Paul Auster, 1994 Mr. Verügo resumo Os materiais microporosos e mesoporosos são potenciais catalisadores heterogéneos. Os zeólitos e outros materiais microporosos do tipo zeolítico tradicionais, têm átomos tetracoordenados no esqueleto. Nos últimos anos, um vasto número de titanossilicatos contendo Ti(IV) hexacoordenado e Si(IV) tetracoordenado, com estruturas tridimensionais, têm sido alvo de grande interesse. Um dos objectivos desta tese foi preparar silicatos microporosos, contendo átomos metálicos com número de coordenação superior a quatro, e possuindo quer novas estruturas quer propriedades físicas e químicas interessantes. Neste contexto, foi preparado um novo ítriossilicato de sódio, AV-1, análogo do raro mineral montregianite, Na4K2Y2Si16O38·10H2O. Este material é o primeiro sólido microporoso que contem quantidades estequiométricas de sódio (e ítrio) no esqueleto. Foi, também, sintetizado um silicato de cério, AV-5, análogo estrutural do mineral montregianite com potencial aplicação em optoelectrónica. Nesta tese é, ainda, descrita a síntese e caracterização estrutural de um silicato de cálcio hidratado, AV-2, análogo do raro mineral rhodesite (K2Ca4Na2Si16O38.12H2O). Na continuação do trabalho desenvolvido em Aveiro na síntese de novos titanossilicatos surgiu o interesse de preparar novos zirconossilicatos microporosos por síntese hidrotérmica. Foram preparados dois novos materiais análogos dos minerais petarasite Na5Zr 2Si3O18(Cl,OH)·2H2O (AV-3) e kostylevite, K2Si3O9·H2O (AV-8). Foram, também, obtidos análogos sintéticos dos minerais parakeldyshite e wadeite, por calcinação a alta temperatura de AV-3 e de umbite sintética. A heterogeneização de complexos organometálicos na superfície de materiais mesoporosos do tipo M41S permite ix associar a grande actividade catalítica e a presença de sítios activos localizados típicos dos complexos organometálicos, com a robustez e fácil separação, características dos materiais mesoporosos siliciosos. Nesta dissertação relata-se a derivatização dos materiais MCM-41 e MCM-48 através da 5 5 reacção de [SiMe2{(h -C5H4)2}]Fe e [SiMe2{(h -C5H4)2}]TiCl2 com os grupos silanol das superfícies mesoporosas. Os materiais MCMs derivatizados com ansa-titanoceno foram testados na epoxidação de cicloocteno a 323 K na presença de hidrogenoperóxido de t-butilo. Estudou-se a heterogeneização dos sais de complexos com ligação metal-metal [Mo 2(MeCN)10][BF4]4, [Mo 2(m-O2CMe)2(MeCN)6][BF4]2 e [Mo2(m- O2CMe)2(dppa)2(MeCN)2][BF4]2 via imobilização nos canais do MCM-41. A imobilização dos catalisadores homogéneos na superfície do MCM-41 envolve a saída dos ligandos nitrilo lábeis, preferencialmente em posição axial, através da reacção com os grupos Si-OH da sílica. Verificou-se que a ligação Mo-Mo se mantém intacta nos produtos finais. É provável que estes materiais sejam eficientes catalisadores heterogéneos em reacções de polimerização. As técnicas de caracterização utilizadas nesta tese foram a difracção de raios-X de pós, a microscopia electrónica de varrimento, a espectroscopia de ressonância magnética nuclear do estado sólido (núcleos 13C, 23Na e 29Si), as espectroscopias de Raman e infravermelho com transformadas de Fourier, as análises termogravimétricas e as análises de adsorção de água e azoto. x abstract Microporous and mesoporous materials have great potential to be used as inorganic heterogeneous catalysts. Traditional zeolites and microporous zeolite-type materials contain four-coordinated framework atoms. A large number of titanosilicates containing six-coordinated Ti(IV) atoms and four- coordinated Si(IV) atoms, with three-dimensional structures, are extensively described in the literature. One of the aims of this thesis was to prepare new microporous framework oxide materials, containing