Zeolites
Zeolites V 1350Na-A (LTA) Zeolite Synthesis Directly from Alumatrane and Silatrane by Sol-Gel Microwave Techniques. -The title zeolite (1 µm crystal size) is synthesized via a sol-gel process and microwave heating technique using alumatrane and silatrane in NaOH or NaCl as precursor solution (Teflon vessel, various Si:Al ratios). The samples are characterized by DSC/TGA, FTIR, XRD, N 2 porosometry, and SEM. The NaOH concentration strongly affects the particle size and particle size distribution, but not the product composition. The moisture absorption ability of the synthesized Na-A zeolites is higher than that of the commercial one by approximately 20%. -(SATHUPUNYA, M.; GULARI, E.; WONGKASEMJIT*, S.; J.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
