Amine-functionalized SBA-15 materials were synthesized by a post synthesis method. Surface area and pore size decreased by attaching functional groups to the pore surface. Furthermore, pore volume was reduced with functionalization. The carbon and nitrogen content gradually increased with the number of amine groups in the silane precursors. Among the amine-functionalized SBA-15 materials, the SBA-15/TMSPDETA showed the highest removal activity given its high reactivity with formaldehyde.

Rapid growth in the industry has released large quantities of contaminants, particularly metal discharges into the environment. Heavy metal poisoning in water bodies has become a major problem due to its toxicity to living organisms. In this study, we developed a 3-chloropropyl triethoxysilane incorporated mesoporous silica nanoparticle (SBA-15) based adsorbent utilizing the sol-gel process and Pluronic 123 (P123) as a structure-directing surfactant.

A great deal of research has been carried out on the design of Pd-based catalysts in the direct synthesis of HO, mainly for the purpose of improving the HO selectivity by weakening the activation energy on the Pd active site and thus inhibiting the dissociation of the O-O bonds in O*, OOH*, and HOOH*. However, this often results in insufficient activation energy for the reaction between H and O on Pd, leading to difficulties in improving both the selectivity and productivity of HO simultaneously. Based on this, this study reports an efficient catalyst composed of amine-functionalized SBA-15-supported Pd.

Rising anthropogenic carbon emissions have dire environmental consequences, necessitating remediative approaches, which includes use of solid sorbents. Here, aminopolymers (poly(ethylene imine) (PEI) and poly(propylene imine) (PPI)) are supported within solid mesoporous MIL-101(Cr) to examine effects of support defect density on aminopolymer-MOF interactions for CO uptake and stability during uptake-regeneration cycles. Using simulated flue gas (10 % CO in He), MIL-101(Cr)-ρ (higher defect density) shows 33 % higher uptake capacity per gram adsorbent than MIL-101(Cr)-ρ (lower defect density) at 308 K, consistent with increased availability of undercoordinated Cr adsorption sites at missing linker defects.

Atrazine and glyphosate are two of the most used pesticides around the world causing serious water contamination. In this study, amine-functionalized Santa Barbara Amorphous-15 silica (SBA-15-NH) was synthesized and employed for the aqueous adsorption of atrazine and glyphosate. The adsorbent was mesoporous post-functionalization with lower surface area, pore volume, size, and stability when compared to the SBA-15.

Objectives: Controlled drug delivery using nanotechnology enhances drug targeting at the site of interest and prevents drug dispersal throughout the body. This study focused on loading a poorly water-soluble drug tamoxifen (TMX) into silica nanoparticles (SNPs) and amine-functionalized mesoporous silica nanoparticles (NH2-SBA-15).
Materials And Methods: SNPs were prepared according to the Stöber method and functionalized with an amine group using 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane (APTES) through a one-pot synthesis method to produce amine-functionalized mesoporous silica nanoparticles (NH2-SBA-15).
