Textile wastewater heavy metal pollution has become a severe environmental problem
worldwide. Metal ion inclusion in a dye molecule exhibits a bathochromic shift producing …

In this paper, we present the release of naproxen from hexagonal periodic mesoporous
silica SBA-15, which serves as a drug delivery system. Naproxen, the well-known …

In this study, graphene oxide (GO) was synthesized via modified Hummers' method, and
characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscope (AFM), X …

Herein, we report the systematic study on adsorption of heavy metal ions by ordered
mesoporous carbon CMK-3. This sorbent has been obtained by hard templating using SBA …

The aim of this paper was to evaluate the influence of surface chemistry on the structure and
adsorption capacities of functionalized mesoporous SBA-15 organosilicas. The silica …

Mesoporous silicas synthesized by the co-condensation of two and three different silica
monomers were synthesized by varying the time intervals between the addition of individual …

A new method of silica surface functionalization with carboxyl groups is proposed based on
the reaction between 2, 2-dimethyl-1, 3-dioxane-4, 6-dione (Meldrum's acid, MA) and the …

Removal of the surfactant template is the final step in the synthesis of silica-based
mesoporous materials. This step influences the properties of the final sample, including …

To investigate the effect of porous structure and surface chemistry on the efficiency of
pharmaceuticals removal four different types of pristine and amine-modified mesoporous …

A series of pyridine-functionalized mesoporous silicas have been prepared for the first time
via direct co-condensation of tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) and 2-(2-pyridyl) …
