the structure of inner surfaces of nanopores. As the treatment time is sufficiently long, the pore surface can be changed from hydrophilic to hydrophobic, leading to an energy absorption effic...

This investigation examines metal ion adsorption on mesoporous silicate, MCM-41, synthesized from sodium silicate solution and cethyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB). MCM-41 has potential as an adsorbent material, with a regular hexagonal pore structure, large specific surface area, and large pore volume. The MCM-41 synthesized for this investigation is characterized using powder X-ray Received...
