This book describes fundamental principles and experimental practices of the synthetic
chemistry and physical characterisation of crystalline microporous solids. It also provides a …

Aluminosilicates have traditionally been important materials for applications related to
adsorbents, water softeners, catalysis and mechanical and thermal reinforcement due to …

Luminescent perovskite nanosheets were prepared by exfoliation of single-or double-
layered perovskite oxides, K2Ln2Ti3O10, KLnNb2O7, and RbLnTa2O7 (Ln: lanthanide ion) …

Ion exchange is a proven process for radioactive wastewater decontamination, where
inorganic sorbents are ideal due to their thermal, chemical and radiation stability. This …

The hydrothermal synthesis and structural characterization of layered lanthanide silicates,
K3 [M1-a Ln a Si3O8 (OH) 2](M= Y3+, Tb3+; Ln= Eu3+, Er3+, Tb3+, and Gd3+), named AV …

Several structural families reported in this book can be described by using concepts of
modular crystallography (Thompson 1978; Veblen 1991; Merlino 1997; Ferraris et al. 2004) …

The frameworks of zeolites and related crystalline microporous oxide materials, such as
aluminophosphates, silicoaluminophosphates and metaloaluminophosphates, are built up …

Various lanthanide cations were intercalated into the interlayer of the exfoliated H x Ti (2-
x/4)□ x/4O4⊙ H2O (HTO) by the electrostatic self-assembly deposition (ESD) and layer-by …

Recent developments in the field of lanthanide guests in microporous zeolite-type hosts are
reviewed. It is shown that some of these new materials display interesting photoluminescent …

A new lanthanide silicate system, Na2K [Ln3Si6O18](Ln= Lu, Yb/Er, Lu/Eu, or Lu/Yb/Er),
comprising microcrystals embedded in an amorphous siliceous matrix, obtained by sintering …
