Based on recently published papers, this article introduces the characteristics, hydrogen storage capacity, and economic advantages of the adsorptive carbon system, zeolite, and glass microspheres as possible methods of hydrogen storage. The adsorbents for hydrogen storage now available on the market are activated carbon and zeolite. In terms of hydrogen adsorption, zeolite can adsorb 1 wt perc...

Ultrahigh-field 27Al MAS and MQMAS NMR and 129Xe NMR were used to characterize the zeolite-coated SBA-15 materials. This study shows evidence that zeolite nanoclusters are coated on the mesopore surface of SBA-15. These techniques are useful for the detection of zeolite nanoclusters and different aluminum environments in zeolite/aluminosilicate composites, which are difficult or even impossible...

introduction: soil structural stability affects the profitability and sustainability of agricultural systems. particle size distribution (psd) and aggregate stability are the important characteristics of soil. aggregate stability has a significant impact on the development of the root system, water and carbon cycle and soil resistance against soil erosion. soil aggregate stability, defined as t...

Pervaporation (PV) dehydration of isopropanol (IPA) using modified chitosan membranes was studied. The membranes were prepared from chitosan and were modified by using zeolite-A. Pre-weighed amount of zeolite-A was added into acidic solvent and stirred to produce homogeneous solution. Chitosan flakes were then added into the solution and stirred overnight. Various ratios of zeolite-A and chitos...

A d-dimensional zeolite is a d-dimensional body-and-pin framework with a (d+1)-regular underlying graph G. That is, each body of the zeolite is incident with d+1 pins and each pin belongs to exactly two bodies. The corresponding d-dimensional combinatorial zeolite is a bar-and-joint framework whose graph is the line graph of G. We show that a two-dimensional combinatorial zeolite is generically...

Chiral zeolitic materials with intrinsically chiral frameworks are highly desired because they can combine both shape selectivity and enantioselectivity. In the field of zeolite, the synthesis of chiral polymorph A of zeolite Beta or chiral polymorph A-enriched zeolite Beta is one of the biggest challenges. We demonstrate here a generalized extremely concentrated fluoride route for the synthesi...

High-quality TMA-A zeolite nonocrystals were synthesized using a hydrothermal method from a Al(i-pro)3 : 2.2 TEOS : 2.4 TMAOH : 0.3 NaOH : 200H2O composition. The average size of the zeolite crystal used was 60-130 nm with a lattice constant of 12.389 Å. The well-oriented self-assembled monolayers of zeolite with a face parallel to the glass surface treated with the 4-diisocyanates (DIC-4) show...

The electroactivity of zeolite-encapsulated redox-active transition metal complexes, {M(L)}Z, was explored for Co(salen) and [Fe(bpy)3] formed in NaY zeolite (where salen ) N,N′-bis(salicylidene)ethylenediamine and bpy ) 2,2′-bipyridine). The zeolite boundary was characterized via X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and cyclic voltammetry in nonaqueous electrolyte at either zeolite-modified ...

Zeolites are microporous crystalline materials with highly regular framework structures consisting of molecularsized pores and channels. The characteristic framework type of a zeolite is conventionally defined by combining information on its coordination sequences, vertex symbols, tiling, and transitivity information. Here we present a novel knowledge-based approach for zeolite framework type c...

Over the years, many strategies have been developed to address the problem of sintering of nanoparticle catalysts, including encapsulating metal nanoparticles in protective shells, and trapping nanoparticles in the cavities of certain zeolites in post-synthesis steps. In general, materials that contain metal nanoparticles that are only accessible via zeolite micropores are intriguing, specifica...
