As the electrochemical method, the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) Stripping Cyclic Voltammetry detection method was designed for measurement and monitoring of adsorbed mercury ions by new modified adsorbent based on mesoporous silica as a new adsorbent. In this respect, SBA-15 as mesoporous silica and 1, 3, 5 Trithiane as effective modifier ligand were chosen, and the modification process was car...

An ordered mesoporous carbon, CMK-3, was synthesized using a mesoporous siliceous material, SBA-15, as the template. CMK-3 was characterized and used for the adsorption of fullerenes C60 and C70. It was found that the adsorption capacity of CMK-3 is 4 times higher than that of activated carbon. The adsorption equilibrium isotherms of C60 and C70 on CMK-3 were studied for both single and binary ...

Ti-hexagonal mesoporous silica (Ti-HMS) with high titanium content has been synthesized. The Ti-HMS has been applied as a potential adsorbent for the selective capture of phosphopeptides, due to the strong affinity interaction between the incorporated titanium in the framework and the phosphoryl groups of phosphopeptides.

An economical mesoporous aluminosilicate was synthesized with microcline as starting material and the precursor 13X zeolite as seed for crystal structure on mesoporous walls. In this method, a mixture of microcline and Na2CO3 with a molar ratio of 1:1.05 was first calcined at 1093 K for 2.5 h. The calcined materials were mixed with 35 ml C16TMABr aqueous solution (containing 8.2 g C16TMABr) and...

A mesoporous hybrid silicate microsphere with superior adsorption performance has been successfully synthesized by employing an "all-into-one" strategy and a simple one-pot hydrothermal process using naturally abundant low-grade red palygorskite (PAL) clay as raw material in the presence of non-toxic SiO32- and Mg2+ ions. As is expected, both the PAL and associated minerals transformed into a n...

Mesoporous silica with KIT-6 structure was investigated as a preconcentrating material in chromatographic systems for ammonia and trimethylamine. Its adsorption capacity was compared to that of existing commercial materials, showing its increased adsorption power. In addition, KIT-6 mesoporous silica efficiently adsorbs both gases, while none of the employed commercial adsorbents did. This mean...

spherical mesoporous silica mcm-41 was synthesized for adsorptive removal of sulfur compounds from fossil fuels using 1mm solution of dibenzothiophene (dbt) in dodecane as model oil. the prepared silica adsorbent has been characterized by nitrogen adsorption-desorption analysis as well as small angle x-ray scattering (saxs), and transmission and scanning electron microscopy (sem) methods. resul...

BACKGROUND A liquisolid technique has been reported to be a new approach to improve the release of poorly water-soluble drugs for oral administration. However, an apparent limitation of this technique is the formulation of a high dose because a large amount of liquid vehicle is needed, which finally results in a low-dose liquisolid formulation. Silica as an absorbent has been used extensively i...

Mesoporous silicas, especially those exhibiting ordered pore systems and uniform pore diameters, have shown great potential for sensing applications in recent years. Morphological control grants them versatility in the method of deployment whether as bulk powders, monoliths, thin films, or embedded in coatings. High surface areas and pore sizes greater than 2 nm make them effective as adsorbent...

This paper deals with the removal of Cu(2+) from water using adsorbent materials prepared from paper industry waste materials (one de-inking paper sludge and other sludge from virgin pulp mill). Experimental results showed that de-inking paper sludge leads to mesoporous materials (V(mic)/V(T)=0.13 and 0.14), whereas the sludge from virgin pulp mill produces high microporous adsorbents (V(mic)/V...
