Description
Zeolites are porous alumino-silicate materials with properties that result in a wide range of industrial applications. Predictions of zeolite properties can enhance higher performance and economic value for many industries. In this research, the structure and ion exchange behaviour of synthetic zeolite N is modelled using computational chemistry techniques. Modelled outcomes are compared with experimental data that are also obtained on natural zeolites from two Australian deposits. This research shows that a precise understanding and prediction of zeolite chemical and physical properties can be achieved by correlated atomic-scale modelling and high-quality experimental techniques.
Impact and interest:
Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
Full-text downloads:
Full-text downloads displays the total number of times this work’s files (e.g., a PDF) have been downloaded from QUT ePrints as well as the number of downloads in the previous 365 days. The count includes downloads for all files if a work has more than one.
