This work focused on the influence of processing conditions on the mechanical properties of polypropylene (PP) and PP/mesoporous silica-hydroxyapatite (PP/MCM-41-HA) hybrid nanocomposites. The mechanical properties of PP were enhanced by adding MCM-41-HA nanoparticles. Neat PP and hybrid nanocomposites based on PP, containing maleic anhydride-grafted polypropylene (PP-g-MA) and MCM-41-HA, were ...

Ecofriendly chitosan/Al-MCM-48 (CH/Al-MCM) was synthesized from natural microcline and assessed as a potential adsorbent of As (V) ions with enhanced capacity. The adsorption properties CH/Al-MCM were in comparison Al-MCM-41 single phase. studied exhibits 178.6 mg/g capacity which is higher than (124 mg/g). illustrated based on the pseudo-first-order kinetic, Langmuir isotherm, monolayer model ...

Highly ordered aluminum-containing mesoporous silica (Al-MCM-41) was prepared using attapulgite clay mineral as a Si and Al source. Mesoporous complexes embedded with CuO nanoparticles were subsequently prepared using various copper sources and different copper loadings in a direct synthetic route. The resulting CuO/Al-MCM-41 composite possessed p6mm hexagonally symmetry, well-developed mesopor...

in the current investigation a novel nano hybrid adsorbent mcm-41/n-(3-trimethoxysilyl)-propyl)diethylenetriamine (mcm-41/tmspdeta) was prepared and was characterized using dls (dynamic light scattering), fourier transform infrared (ftir), x-ray diffraction (xrd), brunauer–emmett–teller (bet) analytical techniques and transmission electron microscopy (tem). the synthesized mcm-41/tmspdeta adsor...

Incorporation of [Fe(bipy)Cl4][bipy.H] (1) (where bipy is 2,2′-bipyridine) in the molecular sieves of the type LTA, NaY and mesoporous Al-MCM-41 by using a “ship in a bottle synthesis” approach was investigated. [Fe(bipy)Cl4][bipy.H] was successfullyincorporated in the channels ofmesoporousAl-MCM-41, and the product was characterized by X-ray diffraction, FTIR and BET analysis. It was fou...

In this work, we report a new hybrid nanomaterial based on the immobilization of 4-formyl benzo-9-crown-3 ether (FB9C3) onto the mesopores of MCM-41. First, the mesoporous molecular sieve MCM-41 was covalently grafted with 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane to give aminopropyl modified MCM-41 (AmpMCM-41). Reaction of this material with FB9C3 afforded the B9C3-AmpMCM-41 hybrid nanomaterial. The prepa...
