Objective(s): In this research, zeolite X and zeolite Y were used as vehicle to prepare intestine targeted oral delivery systems of indomethacin and ibuprofen. Materials and Methods: A soaking procedure was implemented to encapsulate indomethacin or ibuprofen within synthetic zeolites. Gravimetric methods and IR spectra of prepared formulations were used to assess drug loading efficiencies into...

Nearly all atoms contributing to the local structure of Bransted acid sites in zeolites exhibit isotopes accessible for multinuclear solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) investigations. Therefore, in the last 15 years, NMR spectroscopy has found numerous applications for the determination of the types of hydroxyl proton in zeolites, of their concentration, accessibility, and mobility, a...

in present study, molecular dynamics simulation of cadmium (ii), lead (ii) and copper (ii) removal from aqueous electrolyte solutions using the ion-exchange process with the zeolite particles was done. the results showed that, most of the particles had the highest affinity of ion exchanging with lead (ii) and the lowest affinity with copper (ii). the calculated mean ion-exchange ratios showed t...

We study the background associated with phenomena observed in zeolites using combinatorial and geometric techniques. We define combinatorial d-dimensional zeolites and show that not all combinatorial zeolites have a unit distance realization inR , and of those that have a unit distance realization, not all have non-overlapping unit-distance realizations. Only few classes of finite 2-d zeolites ...

The direct experimental evidence shows that ethylbenzene disproportionation is a transition state shape selective reaction on zeolites: a bimolecular reaction mechanism via diphenylethane-mediated pathway on large-pore zeolites X and Y (ca. 0.74 nm) and a monomolecular reaction mechanism on medium-pore zeolites ZSM-5 (ca. 0.56 nm) via the ethoxy-mediated intermolecular ethyl group transfer. The...
