Polymer aerogels are a promising, non-brittle alternative to silica aerogel, but limited by their very poor high-temperature stability. Polyimide is widely known for its high heat-resistance, however, degree of volume shrinkage common polyimide after exposure temperatures above 200 °C. Here, we present the aerogel-in-aerogel composites that comprise aerogel grains with nanoparticulate microstru...

a new type of magnetically-recoverable catalyst was synthesized by the immobilization of h3pw12o40 on the surface of silica-encapsulated -fe2o3 nanoparticles. a series of novel 1,3,5-triaryl pyrazoline derivatives has been synthesized by the reaction of chalcone and phenylhydrazine in the presence of the -fe2o3@sio2-pw12nanoparticles,  in high yields. the structures of compounds obtained were...

a comparison of the photoefficiency of ni(ii) and nis incorporated into zeolite p towards photodecolorization of eriochrome black t dye solution was investigated in a photocatalytic reactor using uv lamp as a light source. the effect of various experimental variables on the decolorization performance of the process was evaluated by examining catalyst dosage, temperature, initial dye concentrati...

manganese metal-organic framework (mn-mof) containing mn2+ ions, benzenetricarboxylic acid (btc) and n,n-dimethylformamid (dmf) was prepared and used as catalyst for oxidation of alkenes such as 1,1-diphenylethylene, trans-stilbene, cyclohexene, norbornene, styrene and cyclooctene to epoxides with 33-92% conversion and 75-100% selectivity and oxidation of alkanes such as fluorene, adamantane, e...

Aerogels are three-dimensional ultra-light porous structures whose characteristics make them exciting candidates for research, development and commercialization leading to a broad scope of applications ranging from insulation and catalysis to regenerative medicine and pharmaceuticals. Biopolymers have recently entered the aerogel foray. In order to fully realize their potential, progressive str...

an efficient and chemoselective procedure for the preparation of 1, 1-diacatates (acylals) from various aldehydes with acetic anhydride in the presence of brønsted acidic ionic liquid [msei]cl as a reusable catalytic system under solvent-free condition at room temperature and short periods of times with excellent yields will be described. the catalyst was easily separated in simple work-up and ...
