Synthesis of Ln-doped MCM-41 mesoporous materials and their catalytic performance in oxidation of styrene

Using cetyl-trimethyl-ammonium bromide （CTMAB） as the template agent and tetraethylorthosilicate （TEOS） as the silica source, the MCM-41 mesoporous materials were synthesized with La or Ce incorporated in the framework under hydrothermal conditions. The structure and the state of La or Ce were investigated through the analyses of XRD, nitrogen adsorption-desorption, FT-IR, and UV-Vis. XRD and N2 adsorption-desorption results showed that Ln-MCM-41 exhibited the loss of the lattice ordering of the MCM-41 construct, and larger unit cell parameter and pore diameter than pure silica MCM-41. The FT-IR and UV-Vis results indicated the presence of isolated tetra-coordinated La or Ce ions in the framework and other Ln species dispersed highly on the Ln-MCM-41 surface simultaneously. Furthermore, their catalytic behaviors in the oxidation of styrene were studied using H2O2 as the oxidant. The La-MCM-41 catalysts exhibited high reactivity and the reactivity increased with the increase of the La content in the La-MCM-41 samples. On the contrary, Ce-MCM-41 catalysts showed low reactivity in the oxidation of styrene and the conversion of styrene decreased with the increase of the Ce content in the Ce-MCM-41 samples.

Using cetyl-trimethyl-ammonium bromide （CTMAB） as template and tetraethylortho-silicate （TEOS） as silica source, the MCM-41 mesoporous materials incorporated in framework by Y, Nd and Sm were synthesized by hydrothermal synthesis method. The structure, morphology of materials and the state of Y, Nd, Sm in materials were investigated by means of XRD, nitrogen adsorption-desorption, SEM, IR spectrometry, TG-DTA. The XRD results indicate that the samples possess the mesoporous MCM-41 structures with ordered hexagonal arrangements. Y, Nd and Sm ions can get into the framework of mesoporous materials. Nitrogen adsorption desorption isotherms show that the samples have typical mesopores characteristics. SEM micrographs reveal that incorporated sampies show a spherical morphology and the diameters are averagely 0. l0 to 0.15 μm. In IR spectrum of samples, there are the feature adsorption peaks about Si-O-Ln（Ln=Y, Sm, Nd）at 960-985 cm^-1, which affirm that Y, Nd, Sm ions locate in the framework of several mesoporous materials. Results from TG-DTA analysis suggest that two different template sorption sites exist in the framework of YMCM-41, SmMCM-41, NdMCM-41, which powerfully proves that the presence of Y, Nd and Sm in Si framework of the materials.

Preparation, Characterization and Luminescent Properties of MCM-41 Type Materials Impregnated with Rare Earth Complex

Hybrid materials incorporating Eu-(TTA)(3). 2H(2)O (7hereafter designated as Eu-TTA, with TTA: thenoyltrifluoroacetone) in unmodified or modified MCM-41 by 3-aminopropyl-triethoxysilane (APTES) were prepared by impregnation method.

All the hybrid samples exhibited the characteristic emission bands of EU3+ under UV light excitation at room temperature, and the excitation spectra showed significant blue-shifts compared to the pure rare-earth complex. Although the red emission intensity in the modified hybrid was almost the half of the red emission intensity in the pure Eu-TTA complex at room temperature, the hybrid showed a much higher thermal stability due to the shielding character of the MCM-41 host.

Fluoride above 1.5 mg·L-1 is injurious to health. Removal of fluoride from water using mesoporous MCM-41 as a strong adsorbent material has been attempted. Characterization using transmission electron microscopic study of calcined MCM-41 showed the regular hexagonal array of mesoporous channels with an average size of 20 nm and the surface area (BET study) of 1306.96 m2·g-1. The average pore size of the particles was found to be 14.21 nm. A study on the effect of contact time on the removal of fluoride revealed that more than 85% uptake of fluoride onto MCM-41 was achieved at a contact time of 120 min. From the Langmuir adsorption study, the maximum sorption capacity of fluoride was found to be 63.05 mg/g at 301 K. From the thermodynamic study, the +ΔHo value of 2.29 kJ·mol-1 indicated the endothermic nature of the removal process.

介孔材料MCM-41上汽油吸附深度脱硫(英文)

研究了不同硅铝比的MCM-41介孔材料作为吸附剂对模型汽油以及真实FCC汽油的脱硫性能.结果表明,在室温和常压下,MCM-41介孔材料对模型溶液中噻吩的吸附随着吸附剂中铝含量的增加而显著提高.吡啶吸附的红外光谱显示,噻吩吸附容量的提高与吸附材料酸性的明显增大有直接关系.但在对FCC汽油的吸附脱硫实验中,随着MCM-41中铝含量的提高,脱硫率并未增大.这主要是由于在FCC汽油中存在大量性质与噻吩类含硫化合物十分相近的芳烃和烯烃,竞争吸附导致MCM-41对有机硫化物的吸附能力显著降低.

Cu-MCM-41介孔分子筛中不同价态铜上的吸附性能研究

合成了不同铜含量的Cu-MCM-41,高温还原后仍具有良好的介孔结构。孔壁中的铜容易被H2还原为Cu(0)。通过在氦气流中加热,可以导致孔壁中的Cu!还原为Cu"。MCM-41中不同价态的铜具有不同的吸附性能:Cu(0)强烈吸附O2,吸附热高达427kJ·mol-1;Cu"在室温下几乎不吸附O2,表明Cu"在室温下较稳定;而Cu"在对CO与C2H4的吸附中,除了CO的吸附热与Cu(0)的相近外,所生成的吸附热与吸附量均较高。红外光谱也表明,Cu"比Cu(0)更容易吸附CO与C2H4。C2H4仅仅以π-键键合在Cu(0)表面,而在Cu"表面上却是以di-σ和π-键键合,由于di-σ键较强,使得C2H4在Cu"上具有较高的吸附热。
