the mesoporous molecular sieve mcm-41 was covalently grafted with 3-chloropropyl trimethoxylsilane and then was reacted with [cr(salpr)(h2o)]cl, (salpr = n,n'-bis(3-salicylidenaminopropyl)amine) to afford mcm-41 containing cr(salpr) moiety, cr(salpr)mcm-41. powder x-ray diffraction and nitrogen adsorption-desorption analyses revealed that not only the textural characteristics of the support wer...

nanoporous graphene which is used as nanosorbent was synthesized by chemical vapor deposition method via porous zinc oxide nanocatalyst. the reaction was carried out using methane as the carbon source and hydrogen as the carrier gas in a ratio of 4:1 at the temperature ranging 900-1050°c for 2-50 min. the product was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscop...

Background: Inspired by structural hierarchies and the related excellent mechanical properties of biological materials, we created a smoothly graded micro- to nanoporous structure from a thermoplastic polymer. Results: The viscoelastic properties for the different pore sizes were investigated in the glassy regime by dynamic flat-punch indentation. Interestingly, the storage modulus was observed...

N-Methyl-Nʹ-propyltrimethoxysillylimidazolium chloride was prepared as ionic liquid (IL) containing silylating agent and then used for modification of the internal surface of SBA-15 to gain a heterogeneous ionic liquid catalyst. Subsequently, the obtained SBA-IL was characterized using various techniques, including SEM and TEM images, FT-IR, X-ray diffraction, TGA/DTA and BET ...

Manganese (?) complex with 2, 2? bipyridine, 1, 1? dioxide (bpdo) ligand was immobilized within nanoreactors of MCM-41. The immobilized complex was characterized by powder x-ray diffraction (XRD), nitrogen adsorption desorption, and FTIR. The pore volume, surface area and pore diameter of MCM-41 decreased after immobilization of Mn complex. Three bands observed at 1250, 1220 cm?1 and 757 cm?1 a...

We explored the influence of ulinastatin on apoptosis of T lymphocytes in rats with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) and the effect of ulinastatin on mitochondrial apoptosis pathways in spleen lymphocytes. Thirty-six Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups (N = 12): a sham operated group, a SAP group, and an ulinastatin-treated SAP group. The SAP model was established by injecting 5%...

-The extent of illite/smectite (I/S) reactions is linked with quantitative measurements of shale fabric in a suite of samples from a lower Frio Formation well. Greater illitization of the I/S clays is found in laminated shales that possess a larger pore surface area/pore volume (SA/V) of 3.21 x 106 cm-~ than the adjacent massive shale lithofacies with a SA/V of 1.97 x 106 cm -~. Mean pore diame...

Tissue engineering scaffolds require a controlled pore size and structure to host tissue formation. Supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) processing may be used to form foamed scaffolds in which the escape of CO2 from a plasticized polymer melt generates gas bubbles that shape the developing pores. The process of forming these scaffolds involves a simultaneous change in phase in the CO2 and the ...
