In this paper, an in-situ microfluidic control unit (MCU) was designed and applied in a hydrothermal synthesis process, which provides an easy way to localize liquid-phase reaction and realize selective synthesis and direct growth of nanostructures as well as their morphology, all in a low-temperature and atmospheric environment. The morphology was controlled through controlling the amount of a...

Applications of zeolite membranes in separation, chemical sensors, and catalytic membrane reactors have led to extensive studies on their fabrication. To date, mainly silicatebased zeolite membranes of the structure types MFI, DDR, LTA, and FAU have been synthesized on different substrates and evaluated for singleor multiple-gas permeation. Routes for the synthesis of zeolite membranes can be b...

Aza heterocyclic compounds are major interest for organic chemists because of their mainly pharmacological activities and clinical applications such as antianxiety, antitumor, anticonvulsant, cardiotonic and vasorelaxant. This contribution describes an electrochemical approach for the preparation of nanosized particles of phthalazine in high yields and very short reaction time. The method is ba...

nano-sized γ-al2o3 was synthesized successfully by a simple method using al2(so4)3·18h2o as aluminium source and in the presence of polyethylene glycol (peg 2000). ftir spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscope (sem) and transmission electron microscope (tem) were used to characterize the structure and morphology of synthesized powder. the results showed that peg playe...

microporous hydroxy-sodalite zeolite membranes with different morphologies were synthesized via secondary growth technique with vacuum seeding on tubular α-al2o3 supports at two different synthesis conditions (i.e. two different routes). microstructures of the synthesized membranes were characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscope (sem) and single gas permeation using ...

The site-selective H/D exchange reaction of phenol in sub- and supercritical water is studied without added catalysts. In subcritical water in equilibrium with steam at 210-240 degrees C, the H/D exchange proceeds both at the ortho and para sites in the phenyl ring, with no exchange observed at the meta site. The pseudo-first-order rate constants are of the order of 10(-4) s(-1); 50% larger for...

Perlite or pearl stone is a natural glass which has formed by rapid cooling of viscous lava or magma. Perlite is mainly composed of silica, aluminum, potassium and sodium. In this experiment, perlite was used as a low-cost source of Si and Al to synthesis of sodalite zeolite using the alkaline hydrothermal treatment. A statistical Taguchi design of experiments was employed to evaluate the effec...

The synthesis of Nb doped BaTiO3 has been investigated under Microwave-Hydrothermal (MH) conditions in the temperature of 150°C for only 2 h using C16H36O4Ti, BaH2O2.8H2O and NbCl5 as Ba, Ti and  Nb sources, respectively.  Typical experiments performed on MH processing have not yet reported for Nb doped BaTi...