metal atoms in different coordinations, which may possess novel structures and display interesting physical and chemical properties. In this context, a sodium yttrium silicate analogue of the rare mineral montregianite, Na4K2Y2Si16O38·10H2O (AV-1), was prepared. This material is the first microporous solid containing stoichiometric amounts of framework sodium (and yttrium) cations. A cerium silicate (AV-5) structural analogue of montregianite with potential for applications in optoelectronics was also prepared. In addition, the synthesis and structural characterisation of a calcium silicate hydrate analogue of the rare mineral rhodesite, K2Ca4Na2Si16O38.12H2O, (AV-2) is reported. As a natural extension of the work carried out on microporous titanosilicates, microporous zirconosilicates were prepared via hydrothermal synthesis. Two new synthetic analogues of the minerals petarasite (AV-3), Na5Zr2Si3O18(Cl,OH)·2H2O, and kostylevite (AV-8), K2Si3O9·H2O, were obtained. The preparation of analogues of parakeldyshite and Zr/Ti-wadeite was achieved by calcination at high temperature of AV-3 and synthetic Zr/Ti-umbite. The heterogenisation of homogeneous catalysts on the surfaces of mesoporous materials of the M41S type attempts to xi bring together the advantages of high activity and single-site active centres of homogeneous catalysts, and the robustness and easy separation of mesoporous siliceous material. The derivatisation of MCM-41 and 5 MCM-48 materials by covalent reaction of [SiMe 2{(h -C5H4)2}]Fe 5 and [SiMe2{(h -C5H4)2}]TiCl2 with pendant silanol groups is reported. Ti-modified mesoporous silicas were screened as catalysts for the epoxidation of cyclooctene at 323 K with t- butylhydroperoxide. Potential polymerisation catalysts were prepared by grafting of dimolybdenum complexes [Mo 2(MeCN)10][BF4]4, [Mo 2(m-O2CMe)2(MeCN)6][BF4]2 and [Mo 2(m- O2CMe)2(dppa)2(MeCN)2][BF4]2 onto the surface of purely siliceous MCM-41. The mechanism of surface attachment involves the displacement of labile acetonitrile ligands, most likely in the axially coordinated position, from the complexes by reaction with isolated nucleophilic silanol groups at the silica surface. The characterisation techniques used in this work were powder

  • Synthesis and Adsorption Behavior of Microporous Iron-Doped Sodium Zirconosilicate with the Structure of Elpidite
    Article Synthesis and Adsorption Behavior of Microporous Iron-Doped Sodium Zirconosilicate with the Structure of Elpidite Emad Elshehy Nuclear Materials Authority, P.O. Box 530, El-Maadi, Cairo 11728, Egypt; [email protected]; Tel.: +20-10-0819-7997 Abstract: Decontamination of water from radionuclides contaminants is a key priority in environ- mental cleanup and requires intensive effort to be cleared. In this paper, a microporous iron-doped zeolite-like sodium zirconosilicate (F@SZS) was designed through hydrothermal synthesis with various Si/Zr ratios of 5, 10, and 20, respectively. The synthesized materials of F@SZS materials were well characterized by various techniques such as XRD, SEM, TEM, and N2 adsorption–desorption measurements. Furthermore, the F@SZS-5 and F@SZS-10 samples had a crystalline structure re- lated to the Zr–O–Si bond, unlike the F@SZS-20 which had an overall amorphous structure. The fabricated F@SZS-5 nanocomposite showed a superb capability to remove cesium ions from ultra- dilute concentrations, and the maximum adsorption capacity was 21.5 mg g–1 at natural pH values through an ion exchange mechanism. The results of cesium ions adsorption were found to follow the pseudo-first-order kinetics and the Langmuir isotherm model. The microporous iron-doped sodium zirconosilicate is described as an adsorbent candidate for the removal of ultra-traces concentrations of Cs(I) ions.
