Popis: | Different metal substituted (Y, Sn and Ce) MCM-41 materials were synthesized and detemplated by a low temperature surfactant removal methodology. All metal substituted materials showed an increase in the d(100) lattice parameter compared to the parent MCM-41 matrices. The increase depends on both the metal type and amount that is successfully incorporated by direct conventional hydrothermal synthesis. The metal modified MCM-41 materials were detemplated by an ultrasound assisted (US) ion-exchange process using methanol as the solvent (NH4NO3/US/MeOH). The effect of the ultrasound amplitude, extraction time and salt concentration were explored, and optimal values were determined for Y-MCM-41 detemplation (40 mM of NH4NO3, 60% of US amplitude and 15 min of adiabatic treatment). The removal percentage achieved with these values was in the following order: Y (97.7%) > Ce (94.4%) > Sn ;(92.1%) > Si (90.3%). Several techniques (SAXS, FTIR, TGA, H-1 MAS, Si-29 HPDEC MAS NMR and N-2 physisorption) demonstrated that the mesoporous materials keep their hexagonal structure and high surface area after the NH4NO3/US/MeOH surfactant extraction. Moreover, the thermal shrinkage of the structure was reduced in the following order: Si (0.6%) < Sn (4%) < Ce (5%) < Y (9%) < calcined samples (from 9 to 15%). The surfactant recovered was successfully recycled in a consecutive microwave assisted hydrothermal synthesis cycle (MW-HT). The synergy of different strategies (MW-HT synthesis, NH4NO3/US/MeOH surfactant removal and surfactant recovery) produces considerable time, energy and cost abatement, environmental impact reduction and promising scale up projections in the eco-friendly synthesis of MCM-41 materials. |
