In this study, N-methyl-N'propyltrimethoxysilylimidazoliummodified LUS-1 and MCM-48 nonoporous materials were prepared and employed as adsorbent for removing Reactive Blue-19 from aqueous solutions.LUS-1 and MCM-48 were made based on the previous procedure and modified with N-methyl-N'propyltrimethoxysilylimidazolium chloride. XRD analyses did not show any lattice alteration between modified an...

A series of mesoporous silica (MS) materials, including rod-like and spherical SBA-15, MCM-41, MCM-48, was successfully synthesized modified by silane coupling agent γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane. The MS utilized as a microreactor for solution reversible addition–fragmentation transfer (RAFT) polymerization methyl methacrylate (MMA) using xanthate chain azodiisobutyronitrile an initiator. Notabl...

A new bis(indenyl)zirconocene bearing a pendant Si-Cl anchor has been grafted onto MCM-41, SBA-15, MCM-48 and a disordered mesoporous silica for the polymerisation of ethylene and propylene, producing polymers with very high molecular weights, low polydispersities and, in the case of polypropylene, higher levels of isotacticity than obtainable with analogous homogeneous systems.

BACKGROUND Dendritic cells (DC) induce tumor or pathogen-specific T cell responses in humans. Several laboratories have developed culture systems, including maturation factors for human DC from peripheral blood monocytes. We comprehensively compared standard maturation stimulus, an autologous monocyte-conditioned medium (MCM), with heparin for their ability to promote uniformly mature DC that e...

The catalytic pyrolysis of Laminaria japonica was carried out over a hierarchical meso-MFI zeolite (Meso-MFI) and nanoporous Al-MCM-48 using pyrolysis gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (Py-GC/MS). The effect of the catalyst type on the product distribution and chemical composition of the bio-oil was examined using Py-GC/MS. The Meso-MFI exhibited a higher activity in deoxygenation and aromat...
