A Novel Iron Silicate Mesoporous Material Synthesis and Its Characterization

Abstract

<jats:p>The mesoporous materials have variety of applications in several field particularly it has a main role in Catalysis, Petrochemical industries and Adsorption. Normally the porous material has well ordered 3Dimensional structure, huge surface area, high thermal stability and active acid sites. The properties of these materials can be varied because it is mostly depends on its template, synthesis method and isomorphous substitution of metal ions. There are two major mesoporous materials which are aluminosilicate and aluminophosphate. In this present investigation AlCl<jats:sub>3</jats:sub> and FeCl<jats:sub>3</jats:sub> are used in equal amount for the synthesis of mesoporous material. The synthesized material is characterized by FT-IR, XRD, TGA, BET, EDAX and TPD. Morphological images were studied by SEM. These characterization techniques confirm the formation of mesoporous molecular sieves.</jats:p>

A Green Route for Sustainable Nanoporous Solid Acid Catalyst Synthesis Using Bio Template and Analysis of Its Progressive Transformation of CO2

“…The material shows the fundamental vibrations of symmetric stretching and bending vibrations at 790, 430 cm -1 respectively. The distinctive peak at 1086 cm -1 proves the formation of tetrahedral frame work [26][27][28][29] . This spectrum confirms that the tetrahedral frame work is stable after calcination at higher temperature.…”

“…From thermogravimetry (Figure 4), the weight change is observed from 50 o C to 950 o C. The first weight loss observed from 100 o C to 220 o C, it is due to the elimination of reactive and non-reactive water molecules from the outer layer and pores of the catalyst evidenced by endothermic peaks of DTA curves [27][28] . The second weight loss arises at 500 o C due to entire elimination of bio-template from the cavities with evidence of exothermic peak [30][31] .…”
