Mechanisms of the formation of ordered mesoporous, inorganic materials from organised molecular assemblies

Obiettivo



The synthesis of well ordered mesoporous materials with defined porosities, scientists at the post-doctoral level in establishing the mechanisms of the surface areas and acidities is currently attracting world-wide interest, and their production is of considerable interest for European Industry. formation of the organized assemblies and their conversion to the porous solids. Although in some cases it will be worthwhile for the researcher to However, the mechanisms of formation through organized inorganic/organic molecular assemblies have not been properly established - thus placing stay in one laboratory we are also keen to promote a rotation scheme in severe limits on the ability of scientists to pursue logical pathways to which the researcher spends 18 months in two laboratories. Shorter stays of one month duration are suitable for closely defined experiments. We also the synthesis of useful materials. It is the principal objective of this feel confident that the employment prospects of the researchers at the end project to obtain a fundamental understanding of the sequence of events leading to the final products, by bringing together a unique combination of the project are good because the industries will be able to use the mechanisms so established to develop materials in later projects. skills represented by various partners. The mechanistic knowledge thus obtained will be related to the structures and properties of the organized assemblies and of the final mesoporous substances. We will start by examining the silica-based systems, since there is already a basis of knowledge in this area, albeit incomplete. In year 2, the project will examine zirconias to establish whether the same or different mechanisms operate. In the final year. we will turn our attention to vanadias, in particular to assess the role of changes in the oxidation state of the metal. At the on set of the project we wish to develop some new techniques for studying the mechanisms. In particular, in SITU techniques will be utilised where possible. For example, the novel tubular reactor system being developed at Frankfurt will be available for other partners allows for data accumulation under steady state conditions. The partners combine multi-disciplinary expertise in depth together with experience and state of the art equipment for a wide range of synthetic and characterisation techniques.
