A simple, fast, efficient and environmentally friendly method for synthesis of benzimidazole and its 2-alkyl, aryl and heteroaryl substituted derivatives was developed using zeolite HY. Two component cyclolcondensation of 1,2-phenylenediamine (o-phenylenediamine) and commercially available carboxylic acids catalyzed by zeolite HY without any solvent, under microwave irradiation led to formation...

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...

A new kind of organosilane (1,6-bis (diethyl(3-trimethoxysilylpropyl)ammonium) hexane bromide) with a geminitype structure was prepared and used as a mesoporogen for the synthesis of hierarchical porous ZSM-5 zeolite. There are two quaternary ammonium centers along with double hydrolysable -RSi(OMe)3 fragments in the organosilane, which results in a strong interaction between this mesoporogen a...

Synthesis of high-purity single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) is demonstrated by a laser heating catalytic CVD method. This method makes it possible to produce SWNTs without the use of an electric furnace or hot filament. SWNTs were synthesized from alcohol using Fe/Co catalyst particles supported on zeolite and Mo/Co particles deposited directly on a substrate Synthesis of high purity SWNTs ...

Zeolite is a crystalline alumino-silicate microporous material, which has been widely used as ion-exchangers, adsorbent and catalyst.
 Recently, several researches highlights the progress of zeolite-based catalysts in CO2 conversion to valuable products.
 In present work, hydrothermal synthesis mordenite zeolite crystals, with composition chemical products Al2O3, 12.5 SiO2,2.4 NaOH, 1...

The combination of advantages of using zeolites and gold nanoparticles were aimed to be used for the first time to improve the characteristic properties of ion selective field-effect transistor (ISFET)-based creatinine biosensors. The biosensors with covalently cross-linked creatinine deiminase using glutaraldehyde (GA) were used as a control group, and the effect of different types of zeolites...

Mechanochemical activation and steam-assisted interzeolite transformation offer a simple, fast cost-efficient synthesis route to gmelinite (GME) zeolite. The use of faujasite (FAU) as the parent zeolite precursor facilitates reaction results in high yields high-quality GME less than 20 h under optimized conditions. accessible porosity amounts stacking-faults were determined by N2 physisorption ...

In this paper we report synthesis of Fe2TiO5-5A zeolite (Z5A) nanocomposites with 5%, 10% and 20% weight percent of Fe2TiO5 in 5A zeolite in stearic acid media after calcination of the gel samples obtained at 600-900°C for 2 hrs. The powder X-RAY diffraction (XRD) patterns have been used for characterization of the prepared samples. The Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) images and X-ray Energy...

To investigate template effect on physicochemical properties of zeolite and enhance the molecular sieving properties, adsorption of methionine amino acid was studied by spectroscopic methods. Four zeolites such as methionine templated analcime, methionine templated zeolite P, N, N-dibenzyl N,N,N,N-tetramethylethylenediamine (DBTMED) templated analcime and free template analcime were synthesized...
