Precisely controlled interconnected pore structure, thin framework, and high macroporosity of three-way catalyst particles using the template-assisted spray method.
The urgent need to mitigate climate change has spurred the development of efficient adsorbents for CO2 capture. Porous solid sorbents, especially those incorporating amine-modified porous silica materials, offer a promising alternative due their superior selectivity and reversibility. However, existing research focused on developing mesoporous adsorption applications, often overlooking role macropores. One critical challenge with is restriction in loading amount amine low pore volume, which...
Mass transfer is an essential process that can extend the performance and utilization of nanoporous materials in various applications. Therefore, improving mass has always attracted much interest, macroporous structures are currently being studied to enhance performance. The introduction into three-way catalysts (TWC), which widely utilized control emission polluted gases from vehicles, provides potential their property catalytic However, formation mechanism TWC particles not yet been...
The conventional pectin delivery systems in the colon are often impaired by a slow release rate. Nanostructured particles, especially porous ones, have gained popularity as drug owing to their high mass transfer efficiency. In this research, particles were synthesized carriers (using indomethacin model drug) via template-assisted spray drying.
