Synthesis,Mechanisms and Different Applications of Mesoporous Materials Based on Silica and Alumina

Abstract

ILICATE mesoporous materials have received widespread interest …..because of their potential applications. These novel materials, prepared either by soft-or hard-templating syntheses, become more and more important in many fields of science and technology such as adsorption, catalysis, separations, environmental processes, nanotechnology and biotechnology. According to IUPAC definition inorganic solids that contain pores with diameter in the size range of 2-50 nm are considered mesoporous materials, They also possess extremely high surface areas (>700 m 2 g −1) and narrow pore size distributions. This article review shows the current state of art and outlines the recent patents in mesoporous materials research in three general areas: synthesis, various mechanisms involved for porous structure formation and applications of mesoporous materials based on silica and alumina.

Polymers and Ceramics Biomaterials in Orthopedics and Dentistry: A Review Article

“…Alumina (Al 2 O 3 , Aluminum oxide) is widely accepted in orthopedics for many years due to its low wear and friction. For many years the term ceramic alone without other specification is indication to alumina [8]. Zirconia is considered as one of the highest strength ceramics that referred as steel ceramics which are suitable for orthopedic use.…”

Optimizing Rice Husk Silica Mass and Sonication Time for a More Efficient and Environmentally Friendly Synthesis of SBA-15

“…As a result, SBA-15 outperforms MCM-41 in terms of adsorbent and catalyst applications. Furthermore, the SBA-15 family has thicker pore walls, resulting in superior thermal and hydrothermal stability than the M41S and FSM-16 families [20][21][22].…”
