Porous silica ceramics with above 70% porosity were fabricated by gelcasting process using tert-butyl alcohol (TBA) as solvent. Two types of starting powders, α-silica and fused silica, were chosen to fabricate porous silica ceramics. According to XRD analysis, only single α-cristobalite phase can be identified in the sintered samples. SEM observation showed that highly porous skeleton formed by the bonding of molten ceramic particles in porous silica ceramics. Comparing to the samples using α-silica as starting materials, a compressive strength of 6.30MPa was achieved at a porosity of 70.7% when using fused silica as starting materials. A relatively high specific surface area higher than 10m2/g was obtained for both samples, which should be suitable for catalysis applications as catalyst supports.

Highly porous silica ceramics were prepared by in-situ gelation of an aqueous suspension with well dispersed silica particles and N’N-dimethylacrylamide (DMAA) monomer, followed by lyophilization and pressureless sintering. The gelcasting process was imparted by polymerization of DMAA. The silica raw materials used in this experiment are the dusts collected from the exhaust fumes of silicon industry. The as-obtained porous silica ceramics had three-dimensional and hierarchical pore structure and the porosity ranged from 75 to 88 % as the sintering temperature varied from 850 to 1050 °C. In addition, the porous silica ceramics appeared to have strong mechanical strength. Compressive strength of the porous silica ceramics was as high as 3.2 MPa even when the porosity was nearly 80%. The gelcasting-lyophilization method was proved to be a novel and promising route for the preparation of highly porous and mechanically strong materials.

Kinetics Of

The kinetics of oxidation of [Co(en)2SCH2COO]+ with S2O82- was studied in water-methanol and water-tert-butyl alcohol mixtures. Changes in the reaction activation parameters ∆H≠ and ∆S≠ with varying concentration of the co-solvent depend on the kind of the latter, which points to a significant role of salvation effects. The solvation effect on the reaction is discussed based on a comparison of the transfer functions ∆Ht0, ∆St0 and ∆Gt0 for the initial and transition states with the changes in the activation parameters accompanying changes in the CO-solvent concentration. The transfer enthalpies of the reactant were obtained from calorimetric measurements.

The solubility, partial molar volume and standard integral molar enthalpy of solution of cis- and trans-[CoCl2(en)2]Cl in water, aqueous methanol, aqueous tert-butyl alcohol and aqueous acetonitrile are reported. The transfer functions ∆Gt0, ∆Ht0 and T∆St0 as well as partial molar volumes are used to obtain information on the solute-solvent interactions. Results obtained are discussed in terms of differences in the surface charge distribution in isomeric coordination species.

In this study, a Fenton-activated persulfate (Fe2+/PS) system was introduced for the efficient degradation of Mordant Blue 9 (MB 9) as a textile dye in an aqueous solution. Results showed that the degradation of MB 9 was markedly influenced by operational parameters, such as initial pH, PS concentration, Fe2+ concentration, and initial dye concentration. Optimal reaction conditions were then determined. Inorganic anions, such as Cl− and HCO3−, enhanced the degradation efficiency of MB 9 under optimal conditions. Addition of HCO3− reduced the degradation performance of MB 9, whereas the addition of Cl− increased the degradation percentage of MB 9. In addition, quenching experiments were conducted using methanol and tert-butyl alcohol as scavengers, and methanol was identified as an effective scavenger. Thus, the degradation of MB 9 was attributed to S O 4 • − and •OH radicals. The degradation and mineralization efficiency of MB 9 was significantly reduced using the conventional Fenton process i.e., Fe2+/ hydrogen peroxide (HP) because of the formation of a Fe complex during degradation. Meanwhile, the Fe2+/persulfate (PS) system improved the degradation and mineralization performance.

Transfer Properties

Porous silica particles have shown applications in various technological fields including their use as catalyst supports in heterogeneous catalysis. The mesoporous silica particles have ordered porosity, high surface area, and good chemical stability. These interesting structural or textural properties make porous silica an attractive material for use as catalyst supports in various heterogeneous catalysis reactions. The colloidal nature of the porous silica particles is highly useful in catalytic applications as it guarantees better mass transfer properties and uniform distribution of the various metal or metal oxide nanocatalysts in solution. The catalysts show high activity, low degree of metal leaching, and ease in recycling when supported or immobilized on porous silica-based materials. In this overview, we have pointed out the importance of porous silica as catalyst supports. A variety of chemical reactions catalyzed by different catalysts loaded or embedded in porous silica supports are studied. The latest reports from the literature about the use of porous silica-based materials as catalyst supports are listed and analyzed. The new and continued trends are discussed with examples.
