The reinforcing efficiency of SBA-15-type mesoporous silica, when used as additive in epoxy polymers, was evaluated this study. effects silica loading and its physicochemical characteristics on the thermal, mechanical, viscoelastic properties glassy rubbery mesocomposites were examined using SBA-15 silicas with varying porosities (surface area, pore size, volume), particle sizes, morphologies, ...

Au nanoparticles with small sizes (2-3 nm) were effectively stabilized in the mesopores of (S)-(-)-2-pyrrolidinone-5-carboxylic acid-modified SBA-15, which showed superior catalytic properties in aerobic oxidation of alcohols, compared with pyrrolidone-free SBA-15 supported Au catalysts.

SiO(2) mesoporous molecular sieve SBA-15 with the incorporation of erbium ions is studied as a novel type of nanoscopic composite photoluminescent material in this paper. To enhance the photoluminescence efficiency, two schemes have been used for the incorporation of Er(3+) where (1) Er(3+) is ligated with bis-(perfluoromethylsulfonyl)-aminate (PMS) forming Er(PMS)(x)-SBA-15 and (2) Yb(3+) is c...

A new pseudo-tetrahedral Co(II) complex has been grafted onto the surface of SBA-15 and successfully utilized for the catalytic oxidization of alkylaromatic substrates with tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP)via an H-atom transfer mechanism.

In this study, highly ordered mesoporous silica material (SBA-15) functionalized with Diethyl 2 - (9 -fluorenyl) malonate as a flourophore is reported. The anchoring of flourophores to the hydroxyl group on SBA-15 surface was done with post synthesis method. The obtained materials were characterized by small and wide angle X-ray diffraction, N2 adsorption–desorption, Fourier transform infrared ...

The carbon dioxide (CO2) separation can be enhanced by using modified materials like a deep eutectic solvent (DES) mesoporous silica SBA-15 in polymeric support i.e polysulfone via mixed matrix membranes (MMMs). pure and DES are potential candidates for the CO2 capturing their combination has not been reported yet. In this work, fresh was synthesized combining equal concentrations of Decanoic a...
