Electrochemistry has been introduced as a powerful tool in order to prepare new organometallic reagents for functionalizing of mesoporous silica. Preparation of the reagents was based on electrochemical oxidation of dihydroxybenzene derivatives in the presence of 3-(trimethoxysilyl)-1-propanethiol as a nucleophile. The mechanisms of electrochemical reactions were studied by voltammetric studies. Mesoporous silica SBA-15 was also synthesized in this work through sol-gel hydrothermal method using Genapol PF-10 as structure directing compound. The prepared mesoporous silica was characterized by FT-IR analysis and Barrett–Joiner–Halenda (BJH) pore size and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area measurement methods using N2 adsorption–desorption isotherm. Finally, the organometallic reagent was covalently grafted on the surface of mesoporous silica. Functionalizing of this material with the new reagent was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. The functionalized mesoporous silica by new reagent can be utilized in biological applications.

The synthesis of alkylpolyglucosides involves condensation of decanol with dextrose in the presence of mesoporous silica sol-gel as a catalyst. In this study, mesoporous silica was produced using sol-gel technique by converting tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) into silica. The mesoporous silica was characterized using BET surface area measurement and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy surface analysis. The specific BET surface area was 794m2/g. From the XPS analysis, the Si2p binding energy is 103.7 eV while the O1s binding energy is 532.8eV indicating the formation of Si-O-Si bond which attributed to SiO2. Mesoporous silica has been found efficient to be solid catalyst for synthesis alkylpolyglucosides and easy to be separated. The reaction was carried out 8 hours at 110°C-120°C under vacuum condition. The mass determination of alkylpoluglucosides has been achieved by ESI LC-MS/MS (ToF) positive-mode giving a mass peak at m/z = 343.21 corresponding to [M++ of alkylmonoglucoside peak at retention time 11.0 min.

The purpose of this article is to synthesize the thiol-and carboxyl-bifunctionalized mesoporous silica nanoparticles (CMS-SH-COOH). CMS-SH-COOH was successfully synthesized by co-condensation and post-grafting methods. Moreover, the particle size and structural properties of CMS-SH-COOH were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The obtained results indicated that the CMS-SH-COOH presented a uniform spherical shape with a wormhole arrangement of the mesopores and a relatively narrow paticle distribition. Therefore, the CMS-SH-COOH might be a great potential carrier for the drug delivery system in the future.

Amino-functionalized mesoporous silica (AFMS) with high amino loading, high surface area, and large pore size was synthesized using the anionic surfactant N-lauroylsarcosine sodium (Sar-Na) as template and 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) as co-structure directing agent (CSDA). The synthesized AFMS was characterized by N2adsorption-desorption, TEM and elemental analyzer. The results of the removal of Cd2+from aqueous solution showed that the pH value of aqueous solution affected the removal efficiency of Cd2+greatly, and that unary adsorption isotherm of Cd2+on the AFMS was well described by the Sips isotherm model, in which the adsorption capacity was 2.43 mmol/g for Cd2+, much higher than the literature data.

NaY zeolite was prepared by a simple sol-gel process. The prepared NaY was characterized by XRD,FT-IR,N2adsorption/desorption isotherms, and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The CO2dynamic adsorption/desorption performance of NaY was tested under atmospheric pressure using adsorption curve method in the fixed bed. The results demonstrate that NaY offeres high separation efficiency for CO2against N2. To further identify the most adsorption conditions, different adsorption temperatures and gas flow rates were investigated respectively. It is shown that NaY zeolite has the largest adsorption capacity of 88 mg/g adsorbent at 60°C,50ml/min, and the sample maintains still strong adsorption capacity and stable structure during 6 consecutive test cycles, which exhibits its stable adsorption/desorption behavior.

AbstractBecause of special characteristics of vanadate compound, such as its sustainability, magneticity, high selectivity in reactions and catalytic character, this study aimed to preparation and analyzing novel ceramic iron vanadate (FeVO4) nanofibers. The ceramic nanofibers of iron vanadate were made by the combination of sol-gel and electrospinning methods. First, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), as a matrix polymer, was mixed separately with ammonium metavanadate (NH4VO3) and iron (III) nitrate (Fe(NO3)3). As a result, the spinnable polymeric gel was obtained from the controlled mixture of these two precursors of ceramic material. Electrospinning of PVA/iron (III) nitrate/ammonium vanadate solution was done using an Electroris setup that enabled preparation of polymeric template nanofiber. Finally, iron vanadate nanofiber was obtained by calcination of polymer nanofiber at controlled temperature. The products were characterized with scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscope (EDX), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area analysis.

In this work we describe the relationship between surface modification of hexagonally ordered mesoporous silica SBA-15 and loading/release characteristics of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) naproxen. Mesoporous silica (MPS) was modified with 3-aminopropyl, phenyl and cyclohexyl groups by grafting method. Naproxen was adsorbed into pores of the prepared MPS from ethanol solution using a solvent evaporation method. The release of the drug was performed in buffer medium at pH 2 and physiological solution at pH 7.4. Parent MPSs as well as naproxen loaded MPSs were characterized using physicochemical techniques such as nitrogen adsorption/desorption, thermogravimetric analysis (TG), Zeta potential analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and elemental analysis. The amount of naproxen released from the MPSs into the medium was determined by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). It was shown that the adsorption and desorption characteristics of naproxen are dependent on the pH of the solution and the surface functionalization of the host.

ZnO/vermiculite as the novel photocatalysts were prepared by two approachs: one is mixtures of ZnO and different acid treated vermiculite, and another is sol-gel method. The acid activated vermiculite as a new promising catalyst support and adsorbent has a large capacity of absorption, high surface area and thermal stability. The activity of catalyst has been interrelated to support and ZnO. Based on the important effect of support on ZnO/vermiculite photocatalysts, treatment of vermiculite by nitric acid of different concentration was studied by evaluated in the photocatalytic decomposition of MB with resulting photocatalysts. BET surface area measurement and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis were used to characteristic of ZnO particle in acid treated vermiculite structure and the phase structure and crystallization index of ZnO in the modified vermiculite mineral. Results showed the ZnO-vermiculite combination possessing higher photocatalytic activity due to the synergistic effect when compared to the commercial ZnO.

Monometallic Ce, Cu and bimetallic Ce-Cu was successfully synthesized at room temperature using silica rice husk (RH) via sol-gel route and were characterized through several physicochemical techniques such as N2adsorption-desorption, XRD and DR/UV-Vis analyses. The prepared materials were designated as RH-10Cu, RH-20Ce and RH-10Cu20Ce. High mesoporosity with Type IV characteristics were evidenced for all the materials. The BET surface area registered for RH-10Cu, RH-20Ce and RH-10Cu20Ce were 396.02, 245.54 and 194.87 m2g-1respectively. Well-dispersion of metal species was clearly evidenced from XRD analysis. The strong interaction between ceria and copper was observed over RH-10Cu20Ce through DR/UV-Vis analysis.

Ni(II)-imprinted polymer has been prepared by surface imprinting technique based on support matrix of mesoporous silica SBA-15. The obtained adsorbent was characterized by FT-IR, SEM, and nitrogen adsorption-desorption. The compound retained mesoporous structure and the polymer coated inside channels and outside surface hole wall. The adsorption behavior was carried out with Ni(II)-IIP in batch experiments. The results suggested that Ni(II)-IIP could be used as an excellent adsorbent for efficient removal of Ni(II) from aqueous solution.
