The different local environment of atoms exposed at solid surfaces compared to atoms in the
bulk is the driving force for many physical and chemical processes. There are two …

Nanotechnology, the engineering and art of manipulating matter at the nanoscale (1–100
nm), offers the potential of novel nanomaterials for treatment of surface water, groundwater …

Water scarcity is being recognized as a present and future threat to human activity and as a
consequence water purification technologies are gaining major attention worldwide …

Nanocrystalline zeolites are porous nanomaterials with crystal sizes of less than 100 nm that
possess unique external and internal surface reactivity. Nanocrystalline zeolites, such as …

Soil pollution is an increasingly urgent problem for the global environment. Soil can be
contaminated with potential toxic metals from many anthropogenic activities, besides fossil …

Hierarchical porous particles aggregated from primary zeolite NaY nanocrystals were
hydrothermally synthesized via a three-stage temperature control strategy, without adding …

The preparation of zeolites has long been viewed as an empirical practice in which the
impact of numerous synthesis parameters on complex pathways of crystallization remains …

Herein, we proposed an affordable and facile way of treating the hardening of water from
local groundwater and seawater sources. This was facilitated by synthesizing zeolitic …

The advent of porous materials, in particular zeolitic nanoparticles, has opened up
unprecedented putative research avenues in nanomedicine. Zeolites with intracrystal …

The article discusses the use of multivalent surfactant as a cap** agent for the synthesis of
zeolite nanocrystal. It states that the surfactant prevents crystal growth by covering …
