This paper discusses balls in partial b-metric spaces and cone metric spaces, respectively. Let (X ,pb) be a partial b-metric space in the sense of Mustafa et al. For the family of all pb-open balls in (X ,pb), this paper proves that there are x, y ∈ B ∈ such that B′ B for all B′ ∈ , where B and B′ are with centers x and y, respectively. This result shows that is not a base of any topology on X...

A discussion of various strategies for the intrazeolite encapsulation of polymer filaments is given. Two examples are discussed in more detail: Poly(2-ethylaniline) and pyrolyzed polyacrylonitrile in zeolite hosts. Poly(2-ethylaniline) chains were synthesized within the three-dimensional channels of dehydrated zeolites X and Y via oxidation of the intrazeolite monomers with aqueous (NH4)2S20s. ...

In this work, a new synthesized Y-type zeolite with an Si/Al molar ratio of 2.5 (NaY) was modified with amines, in order to probe the influence of the modification of the adsorbent’s surface on CO2 adsorption. The three selected amines were diethanolamine, tetraethylenepentamine, and 2- methylaminoethanol. The surface nature of NaY was changed after amine modification, which causes a...

Thermal decomposition in a thermobalance of Fe(CO), adsorbed on alkali-metal, hydrogen-Y, dealuminated Y, L and omega zeolites proceeds stepwise via slow decarbonylation at low and high temperatures, separated by a fast endothermic reaction. Average CO/Fe ratios have been determined after each step. From i.r. results the former intermediates are assigned to species bearing bridging CO, whereas ...

Zeolites 5A were obtained by ion exchange of a zeolite 4A, previously synthesized the hydrothermal method from precursor kaolin, with aim removal As(V) drinking water and Pb(II) irrigation surface water. Zeolite was characterized before after adsorption X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, photoelectron spectroscopy. To find mechanisms both As Pb in r...

Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation of non-rigid H-Y zeolite framework are performed at 298.15 and 5.0 K. Usual bond stretching, bond angle bending, torsional rotational, and non-bonded Lennard-Jones and electrostatic interactions are considered as intraframework interaction potentials. Calculated atomic parameters are in good agreement with the experiment, which indicates the successful reprodu...

Environmental and/or occupational exposure to minerals, metals, and fibers can cause lung diseases that may develop years after exposure to the agents. The presence of toxic fibers such as asbestos in the environment plus the continuing development of new mineral or vitreous fibers requires a better understanding of the specific physical and chemical features of fibers/particles responsible for...
