An intrinsic synthesis parameter governing the crystallization of silico(zinco)aluminophosphate molecular sieves.

ABSTRACT: One of the most fundamental but yet unanswered questions in the synthesis of zeolites and zeolite-like materials is whether or not any parameter controlling the microporosity of the crystallized product from synthesis mixtures with feasible chemical compositions exists. Here we report that an experimentally optimized parameter (ca. 3.3 ≤ MOH/P₂O₅ ≤ 5.3, where M is alkali metal ions) is the criterion bringing about the successful formation of various high-charge-density silicoaluminophosphate (SAPO) and zincoaluminophosphate (ZnAPO) molecular sieves, without the aid of organic structure-directing agents. The materials obtained using this empirical concept include SAPO molecular sieves with CHA and LTA topologies, as well as a SAPO FAU/EMT intergrowth, and ZnAPO ones with CZP and SOD topologies. This study demonstrates the existence of an essential factor determining not only phase selectivity but also microporosity (0.3-2 nm) in the synthesis of zeotypes with charged frameworks which may offer interesting opportunities for more efficiently producing novel zeolite structures and/or compositions.

Chromium Environment within Cr-Doped Silico-Aluminophosphate Molecular Sieves from Spin Density Studies.

Project description:X-/Q-band electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and hyperfine sublevel correlation (HYSCORE) spectroscopies have been employed, in conjunction with density functional theory (DFT) modeling, to determine the location of Cr5+ions in SAPO-5 zeotype materials. The interaction of the unpaired electron of the paramagnetic Cr5+ species with 27Al could be resolved, allowing for the first detailed structural analysis of Cr5+ paramagnetic ions in SAPO materials. The interpretation of the experimental results is corroborated by DFT modeling, which affords a microscopic description of the system investigated. The EPR-active species is found to be consistent with isolated Cr5+ species isomorphously substituted in the framework at P5+ sites.

3D-3D topotactic transformation in aluminophosphate molecular sieves and its implication in new zeolite structure generation.

Project description:Zeolites have unique pore structures of molecular dimensions and tunable compositions, making them ideal for shape selective catalysis and separation. However, targeted synthesis of zeolites with new pore structures and compositions remains a key challenge. Here, we propose an approach based on a unique 3D-3D topotactic transformation, which takes advantage of weak bonding in zeolites. This is inspired by the structure transformation of PST-5, a new aluminophosphate molecular sieve, to PST-6 by calcination. The structure of nano-sized PST-5 crystals is determined by 3D electron diffraction. We find that the 3D-3D topotactic transformation involves two types of building units where penta- or hexa-coordinated Al is present. We apply this approach to several other zeolite systems and predict a series of new zeolite structures that would be synthetically feasible. This method provides a concept for the synthesis of targeted zeolites, especially those which may not be feasible by conventional methods.

Enantiomerically enriched, polycrystalline molecular sieves.

Project description:Zeolite and zeolite-like molecular sieves are being used in a large number of applications such as adsorption and catalysis. Achievement of the long-standing goal of creating a chiral, polycrystalline molecular sieve with bulk enantioenrichment would enable these materials to perform enantioselective functions. Here, we report the synthesis of enantiomerically enriched samples of a molecular sieve. Enantiopure organic structure directing agents are designed with the assistance of computational methods and used to synthesize enantioenriched, polycrystalline molecular sieve samples of either enantiomer. Computational results correctly predicted which enantiomer is obtained, and enantiomeric enrichment is proven by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. The enantioenriched and racemic samples of the molecular sieves are tested as adsorbents and heterogeneous catalysts. The enantioenriched molecular sieves show enantioselectivity for the ring opening reaction of epoxides and enantioselective adsorption of 2-butanol (the R enantiomer of the molecular sieve shows opposite and approximately equal enantioselectivity compared with the S enantiomer of the molecular sieve, whereas the racemic sample of the molecular sieve shows no enantioselectivity).

Microscopic identification of the order parameter governing liquid-liquid transition in a molecular liquid.

Project description:A liquid-liquid transition (LLT) in a single-component substance is an unconventional phase transition from one liquid to another. LLT has recently attracted considerable attention because of its fundamental importance in our understanding of the liquid state. To access the order parameter governing LLT from a microscopic viewpoint, here we follow the structural evolution during the LLT of an organic molecular liquid, triphenyl phosphite (TPP), by time-resolved small- and wide-angle X-ray scattering measurements. We find that locally favored clusters, whose characteristic size is a few nanometers, are spontaneously formed and their number density monotonically increases during LLT. This strongly suggests that the order parameter of LLT is the number density of locally favored structures and of nonconserved nature. We also show that the locally favored structures are distinct from the crystal structure and these two types of orderings compete with each other. Thus, our study not only experimentally identifies the structural order parameter governing LLT, but also may settle a long-standing debate on the nature of the transition in TPP, i.e., whether the transition is LLT or merely microcrystal formation.

