BPPO-Based Anion Exchange Membranes for Acid Recovery via Diffusion Dialysis
(MDPI, 2017)
To reduce the environmental impact of acids present in various industrial wastes,
improved and robust anion exchange membranes (AEMs) are highly desired. Moreover, they should
exhibit high retention of salts, fast acid ...
Electroconductive Composites from Polystyrene Block Copolymers and Cu–Alumina Filler

Technological advancements and development of new materials may lead to the manufacture of sustainable energy-conducting devices used in the energy sector. This research attempts to fabricate novel electroconductive and ...
Mechanochemical Synthesis of CuO/MgAl2O4 and MgFe2O4 Spinels for Vanillin Production from Isoeugenol and Vanillyl Alcohol
(MDPI, 2019)
CuO/MgAl2O4 and CuO/MgFe2O4 catalysts were successfully synthesized with the use of spinel supports by a very simple and low-cost mechanochemical method. High-speed ball-milling was used to synthesize these catalyst supports ...
Sol-Gel Immobilisation of Lipases: Towards Active and Stable Biocatalysts for the Esterification of Valeric Acid
(MDPI, 2018)
Alkyl esters are high added value products useful in a wide range of industrial sectors.
A methodology based on a simple sol-gel approach (biosilicification) is herein proposed to encapsulate
enzymes in order to design ...
Nanostructured TiO2 Carbon Paste Based Sensor for Determination of Methyldopa
(MDPI, 2018)
Methyldopa is a catecholamine widely used in the treatment of mild to moderate
hypertension whose determination in pharmaceutical formulae is of upmost importance for dose
precision. Henceforth, a low-cost carbon paste ...
Highly ordered Nanomaterial Functionalized Copper Schiff Base Framework: Synthesis, Characterization, and Hydrogen Peroxide Decomposition Performance
(MDPI, 2017)
An immobilized copper Schiff base tridentate complex was prepared in three steps from SBA-15 supports. The immobilized copper nanocatalyst (heterogeneous catalyst) was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy ...
Design of Anion Exchange Membranes and Electrodialysis Studies for Water Desalination
(MDPI, 2016)
Anion exchange membranes are highly versatile and nowadays have many applications,
ranging from water treatment to sensing materials. The preparation of anion exchange
membranes (AEMs) from brominated poly(2,6-dimethyl ...
Mechanochemical Synthesis of TiO2 Nanocomposites as Photocatalysts for Benzyl Alcohol Photo-Oxidation
(MDPI, 2016)
TiO2 (anatase phase) has excellent photocatalytic performance and different methods
have been reported to overcome its main limitation of high band gap energy. In this work,
TiO2-magnetically-separable nanocomposites ...
Microwave-Assisted Conversion of Levulinic Acid to γ-Valerolactone Using Low-Loaded Supported Iron Oxide Nanoparticles on Porous Silicates
(MDPI, 2015)
The microwave-assisted conversion of levulinic acid (LA) has been studied
using low-loaded supported Fe-based catalysts on porous silicates. A very simple,
productive, and highly reproducible continuous flow method has ...
CO2 Separation and Capture Properties of Porous Carbonaceous Materials from Leather Residues
(MDPI, 2013)
Carbonaceous porous materials derived from leather skin residues have been
found to have excellent CO2 adsorption properties, with interestingly high gas selectivities
for CO2 (α > 200 at a gas composition of 15% CO2/85% ...
