Inorganic Crystalline Porous
Materials Group:
Our research is directed toward the synthesis and then application
of novel zeolitic and molecular sieve phases for catalysis and separations.
Areas of focus include (1) the predictive modeling and synthesis of
inorganic Aluminosilicate and nonaluminosilicate crystalline zeolitic
bulk phases and membranes for catalysis and separations of light gases
or organic molecules; (2) the synthesis and characterization of novel
inorganic molecular sieve materials and waste forms for the selection and storage of radiological isotopes for GNEP; and (3) energy and cost efficient catalytic reactive separations
of industrial feedstock chemicals. Analysis methods include powder
and single crystal X-ray diffraction, electron microscopy (SEM, TEM),
MAS NMR, GC/MS, thermal (TGA/DTA) and elemental analyses, and permeation
studies.