Synthesis of mesoporous silicate molecular sieves by the aerosol-assisted method for loading and release of drug.

Project description:The mesoporous silicate molecular sieves were synthesized with polyether F127 as the template by the aerosol-assisted method for loading and release of ibuprofen (IBU). The synthesized samples were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and N2 adsorption-desorption isotherms. The drug IBU was applied as a model drug to investigate the drug release behaviour by ultraviolet spectrophotometry measurements. The investigation results demonstrate that mesoporous silicate molecular sieves by the aerosol-assisted method are spherical with a core-shell structure. As the drug carrier, it has good structural stability and can achieve drug controlled release which is expected. It exhibits safety to a certain degree. Therefore, the aerosol-assisted synthesis method provides a new idea for the synthesis of sustained-release drug carriers.

Catalysis by framework zinc in silica-based molecular sieves.

Project description:Microporous and mesoporous zincosilicates (e.g., CIT-6, VPI-8, Zn-MFI, and Zn-MCM-41) synthesized in the presence of alkali cations contain two broad types of Zn sites: one that is a dication analog of the monocation ion-exchangeable Al-site in aluminosilicates, while the other resembles isolated Zn sites on amorphous silica. The ratio of these sites varies, depending on the synthesis conditions of the zincosilicate. Post-synthetic strategies based on ion-exchange can alter the site distribution towards either population. Furthermore, post-synthetic introduction of isolated Zn sites of the latter type is possible for materials possessing silanol nests. Both types of sites behave as Lewis acid centers in probe-molecule IR spectroscopy, but have very different catalytic properties. Due to the unusually high adsorption energies of Lewis bases on such materials, Lewis acid catalysis is difficult at low temperatures and in solvents bearing Lewis basic functionality. However, at high temperatures, in hydrocarbon solvents, CIT-6 (Zn-beta) is able to selectively catalyze the Lewis-acid-catalyzed Diels-Alder cycloaddition-dehydration reactions of ethylene with methyl 5-(methoxymethyl)furan-2-carboxylate, a furan that can be derived quantitatively by partial oxidation of biomass-based 5-hydroxymethylfurfural. Additionally, zinc in silica-based molecular sieves is shown here to enable chemistries previously not accessible with framework Sn-, Ti- and Zr-based Lewis acid sites, e.g., the direct production of dimethyl terephthalate by Diels-Alder cycloaddition-dehydration reactions of ethylene and the dimethyl ester of furan-2,5-dicarboxilic acid.

Direct synthesis of shaped MgAPO-11 molecular sieves and the catalytic performance in <i>n</i>-dodecane hydroisomerization.

Project description:In industrial application, molecular sieves are usually used in a certain shape. This requires the addition of binder and causes the reduction of both the molecular sieve content and catalytic performance. Herein, pseudo-boemite was mixed with deionized water at room temperature, followed by the drop-wise addition of phosphoric acid, magnesium acetate solution, hydrofluoric acid, di-n-propylamine and 1-ethyl-3-methyl imidazolium bromide with vigorous stirring. The molar ratio of Al2O3 : P2O5 : MgO : HF : DPA : [EMIm]Br : H2O in the gel was 1 : 1 : 0.03 : 0.18 : 0.4 : 1 : 45. Then the gel was dried, extruded and directly crystallized to form a shaped MgAPO-11 molecular sieve. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, N2 adsorption, ammonia temperature programmed desorption, pyridine adsorption infrared spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy were used to investigate the physicochemical properties of the samples. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and N2 adsorption tests show that the shaped MgAPO-11 molecular sieve is fully crystallized and possesses hierarchical porosity. Mg is incorporated into the molecular sieve framework and the Pt catalyst supported by the obtained shaped MgAPO-11 exhibits excellent catalytic performance with n-dodecane conversion of 94% and isomer selectivity of 95% at 280 °C. Such a method for the direct synthesis of shaped molecular sieves shows potential for the green synthesis of molecular sieves in industry.

On the Factors Governing Austenite Stability: Intrinsic versus Extrinsic.

Project description:In this review, we separate the different governing factors on austenite stability into intrinsic and extrinsic factors, depending on the domain defined by austenite grain boundaries. The different measuring techniques on the effectiveness of the governing factors in affecting the austenite stability are discussed. On the basis of the austenite stability, a new alloy design strategy that involves the competition between the intrinsic and extrinsic factors to control the transformation-induced plasticity (TRIP) effect to realize the stronger the more ductile steel is proposed. The present review may provide new insights into the development of novel thermal-mechanical processing to advance the mechanical properties of steels for industrial applications.
