Concern over the economics of accessing fossil fuel reserves, and widespread acceptance
of the anthropogenic origin of rising CO2 emissions and associated climate change from …

Sulfonic acid based mesostructures (SAMs) have been developed in recent years and have
important catalytic applications. The primary applications of these materials are in various …

In this work, the inclusion of free sulfonic acid groups in highly stable MOFs is explored. The
synthesized catalysts have been applied in a model esterification reaction. Two metal …

Biodiesel is a promising renewable alternative to fossil energy. Biodiesel production from
low-cost feedstock involves an essential pretreatment step–esterification of free fatty acids …

Alkylation of isoalkane and alkene owns a note-worthy position among octane improving
chemical conversions. Widely adopted catalysts (H 2 SO 4 and HF) for alkylation at industrial …

The combination of different therapies into a single platform has attracted increasing
attention as a potential synergistic tumor treatment. Herein, the fabrication of a novel folate …

The development of general and more sustainable heterogeneous catalytic processes for
Friedel–Crafts (FC) alkylation reactions is a key objective of interest for the synthesis of …

Hybrid polyethersulfone-based ultrafiltration membranes were prepared by incorporating
metal (Ag and Cu) and/or amine-functionalized mesostructured SBA-15 silica particles. The …

Mesoporous SBA-15 silica materials functionalized with several organic moieties, that
include different polarities and hydrophobicities, were investigated as matrices for controlled …

Utilization of macroalgae biomass for bioethanol production appears as an alternative
source to lignocellulosic materials. In this study, for the first time, Amberlyst (TM)-15 was …
