Isotherm equation is one of the important scientific bases for adsorbent selection. There are different isotherms that do not account for an adsorbate, different chemisorption geometries on the nanoporous surface. It is interesting to introduce a general isotherm, which considers different chemisorption geometries of an adsorbate on nanoporous surfaces. In this study, an isotherm for non-dissoci...

Nanoporous carbons with high surface area are achieved through direct carbonization of a commercially available zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8) without any additional carbon sources. The resultant nanoporous carbons exhibit high electrochemical capacitances in an acidic aqueous electrolyte.

Plasmonic metal nanostructures have shown great potential in sensing, photovoltaics, imaging and biomedicine, principally due to the enhancement of local electric field by light-excited surface plasmons, i.e., collective oscillation of conduction band electrons. Thin films of nanoporous gold have received a great deal of interest due to the unique 3-dimensional bicontinuous nanostructures with ...

This work is part of a systematic study on the energy barriers for permeation several molecules, like He, H2, CO, CO2, H2O, NH3, CH4 etc, through nanoporous single layer graphene, having pores with different shape, size, and type. In present work, we focus CO2 graphene which are constructed when neighboring carbon atoms removed from structure, nitrogen have replaced in boundary pore. The each p...

Nanopore silicalite type membranes were prepared on the outer surface of a porous-mullite tube by in situ liquid phase hydrothermal synthesis. The hydrothermal crystallization was carried out under an autogenously pressure, at a static condition and temperature of 180 °C with tetrapropylammonium bromide (TPABr) as a template agent. The molar composition of the starting gel of silicalite zeolite...

Hydrothermal and non-hydrothermal spherical TiO2 nanoporous with crystalline framework were prepared by sol-gel method. The Crystalline structures, morphologies and surface texturing of materials were determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and N2 adsorption-desorption isotherms. The Hydrothermal spherical TiO2 nanoporous was found to have a narrow and strong p...

A novel method for flexibly implementing sample dialysis on microchips is introduced. Nanoporous polymer membranes (5-20 pm thickness) with up to 1OOO:l aspect ratio are fabricated in-situ on silica microchips via photopatterned phase-separation polymerization. These membranes enable selective diffusion of molecules smaller than a cutoff specified by the membrane pore size. Diffusion measuremen...

We have presented a method to prepare a uniform anodic nanoporous oxide film on the surface of a cylindrical zircaloy (Zr) tube. The distribution of the electric field around the Zr tube determines the distribution of the thickness of the anodic nanoporous oxide film. The electric field generated when a cylindrical Zr tube is electrochemically anodized was simulated by using commercial code COM...

1. Introduction In this work, we utilized molecular dynamics simulations to investigate gas diffusion in realistic nanoporous carbon models. We will focused on how the structure of the porous medium affects the gas diffusion. The porous structural features of interests include topological defects, dangling bonds, size and connectivity of the pores. Through a mimetic virtual synthesis routine, p...
