Modifying MCM-41 as an efficient nitrosamine trap in aqueous solution

The attempt of preparing efficient adsorbent to capture nitrosamines in aqueous solution is reported in this paper, in order to develop new mesoporous functional materials for environment protection. Adsorption of nitrosamines in an aqueous solution containing the tobacco-extract, by zeolite and mesoporous silica was investigated in detail. The influence of structural parameters such as pore size, Si/Al ratio and cation on the adsorption of zeolite was examined. Emphatically, two modification methods, one-pot synthesis and solid state grinding were employed to incorporate aluminum in mesoporous silica MCM-41 since MCM-41 possesses the suitable pore size for the trap of tobacco specific nitrosamines (TSNAs) in solution. The resulting composites were characterized by XRD, N₂ adsorption at 77 K, FTIR and NH₃-TPD to inspect their property and function. The impact of modifier amount and preparative method on the actual adsorption of the Al-containing composite was investigated.     

Effect of pore expansion and amine functionalization of mesoporous silica on CO2 adsorption over a wide range of conditions

Adsorption of CO₂ was investigated over a wide range of conditions on a series of mesoporous silica adsorbents comprised of conventional MCM-41, pore-expanded MCM-41 silica (PE-MCM-41) and triamine surface-modified PE-MCM-41 (TRI-PE-MCM-41). The isosteric heat of adsorption, calculated from adsorption isotherms at different temperatures (298–328 K), showed a significant increase in CO₂–adsorbent interaction after amine functionnalization of PE-MCM-41, consistent with the high CO₂ uptake in the very low range of CO₂ concentration. The CO₂ adsorption isotherm and kinetics data showed the high potential of TRI-PE-MCM-41 material for CO₂ removal in gas purification and separation applications. With TRI-PE-MCM-41, the CO₂ selectivity over N₂ was drastically improved over a wide range of conditions compared to pure mesoporous silica. Moreover, the adsorption was reversible and fast, and the adsorbent was thermally stable and tolerant to moisture.     

Study of the Adsorption Properties of MCM-41 Molecular Sieves Prepared at Different Synthesis Times

The variation of surface properties of SiMCM-41 and AlMCM-41 nanoporous materials as function of synthesis time was examined. The main properties studied were: surface area, pore diameter, pore volume, mesoporous parameter, and wall thickness. Siliceous MCM-41 molecular sieves were synthesized starting from hydrogels with the following molar compositions: 4.58SiO₂:0.435Na₂O:1 CTMABr:200 H₂O for SiMCM-41, and 4.58SiO₂:0.485 Na₂O:1 CTMABr:0.038 Al₂O₃:200 H₂O, for AlMCM-41. Cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTMABr) was used as the structural template. The crystallographic parameters were obtained from XRD data and by nitrogen adsorption using the BET and BJH methods. The results obtained showed a significant variation of the surface properties of the MCM-41 materials as a function of the synthesis time reaching silica wall thickness of ca. 2 nm on the fourth day.

Pure and binary adsorption of CO2, H2, and N2 on activated carbon

A new developing field of application for pressure swing adsorption (PSA) processes is the capture of CO₂ to mitigate climate change, especially the separation of CO₂ and H₂ in a pre-combustion context. In this process scheme the conditions of the feed to the separation step, namely a pressure of 3.5 to 4.5 MPa and a CO₂ fraction of around 40% are favorable for an adsorption based separation process and make PSA a promising technology. Among the commercial adsorbent materials, activated carbon is most suitable for this application. To evaluate the potential, to benchmark new materials, and for process development a sound basis of the activated carbon thermodynamic data is required, namely equilibrium adsorption isotherms of the relevant pure components and mixtures, Henry’s constants and isosteric heats.     

