The structural properties of the tested antibacterial material were characterized and the antibacterial activity was evaluated. In Cu^(2+)/ZnO-13 X(CZ-13), zinc oxide and copper ions were either embedded in the interlayer space or dispersed on surface of 13 X zeolite. Excellent antimicrobial activity of CZ-13 was observed on Escherichia coli(E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus(S.aureus). In the case of Cu^(2+)/ZnO-13 X, both MIC and MBC against E.coli were 0.2 mg/mL and 0.8 mg/mL. For S.aureus, CZ-13 also showed similar antibacterial properties. The bacterial cells turned from normal rod-shape into irregular shapes after treatment with the tested CZ-13. An increase of the intracellular enzyme activity after CZ-13 addition suggested that the permeability of the cell membrane increased and bacteria were damaged.展开更多

Seeded-gel approach is simpler than the normal secondary-growth one since adding seeds in the gel is simpler than seeding on the support surface. The synthesis time was greatly reduced from 3.0 to 1.0 d after synthesis modification of gel aging and seed sizes. Low temperature ozone calcination was used for the removal of the organic structural directing agent. The best SSZ-13 membrane displayed CO_(2)permeances of 1.3 × 10^(-6) and 1.5 × 10^(-6) mol·m^(-2)·s^(-1)·Pa^(-1) and CO_(2)/CH_(4) and CO_(2)/N_(2) selectivities of 125 and 27 for equimolar CO_(2)/CH_(4) and CO_(2)/N2mixtures at 0.2 MPa pressure drop and 298 K, respectively. Separation performance of the membrane in the two binary mixtures is higher than that of most zeolite membranes. Three SSZ-13 membranes were reproducibly prepared on tubular supports by seeded-gel approach and the standard deviation ratios of CO_(2) permeance and CO_(2)/CH_(4) selectivity are 12.5% and 7%, respectively. It suggests that this new synthesis approach is creditable. The effects of temperature and pressure on separation performance of the thin SSZ-13 membranes were studied in the two binary mixtures. The tubular SSZ-13 membranes displayed great potentials for CO_(2) capture from natural gas, biogas and flue gas.展开更多

In this study, we elucidate a novel approach to enhance the catalytic co-aromatization of hexane and methane by confining Pt within zeolite catalysts and modulating its electron density. Our findings show that encapsulating Pt within MFI structure is pivotal for activating the feedstock and fostering the formation of aromatic products. Interaction between K atoms and the silanol nest forms siloxy groups which are critical for the stabilization of Pt species. Tuning the K content in PtSn@MFI catalysts adeptly alters the electronic configuration of Pt clusters. This modification is corroborated by infrared and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis, and density functional theory calculations. Remarkably, the catalyst with 0.8 wt% K exhibits an optimal Pt electron density, driving its superior efficacy in the co-aromatization reaction, converting 0.78 mol of methane for each mole of hexane processed. By employing ~(13)C isotopic labeling and solid-state NMR studies, we demonstrate the participation of methane in the adsorbed species inside the zeolite channel and its incorporation to the benzyl site of the substitute group and phenyl rings in aromatic compounds, underscoring the importance of Pt encapsulation.展开更多
