We review the structural chemistry and reactivity of copper-exchanged molecular sieves with
chabazite (CHA) topology, as an industrially applied catalyst in ammonia mediated …

This review addresses the most relevant aspects of vibrational spectroscopies (IR, Raman
and INS) applied to zeolites and zeotype materials. Surface Brønsted and Lewis acidity and …

Liquid hydrocarbon fuels play an essential part in the global energy chain, owing to their
high energy density and easy transportability. Olefins play a similar role in the production of …

There are many reasons to report on silica interacting with biomolecules. The most obvious
one is that on the Earth's crust, oxygen and silicon are the most abundant atomic species …

Starting from the late seventies, the progressively increased availability of synchrotron light
sources allowed the execution of experiments requiring a high X-ray flux in a continuous …

Surface hydroxyl groups are active centers in many catalytic reactions and can play an
important role during catalyst preparation. In this chapter, the application of infrared …

Cu-SSZ-13 has been characterized by different spectroscopic techniques and compared
with Cu-ZSM-5 and Cu-β with similar Si/Al and Cu/Al ratios and prepared by the same ion …

This critical review describes the reactivity of heterogeneous catalysts from the point of view
of four simple, but essential for Chemistry, molecules (namely dihydrogen, carbon …

In the typical NH3–SCR temperature range (100–500° C), ammonia is one of the main
adsorbed species on acidic sites of Cu-SSZ-13 catalyst. Therefore, the study of adsorbed …

This work outlines how treatment of zeolite H-ZSM-5 (Si/Al= 46) with NaOH may improve the
catalytic performance in the conversion of methanol to gasoline. The zeolite was treated with …