Adsorption of diazinon and fenitothion on MCM-41 and MCM-48 mesoporous silicas from non-polar solvent

The adsorption of two common organophosphorus pesticides, diethoxy-[(2-isopropyl-6-methyl-4-pyrimidinyl)oxy]-thioxophosphorane (diazinon) and dimethoxy-(3-methyl-4-nitrophenoxy)-thioxophosphorane (fenitrothion), by MCM-41 and MCM-48 mesoporous silicas at room temperature was investigated. UVvis and IR spectroscopy, small-angle X-ray diffraction, and the specific surface area analysis (S _BET) were used to study the adsorption behavior of diazinon and fenitrothion. The results show that the MCM-41 and MCM-48 mesoporous silicas adsorb diazinon more efficiently than fenitrothion. The extraction of adsorbed materials from the adsorbents with polar solvents and subsequent analysis by ³¹P NMR showed that the adsorption of diazinon and fenitrothion on mesoporous silicas is destructive and non-destructive, respectively. Nitrogen adsorption measurements showed that the specific surface area of both silicas decreases after the adsorption of pesticides, and the larger effect is observed for diazinon. The article is published in the original.     

Influence of the Solvent Properties on MCM-41 Surface Modification of Aminosilanes

The CO₂ adsorption capacity of AEAPDMS-MCM-41s produced in toluene had a relatively high value of 2.20 mmol⋅g⁻¹.

Adsorption of 2-methylbenzoic acid onto MCM-41 mesoporous material: kinetics and equilibrium studies

Ordered mesoporous molecular sieves are widely studied as alternative materials in areas where sorptive and catalytic applications are required. MCM-41 type mesoporous material was tested as sorbent of 2-methylbenzoic acid (MBA), an aromatic carboxylic acid selected as model molecule for adsorption studies on mesoporous silicas. Adsorption kinetic studies of MBA on MCM-41 type materials were carried out using ethanol solutions at different MBA concentrations. Experimental results followed Langmuir isotherm model showing large adsorption capacity (3.5?g/g). Two kinetic models, the pseudo first- and second-order, were selected to describe the adsorption process and to determine the best model fitting with the experimental data. Kinetic parameters for each kinetic equation were calculated and discussed. It was shown that the MBA adsorption process onto MCM-41 material could be described by the pseudo-second-order equation and that the MCM-41 performs as a suitable adsorbent material.     

Preparation of MnCo/MCM-41 catalysts with high performance for chlorobenzene combustion

MCM-41 was synthesized by a soft template technique. The specific surface area and pore volume of the MCM-41 were 805.9 m²/g and 0.795 cm³/g, respectively. MCM-41-supported manganese and cobalt oxide catalysts were prepared by an impregnation method. The energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy clearly confirmed the existence of Mn, Co, and O, which indicated the successful loading of the active components on the surface of MCM-41. The structure and function of the catalysts were changed by modulating the molar ratio of manganese to cobalt. The 10%MnCo(6:1)/MCM-41 (Mn/Co molar ratio is 6:1) catalyst displayed the best catalytic activity according to the activity evaluation experiments, and chlorobenzene (1000 ppm) was totally decomposed at 270 °C. The high activity correlated with a high dispersion of the oxides and was attributed to the exposure of more active sites, which was demonstrated by X-ray diffraction and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. The strong interactions between MnO₂, Co₃O₄, MnCoO_x, and MCM-41 indicated that cobalt promoted the redox cycles of the manganese system. The bimetal-oxide-based catalyst showed better catalytic activity than that of the single metal oxide catalysts, which was further confirmed by H₂ temperature-programmed reduction. Chlorobenzene temperature-programmed desorption results showed that 10%MnCo(6:1)/MCM-41 had higher adsorption strength for chlorobenzene than that of single metal catalysts. And stronger adsorption was beneficial for combustion of chlorobenzene. Furthermore, 10%MnCo(6:1)/MCM-41 was not deactivated during a continuous reaction for 1000 h at 260 °C and displayed good resistance to water and benzene, which indicated that the catalyst could be used in a wide range of applications.

Adsorption of acid blue on synthesized polymeric nanocomposites,PPy/MCM-41 and PAni/MCM-41: Isotherm,thermodynamic and kinetic studies

In the this research, removal of acid blue 62 from aqueous solution using mesoporous crystalline material-41 (MCM-41) loaded by polypyrrole (PPy) and polyaniline (PAni) was investigated. Synthesized composites were characterized by SEM, TEM, FTIR, XRD and BET analysis. Langmuir adsorption isotherm showed the best compatibility with the experimental data in comparison with other isotherm models (q_m = 55.55 mg/L). Kinetic studies proved that the adsorption process is compatible with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. Thermodynamic parameters such as Gibbs free energy changes (ΔG^o), Enthalpy changes (ΔH^o) and Entropy changes (ΔS^o) were calculated. Negative value of ΔG^o and positive value of ΔH^o show that adsorption of Acid blue 62 on PPy/MCM-41 nanocomposite is a spontaneous process also endothermic.     

