Synthesis of MCM-41 by Hydrothermal and Sonochemical Methods and Characterization
Abstract
One of the known groups of mesoporous materials is MCM-41 that has been applied as catalyst for various chemical reactions [1-2]. In this work, using water as solvent, cetylytrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) as template, sodium silicate and tetraethylortosilicate (TEOS) as silica source, mesoporous MCM-41 were synthesized by direct hydrothermal synthesis method and sonochemical synthesis method. Furthermore, the effects of silica source and synthesis method on the distribution of products were studied. Both methods were successful yielding catalysts. Prepared mesoporous molecular sieves were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Braunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area. The synthesized MCM-41 materials were used as catalyst in the pyrolysis of scrap mobile phone of printed circuits boards and the efficiency of their discussed. In experiments when used sodium silicate as silica source, the synthesized MCM-41 by hydrothermal method was called as M-1, the synthesized MCM-41 by sonochemical method was called as M-2. Similarly, when used TEOS as silica source, the synthesized MCM-41 by hydrothermal method was called as M-3, the synthesized
MCM-41 by sonochemical method was called as M-4.
The XRD pattern of M-1, M-2, M-3 and M-4 is shown in Figure 1. XRD spectrum of MCM-41 sample showed a sharp peak (100) and three reflection peaks corresponding to (110), (200) and (210), which meant that the sample had an ordered pore structure [3-6]. Both of the synthesized MCM-41, showed a sharp XRD peak around 2θ=2° and few weak peaks in 2θ= 3-5°, which indicated well-hexagonal structure of
MCM-41.
Figure 2 shows the SEM image of the synthesized M-1, M-2, M-3 and M-4. SEM results show each spherical aggregate is composed of several of individual small nanoparticles with uniform diameters of about 60 nm. The silica sources influence the shape of the produced MCM-41. Fig. 2 (a-b) demonstrates that the particles are extensively agglomerated. Also it reveals the spherical morphology of the particles. The sponge-like appearance of the MCM-41 particles is seen in Fig. 2 (c-d). BET surface area values and pore volume date are listed in Table 1. It is clearly seen from Table 1 that using the sonochemical for synthesis of MCM-41 a greater increase of surface area and pore volume is resulted.
