A PolyU research team from the Department of Applied Biology and Chemical Technology has successfully mapped the precise locations of individual and paired aluminium atoms in the zeolite framework.

Beam-sensitive zeolites are difficult to study at high resolution because traditional electron microscopy often damages or destroys their delicate crystal structures before meaningful data can be ...

Zeolites are now used in a wide range of applications, including as molecular sieves, catalysts and gas exchange. As the transport properties through the zeolite are heavily dependent on pore size and ...

Controlling the transport properties through a zeolite and the rates of diffusion and size of molecules that can be stored or transported are key in developing and optimizing zeolites for various ...

(Nanowerk News) Zeolites crystals, used among other things for refining petroleum to gasoline and biomass into biofuels, are the most-used catalysts by weight on the planet, and discovering mechanisms ...

Canonical wisdom in zeolite science says that zeolites are, at best, thermodynamically meta-stable. Zeolites, as we have covered before, are materials that are made of little pyramids of silica (SiO 2 ...

What does one do when they want a zeolite-like material, but with more space? A common conundrum, I know. Extending inorganic chemistry research that began in the early part of this decade, ...

Zeolites, crystalline materials widely used in the petrochemical industry, serve as pivotal catalysts in the production of fine chemicals, with aluminium being the source of active sites within ...