Effect of auxiliary chemicals on preparation of silica MCM-41

Silica MCM-41 materials were prepared hydrothermally by using 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene (MS) or 1,3,5-triisopropylbenzene (TI) as an auxiliary chemical. The BJH poressize of MCM-41 increased up to 12 nm with increasing amounts of MS. However, MCM-41 materials prepared with MS displayed irregular pore arrangements and a half of these materials exhibited low thermal and hydrothermal stabilities. On the other hand, MCM-41 materials prepared with TI as an auxiliary chemical displayed regular pore arrangements and high thermal and hydrothermal stabilities, but their BJH pore sizes did not go over 4.0 nm (intrinsic value; ca. 5 nm). MCM-41 prepared with TI together with a small amount of MS (TI/MS/SiO₂=1.5/0.5/1) displayed regular pore arrangements and high thermal and hydrothermal stabilities. Its BJH pore size was 4.7 nm (intrinsic value; ca. 6 nm).     

Tailored doxycycline delivery from MCM-41-type silica carriers

Doxycycline, an antibiotic from the tetracycline class with a broad spectrum of activity, was used to prepare drug delivery systems based on pristine and functionalized mesostructured silica supports. MCM-41-type materials with different textural, structural, and surface properties were used to assess their influence on the drug release kinetics. Small- and wide-angle XRD, FTIR spectroscopy and N₂ adsorption/desorption isotherms were used to characterize the carriers before and after doxycycline loading. The drug release experiments were performed in vitro in 0.2 M phosphate buffer solution at 37 °C, and the slowest drug release kinetics was obtained for magnesium-modified MCM-41 carrier. All drug-loaded materials exhibited good antibacterial activity against Klebsiella pneumoniae ATCC 10031 strain, similar to the drug alone.

Removal of Cr(VI) from aqueous solutions using EDCC-MCM-41: Isotherm,kinetics and thermodynamic evaluation

Abstract

EDCC-MCM-41, a novel ethylenediamine derivative of MCM-41 was synthesized from a sugar industry waste, bagasse fly ash. Studies were carried out on its ability to remove Cr(VI) from aqueous solution. Its performance was also compared with that of unmodified MCM-41 and an already known derivative NH₂-MCM-41 (both also synthesized from bagasse fly ash) at the same experimental conditions. Results show that the novel adsorbent produced a better sorption performance (adsorption capacity of 49.04?mg g^?1) than MCM-41 and NH₂-MCM-41 which produced adsorption capacities of 13.78?mg g^?1 and 25.29?mg g^?1 respectively. Thermodynamics, kinetics and isotherm studies confirm that the sorption process involving the novel adsorbent is favorable for Cr(VI) and can best be represented by pseudo-second-order kinetics model. The sorption process was also found to be multistep, involving both film diffusion and intraparticle diffusion into the pores on the adsorbent’s surface.

Synthesis, characterization, and catalytic properties of stable mesoporous molecular sieve MCM-41 prepared from zeolite mordenite

Mesoporous molecular sieves (denoted as M-MCM-41) with ordered hexagonal structure have been successfully synthesized from the assembly of precursors from preformed zeolite Mordenite with CTAB surfactant micelle in alkaline media. The samples were characterized by XRD, N₂ adsorption, IR and DTG. The materials exhibit highly hydrothermal stability, as compared with conventional MCM-41. Characterization results indicate that the mesoporous walls of M-MCM-41 contain the secondary building units similar to those in microporous crystal of zeolite Mordenite. In catalytic dealkylation of C10⁺ aromatic hydrocarbon, M-MCM-41 shows higher activities in comparison with Mordenite and MCM-41, which would be ascribed to the combination of advantages of both MCM-41 (large pores) and Mordenite (strong acidity). Furthermore, this synthesis strategy could be used as a new general method for the preparation of hydrothermally stable mesoporous aluminosilicate materials under alkaline conditions.
