Antibacterial tests of Ag/SBA-15 from petung bamboo leaf ash against Escherichia coli were carried out. Modification SBA-15 with Ag was conducted using the wet impregnation method while antibacterial test out by well diffusion and disc various concentrations Ag/SBA-15. The has a surface area ​​143 m2/g, pore diameter 8.4 nm volume 0.35 cm3/g. SAXS pattern /SBA-15 showed 3 typical peaks in 0o -2...

Novel organic-inorganic mesoporous luminescent hybrid material N, N'-bis(salicylidene)-thiocarbohydrazide (BSTC-SBA-15) has been obtained by co-condensation of tetraethyl orthosilicate and the organosilane in the presence of Pluronic P123 surfactant as a template. N,N'-bis(salicylidene)-thiocarbohydrazide (BSTC) grafted to the coupling agent 3-(triethoxysilyl)-propyl isocyanate (TESPIC) was use...

The partial oxidation of methanol to formaldehyde was studied over highly dispersed vanadia supported on mesoporous silica SBA-15 (VOx/SBA-15). VOx/SBA-15 catalysts were prepared by a novel grafting/ion-exchange method and characterized using UV-VISand Raman spectroscopy. The resulting surface vanadium oxide species (0 – 2.3 V/nm), grafted on the inner pores of the SBA-15 silica matrix, consist...

We report the first synthesis of titanium nitride (TiN) nanoparticles inside the nanoscale channels of mesoporous silica SBA-15. The TiN precursor, Ti(NMe(2))(4) in toluene, was incorporated into the methyl group-modified channels of the SBA-15 powder. The functionalization of pore surfaces with methyl groups generates hydrophobic surfaces that facilitate impregnation with Ti(NMe(2))(4) and min...

Mesoporous silica, SBA-15 was successfully functionalized with quinoline moiety, and was applied as a matrix in the MALDI-TOF-MS analysis of small molecules. The modified SBA-15 material [SBA-15-8-(3-(triethoxysilyl)propoxy) quinoline, SBA-15-8QSi] was obtained by using calcined SBA-15 and 8-hydroxy quinoline. The structure of the functionalized mesoporous material was systemically characterize...

The mechanism for the controlled synthesis of highly dispersed vanadia supported on mesoporous silica SBA-15 (VOx/SBA-15) is elucidated using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Raman and diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier-transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS). The synthesis consists of functionalization of SBA-15 using 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (APTMS) followed by HCl treatment, anion exch...

Pt nanoparticles with controlled sizes between 1.6–7.0 nm were anchored onto the surface and pores of SBA-15 silica support. The catalysts were characterized by TEM-ED, BET, XRD, and ICP-MS techniques and were tested in liquid phase hydrosilylation of phenylacetylene with triethylsilane. The activity of the 7.0 nm Pt nanoparticles anchored onto the surface of SBA-15 in hydrosilylation (TOF = 0....

Under pH 7 - 10 conditions, the mesoporous silica supports proposed for use in water treatment are relatively unstable. In batch experiments conducted in pH 7 solutions, the commonly used support SBA-15 dissolved quickly, releasing approximately 30 mg/L of dissolved silica after 2 hours. In column experiments, more than 45% of an initial mass of 0.25 g SBA-15 dissolved within 2 days when a pH 8...

Sulfonic acid functionalized mesoporous SBA-15 materials were prepared using the co-condensation and grafting methods, respectively, and their catalytic performance in the dehydration of xylose to furfural was examined. SBA-15-SO3H(C) prepared by the co-condensation method showed 92–95% xylose conversion and 74% furfural selectivity, and 68–70% furfural yield under the given reaction conditions...
