Photothermal catalysis represents a promising strategy to utilize the renewable energy source (e.g., solar energy) to drive chemical reactions more efficiently. Successful and efficient photothermal catalysis relies on the availability of ideal photothermal catalysts, which can provide both large areas of catalytically active surface …



We have measured acoustic V P and V S velocities of (Fe,Al)-bearing MgSiO 3 silicate glasses and an Icelandic basalt glass up to 25 GPa. The velocity profiles of the (Fe,Al)-bearing and basaltic silicate glasses display decreased V P and V S with minima at approximately 5 and 2 GPa, respectively, which could be explained by the mode …

Imports In 2022, Oman imported $6.92M in Silica sands and quartz sands, becoming the 34th largest importer of Silica sands and quartz sands in the world.



Copper oxide nanoparticles within hollow mesoporous silica spheres were prepared by binding/adsorbing Cu 2+ or [Cu(NH 3) 4 (H 2 O) 2] 2+ ions on the surface of carbon spheres, followed by formation of a mesoporous silica shell by sol-gel processing and calcination in air. The CuO nanoparticles can subsequently be converted into Cu 3 N …

Two kinds of metal ions (Cu +, Ni +) were implanted into the surface of a PI film at a fixed energy and dosage by an FM 2000 ion implanter.The implantations were performed at room temperature. In order to avoid the formation of great number of large particles on PI surface (Fig. S2, Supplementary materials), the implantation dosage was …



With the aim of studying the effect of support structure and preparation method on the hydrogenation performance of Ni-based catalysts. Hollow mesoporous silica spheres (hw-mSiO 2) containing tiny Ni nanoparticles highly dispersed on the inner surface (Ni@hw-mSiO 2) were synthesized by using carbon sphere as template with four …

Velocities of seismic compressional and shear waves in porous rocks under different saturation conditions are calculated theoretically and compared with laboratory data. For theoretical formulations, the rocks are represented by a solid matrix and pores of spherical and oblate spheroidal shapes. The effect of confining pressure on velocities is …





Introduction. Hollow mesoporous silica spheres with hierarchical structure have gained much attention in both fundamental research and practical fields such as gas adsorption [1], catalysis [2], controlled drug delivery [3] and chemical storage [4], due to characteristic properties including low density, high surface area and high pore volume [5].





Mono-dispersed mesoporous silica spheres with highly ordered hexagonal regularity were obtained with tetramethoxysilane (TMOS)–alkyltrimethylammonium chloride– methanol – water – sodium hydroxide.Just by changing the methanol ratio in the solvent, mono-dispersed particles were obtained with C 14 TMACl, C 16 TMACl and C 18 TMACl as …



The obtained hollow silica spheres were categorized into three types: (A) silica shell is relatively thin and spherical shape of the stacked particulates is clearly identified in the shell, (B) silica shell is similarly thin to type A, but shape of the stacked particulates is identified as half-round shape, and (C) silica shell is thick and the ...





Silica spheres provide large specific area and uniformity, and hence, these are used as a catalyst, adsorbent, and host materials. These spheres have large applications in chromatography and cosmetics. Hollow mesoporous nanospheres are used in drug delivery. Nanocoated nanoparticles are used in optics, optoelectronics, chemical …





Experimental results on ultrasonic sound velocities in silica aerogels as a function of molar ratios of tetramethoxysilane (TMOS) precursor, ammonia (NH 4 OH) catalyst, methanol (MeOH) solvent, and water are reported in this paper.
