The presence of tetrazine units in the organic nodes UiO-68-TZCD controls formation ultrathin coatings single-wall nanotubes that decorate surface crystal. These crystal hybrids can be prepared straightforwardly one step and are extraordinarily respectful with properties framework for combination mesoporosity areas ≈4.000 m2 g−1, excellent stability water, conductivities at room temperature 4 ×...

The Kirkendall effect was utilized to synthesize mesoporous silicalite-1 zeolite nanocrystals without the involvement of additional templates. The mesopore size as well as the particle size can be easily controlled by nanoscale Kirkendall growth via significantly reducing the amount of water or tetrapropylammonium hydroxide, which were used in large quantities in conventional methods. The Kirke...

High surface area activated carbon fibers (ACF) have been prepared from bamboo by steam activation after liquefaction and curing. The influences of activation temperature on the microstructure, surface area and porosity were investigated. The results showed that ACF from bamboo at 850 °C have the maximum iodine and methylene blue adsorption values. Aside from the graphitic carbon, phenolic and ...

Chirality is widespread in natural systems, and artificial reproduction of chiral recognition is a major scientific challenge, especially owing to various potential applications ranging from catalysis to sensing and separation science. In this context, molecular imprinting is a well-known approach for generating materials with enantioselective properties, and it has been successfully employed u...

Mesoporous, micro/nanosized TiO2/C composites with uniformly dispersed TiO2 nanoparticles embedded in a carbon matrix have been rationally designed and synthesized. In brief, TiO2 precursor was infiltrated into the channels of surface-oxidized mesoporous carbon (CMK-3) by means of electrostatic interaction, followed by in situ hydrolysis and growth of TiO2 nanocrystallites, resulting in ultrafi...

An efficient chamber-induced activation method was applied for the preparation of holey graphene/cellulose nanofiber-based film with high specific surface area (SSA) and multiple channels through graphene nanosheets. With cellulose nanofiber (CNF) simultaneously serving as “dispersing agent,” “spacer,” “activating oxide (GO) nanosheets are perforated by pyrolysis gas from CNF in confined space ...

Highly siliceous ZSM-5 nanocatalysts can dehydrate methanol to a wide range of hydrocarbons. In this study, the development of hierarchical H-ZSM-5 nanocatalysts (Si/Al=200) were reported for the methanol-toolefins (MTO) reaction. The nanocatalysts were prepared through a hydrothermal technique and treated by NaOH desilication. The parent and desilicated nanocatalysts were characterized using F...
