About Advanced Electron Microscopy Techniques for the Characterization of Tunable Zeolitic Architectures, PhD - at Faculty of Science, Charles University

Project Summary:

Zeolites are porous aluminosilicates finding their applications in the fields of catalysis, sorption and ion-exchange due to their exceptional properties i.e. high adsorption capacity, defined microporosity (resulting in molecular sieving effect), adjustable chemical composition, and possibility for post-synthesis modifications. Conventional synthesis of zeolites uses solvothermal method, limited in terms of controllability and design, however, ADOR (Assembly, Disassembly, Organization, Reassembly) synthesis approach [1-4] gives the possibility to design the final products and prepare different type of porous materials by post-synthesis manipulations (using 2D zeolite precursors) [4]. Design of novel zeolitic materials and their advanced characterization by electron microscopy [5] and electron diffraction methods are general aims of proposed PhD thesis. The synthesized materials will be investigated for their potential use e.g. in catalysis.
