Reactions of Methyl Iodide and Halopropanes with Na0 Treated and Untreated NaX and NaY Zeolites
(Cambridge University Press, 2005)Products formed from reactions of methyl iodide, 1-chloropropane, 1-iodopropane and 1-bromopropane with Na0 treated and untreated NaX and NaY zeolites were studied using solid state 13C NMR and IR spectroscopy. At room ... -
Effects of Possible Spin-Spin Interactions on EPR spectra of Cu2+ exchanged Faujasite–X (I)
(Cambridge University Press, 2005)The interpretation of the continuous wave electron paramagnetic resonance (CW-EPR) spectra of Cu2+ exchanged in Faujasite zeolite is not straightforward. Recent literature points to the role of both Cu2+ zeolite sites and ... -
Spectroscopic characterization of the metal cation siting and the adsorbate-cation interactions in copper (II) and cobalt (II) exchanged faujasite-X zeolite
(State University of New York at Binghamton, 2006)Toxic chemicals are abundant in the environment and their detection often requires very costly and time consuming methods. Where such molecules are able to interact with the transition metal cations, their characteristic ... -
Sodium X-type faujasite zeolite decomposition of dimethyl methylphosphonate (DMMP) to methylphosphonate: Nucleophilic zeolite reactions I
(Elsevier, 2006-06-20)Dimethyl methylphosphonate (DMMP), used extensively as a nerve agent simulant, strongly adsorbs in X-type faujasite zeolite and undergoes nucleophilic substitution by the supercage oxygens. Solid state magic angle spinning ... -
Linear, primary monohaloalkane chemistry in NaX and NaY faujasite zeolites with and without Na0-treatment: Zeolites as nucleophilic reagents II
(Elsevier, 2006-06-20)This work undertakes, we believe for the first time, a study of the chemistry of alkyl halides in Na0 treated zeolites. It concludes that untreated zeolites do nucleophilic chemistry to the degree that the host is electron ... -
Effects of cation siting and spin–spin interactions on the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) of Cu2+ exchanged X Faujasite zeolite
(North-Holland, 2006-11-21)Copper(II) exchanged Na X Faujasite zeolite was cation exchanged at levels from one Cu(II) in 30 unit cells (0.033 Cu(II)/UC) to 38 Cu(II) per unit cell (38 Cu/UC) and was examined by continuous wave and two-pulse and ... -
Effects of copper exchange levels on complexation of ammonia in Cu (II)-exchanged X zeolite
(The South African Chemical Institute, 2010)Copper (II)-exchanged faujasite-X zeolites at various loadings of copper per unit cell of zeolites were prepared and then exposed to ammonia. The copper ammine complexes of the various copper levels per unit cell were ... -
Sensoring Gaseous Ammonia using Cation Exchanged Faujasite-X Zeolite
(International Journal of BioChemiPhysics,, 2010)work presents a method that uses cheap, thermally stable and reusable cation exchanged solid zeolites to detect gaseous ammonia. Here, 24 separately exchanged Cu2+ and Co2+ cations per unit cell of 1.23 Si/Al Faujasite-X ... -
Optimizing Zeolitic Catalysis for Environmental Remediation
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2015-05-01)This chapter discusses the effects of chemical and physical properties of zeolites as they affect the catalytic efficacy and applications of the zeolites in environmental remediation. Heterogeneous catalysts, where zeolites ... -
