A novel technology of preparing zeoliltes based on solid-solid mass transformation mechanism is developed for the first time. By employing this technology, three different types of highly crystallized pentasil zeolites,ZSM-35 (FER-type), Silicalite-l(MFI-type) and Mordenite(MOR-type), are successfully synthesized in the solid system. In terms of commercial production, the technology'could simplify synthesis procedure and make the continuous production of zeolites possible, so as to improve the productivity. Additionally, it is environmentally friendly because the crystallization occurs in solid phase where there exists no pollution caused by waste liquid. Therefore, this technique provides us with a new indusr, rial process for the clean and continuous production of zeolites.The characteristics in synthesis chemistry and the crystallization mechanism involved in the technology are also discussed.
The polymerization of styrene in the media of MCM-41 is carried out by means of host-guest polymerization of styrene in MCM-41 mesoporous material with the aim to investigate the effects of interface and confinement of MCM-41 on host-guest interactions. Detailed physical properties of the mesoporous MCM-41 material containing polystyrene is characterized by XRD(X-ray diffraction), FT-IR(Fourier transform infrared), TGA(thermal gravimetric analysis), and nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms. We also find a great increase in the glass transition temperature of guest polystyrene influenced by the confined geometry of the host by differential scanning calorimetry(DSC).
