Determining the Surface Structure of Silicated Alumina Catalysts via Isotopic Enrichment and Dynamic Nuclear Polarization Surface-Enhanced NMR Spectroscopy

David Lyndon Emsley, Brennan James Walder, Jasmine Viger-Gravel

Isotopic enrichment of Si-29 and DNP-enhanced NMR spectroscopy are combined to determine the detailed surface structure of a silicated alumina catalyst. The significant sensitivity enhancement provided by DNP is vital to the acquisition of multinuclear and ...

A new quantification method based on SEM-EDS to assess fly ash composition and study the reaction of its individual components in hydrating cement paste

Karen Scrivener, Cyrille Dunant, Mohsen Ben Haha, Pawel Tadeusz Durdzinski

Calcareous fly ashes are high-potential reactive residues for blended cements, but their qualification and use in concrete are hindered by heterogeneity and variability. Current characterization often fails to identify the dominant, most reactive, amorphou ...

Atomic Description of the Interface between Silica and Alumina in Aluminosilicates through Dynamic Nuclear Polarization Surface-Enhanced NMR Spectroscopy and First-Principles Calculations

David Lyndon Emsley, Aaron James Rossini

Despite the widespread use of amorphous aluminosilicates (ASA) in various industrial catalysts, the nature of the interface between silica and alumina and the atomic structure of the catalytically active sites are still subject to debate. Here, by the use ...

Aluminium and alkali uptake in calcium silicate hydrates (C-S-H)

Émilie Michèle L'Hôpital

Calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H) is the main hydrate phase in Portland cements. Its composition varies depending on the Ca/Si ratio and on the presence of other ions such as aluminium (called CA- S-H) or alkalis. This thesis aimed to study the compositi ...

Infrared spectra of jennite and tobermorite from first-principles

Alfredo Pasquarello, Gabriele Sclauzero, Alexandre Vidmer

The infrared absorption spectra of jennite, tobermorite 14 angstrom, anomalous tobermorite 11 angstrom, and normal tobermorite 11 angstrom are simulated within a density-functional-theory scheme. The atomic coordinates and the cell parameters are optimized ...

Application of synchrotron radiation to the study of high-pressure zeolite phases. Case of scolecite

Philippe Gillet

Pressure-induced amorphization has already been observed in some framework silicates like quartz and feldspars. A similar crystal to highly disordered solid transition is reported in this study fora zeolite named scolecite, which is the calcium end-member ...

Phase changes and amorphization of zeolites at high pressures: The case of scolecite and mesolite

Philippe Gillet

Pressure-induced amorphous-phase transitions (amorphization) have been observed in framework silicates like quartz and feldspars. A similar crystalline to highly disordered solid phase transition is reported in this study for two zeolites, scolecite and me ...
