Tailoring the metal introduction sequence onto mesostructured silica nanoparticles framework: Effect on physicochemical properties and photoactivity

Grape-like mesostructured silica nanoparticle-decorated single-walled carbon nanotubes: silica growth and dye adsorptivity

“…The decrease in silanol groups with increasing amounts of CNTs, as shown at band 960 cm −1 , may explain the increase in Si-O-Si bonds, which most probably occur through dehydroxylation during calcination. Similar phenomena were observed in our previous study, in which Zn and/or Cu were loaded onto MSNs 26 . This observation is in agreement with decreases in the intensity of the XRD patterns as well as the surface area, verifying the role of CNTs in offering additional sites for silica growth.…”

New insights into self-modification of mesoporous titania nanoparticles for enhanced photoactivity: effect of microwave power density on formation of oxygen vacancies and Ti3+ defects

“…Recently, mesoporous materials, such as TiO 2 , SnO 2 , Al 2 O 3 , SiO 2 , and Fe 2 O 3 , 4,[11][12][13][14][15][16] have attracted much attention due to their high surface area and tunable pore diameter. 17,18 Their numerous morphologies and compositions, including nanoparticles, powders, thin lms, bers, and monoliths, make them favorable for various applications, such as environmental energy, biotechnology, and medicine.…”

Synthesis of 1,2‐Dicarbonyl‐3‐enes by Hydroacylation of 1‐Alkynes with Glyoxal Derivatives Using Metal–Organic Framework Cu/MOF‐74 as Heterogeneous Catalyst

“…[14][15][16][17][18][19][21][22][23][24] Although the commercialization of MOFs still remains ac hallenge, potential applicationso ft hese sponge-like materials in many fields have been extensively explored. [14,15,[25][26][27][28][29][30] MOFs as heterogeneouscatalysts have recently gaineds ignificant interestf rom both industry and academia. [31][32][33] Metal cations or functional groups on the organic linkers in the framework can be used to catalyze organic transformations, thus maximizing the opportunity for high dispersion and high loading of catalytically active sites.…”
