Under operating conditions, the dynamics of water and ions confined within protonic
aluminosilicate zeolite micropores are responsible for many of their properties, including …

It is generally believed that the hydrolysis of Si—O—Si or Si—O—Al bonds is the key step in
the dissolution processes of most silicates and aluminosilicates. High level ab initio …

Nanosilica was prepared by precipitation method and was characterized by various
analytical tools. From transmission electron micrograph the silica particles are found to have …

The stability of aqueous complexes formed by Si and Ge with carboxylic acids (acetic,
