Dam-1 Molecular Sieve Forms, Fibers and Films
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 February 2011
Abstract
The evolution of new molecular sieves and associated applications has generated a greater demand for new ways to manipulate and configure nanoporous materials. The required form of a molecular sieve may involve dramatically different length scales, ranging from shaped particles to fibers and continuous coatings. Various examples of these forms based on Dallas Amorphous Materials one (DAM-1), which was synthesized using a water soluble Vitamin E TPGS as the template, will be illustrated. In addition to potential drug delivery applications for this inorganic/organic composite, the hierarchical forms of DAM-1 may be employed in areas ranging from catalysis to sensors. The morphogenesis of DAM-1 shaped particles and its applications in molecular recognition and optical sensing will be described along with a novel process for spinning DAM-1 molecular sieve fibers. Additionally, our patented method for the fabrication of zeolite membranes, using pulsed laser deposition (PLD) will be discussed.
