Abstract
Adsorption is one of the most effective methods for controlling the concentration of VOCs pollution. In this work, the hierarchical NaY zeolites with size-controlled mesopores in the range of 2–5 nm are obtained via NH4HF2-etching and surfactant-templating process. By using the different cationic surfactant (CnTAB), we fabricate the surfactant-templated zeolite with controllable mesopores, and improve its adsorption capacity for toluene. In addition, the modified zeolite’s hydrophobicity is enhanced, and it maintains a high adsorption capacity in a complex humid environment.
期刊介绍:
Chemical Physics Letters has an open access mirror journal, Chemical Physics Letters: X, sharing the same aims and scope, editorial team, submission system and rigorous peer review.
Chemical Physics Letters publishes brief reports on molecules, interfaces, condensed phases, nanomaterials and nanostructures, polymers, biomolecular systems, and energy conversion and storage.
Criteria for publication are quality, urgency and impact. Further, experimental results reported in the journal have direct relevance for theory, and theoretical developments or non-routine computations relate directly to experiment. Manuscripts must satisfy these criteria and should not be minor extensions of previous work.
