Summary: The impact of crystal size of the template zeolite on the textural properties of resulting Zeolite Templated Carbons was studied, revealing that micron-sized crystals led to a higher degree of structural defects in the final ZTC. Despite both nano- and micron-sized ZTCs showing evidence of long range structural order through XRD, the presence of supermicropores and small mesopores in the micron-sized sample indicated potential limitations in characterization using XRD patterns. Simulated XRD patterns proposed a graphene-based nanoribbon structure grown in the zeolite pores as a satisfactory model for ZTCs in beta zeolite.

Summary: In order to obtain a highly active TS-1 zeolite, we investigated the manipulation of the TS-1 zeolite crystallization process and examined the incorporation of Ti species into the MFI-framework through hydrolysis and/or dissolution processes using different Si sources such as TEOS, amorphous silica, and silicalite-1. We also studied the effect of TPAOH content in the synthesis gel on the formation of TS-1. Catalytic evaluations for 1-hexene epoxidation reaction revealed that TS-1 zeolite synthesized using amorphous SiO2 exhibited higher efficiency compared to those synthesized with TEOS and silicalite-1. Furthermore, we discovered that the framework Ti species undergoing dissolution and re-construction processes showed high activity for 1-hexene epoxidation.

Summary: The polarity of the reaction medium was found to play a crucial role in the deposition of poly(furfuryl alcohol) on the surface of the silica matrix, resulting in different growth directions depending on whether water or toluene was used. Water adsorption hindered the formation of a homogeneous polymer layer, while toluene favored monomer adsorption and facilitated the formation of a high-quality CMK-5 structure.

Summary: Fabrication of hierarchical SAPO-34 zeolites by chemical etching is a simple, cost-effective, and efficient method to overcome intrinsic diffusion limitations. The formation of hierarchical porosity through etching depends on the Si content and particle size of SAPO-34 samples. After etching, nanosized SAPO-34 zeolites with low Si content exhibit improved catalytic performance in methanol-to-olefin reactions due to enhanced mass transport and accessibility to active sites.

While the longitudinal conductivity of the 3D printed laminate is lower than that of a hot molded composite due to fiber breakages caused by the FDM process, the transverse and through-thickness electrical conductivities are higher due to increased fiber-to-fiber contact.

Summary: In this study, the adsorption properties of zeolites were systematically tuned by covalently attaching organic molecules to the interior micropore walls. The post-functionalization significantly improved the selectivities of CO2/CH4 and CO2/N-2, although it slightly reduced the CO2 adsorption capacity. Among the functionalized zeolites, the one functionalized with isopropylbenzene exhibited the highest selectivities, which can be attributed to the reduction of effective micropore diameters.

Summary: This paper explores the synthesis field of microporous zeolite-type materials and discusses the types of organic structure-directing agents (OSDA) that can be utilized for their crystallization. The study demonstrates the novelty of using hexamethylenetetramine (urotropine) as a structure-directing agent for open-framework silica polymorphs. By protonating urotropine in an acidic fluorine-containing medium, it becomes an efficient OSDA that leads to the formation of dodecasil 3C (MTN-type). The author also investigates OSDA-framework interactions in the MTN-type structure and proposes a unit cell model based on experimental data and Monte Carlo simulation.

Summary: This study demonstrates the improvement of mechanical properties and reduction of coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) in graphene oxide (GO)/epoxy (EP) nanocomposites by enhancing the interface between GO and EP through functionalization and incorporating rigid-flexible interphases. The results reveal that the SiO2-PEA-GO hybrid exhibits better strengthening and toughening effects, as well as lower CTE, compared to the PEA-GO hybrid due to the presence of rigid-flexible interfaces with higher bonding strength and better energy dissipation mechanisms. Additionally, the nanocomposites with longer polyetheramine (PEA) molecules in the rigid-flexible interphases demonstrate higher strength and toughness, while maintaining a lower CTE. This work provides a promising strategy for constructing adjustable flexible-rigid interfacial structures and offers potential in developing GO/EP nanocomposites with high mechanical properties and low CTE.
