PROJECT TITLE: POLYMER COATED ORDERED MESOPOROUS CARBONS WITH MULTIFUNCTIONAL PROPERTIES
Project summary The proposed project entitled “Polymer coated ordered mesoporous carbons with multifunctional properties” will be developed in Institute of excellence of the Romanian Academy by a team formed from the project leader and a tutor with complementarily expertise required for the project development, e.g. mesoporous carbons and polymer science, respectively. The aim of this research project is to prepare polymer-coverd ordered mesoporous carbon materials with high adsorption properties, appropriate for decontamination of industrial water and haemoperfusion. The project is organized in three research phases dealing, respectively, with (a) the preparation of mesoporous nanoparticles; (b) functionalisation of the particle by chemical treatment and polymer coating; (c) characterization of structure, physico-chemical and the sorption properties of the functional particles. Expected results: three ISI papers; six conference presentations.
- To establish a reproducible method for the synthesis of highly ordered mesoporous carbons with designed architecture and showing high sorption properties; - To provide a treatment method affording high functionality (surface reactivity and wettability) of the pore surfaces; - To optimize the preparation conditions of polymer-carbon systems in order to minimize the particle agglomeration and to maintain appropriate porosity; - To establish preparation-structure-properties correlations and to check the end use properties of the optimized materials.
