Paving the way for Methane Hydrate formation in the confined nanospace of met...
The main goal of the present proposal is to evaluate the methane hydrate formation in nanocavities of ZIF-90 using inelastic neutron scattering (INS) measurements. Recently, we... -
Clarifying the interaction between cyclic oxime and acidic silanols in hierar...
Caprolactam (CL) is a high-value chemical and precursor to nylon-6. Industrially, a harsh, liquid acid catalyst transforms C6-oxime to CL but due to the risk and inefficiency of... -
Role of acidic silanols and Brønsted acid sites in hierarchically porous SAPO...
The commercially important polymer Nylon 6 is manufactured by ring-opening polymerization of eta-caprolactam. Industrially, eta-caprolactam is conventionally made by the... -

Neutron spectroscopy study of the C-H vibrational modes in defective graphene
We have conducted an extended study of hydrogenated defective graphene, synthesized by chemical routes (hydrogenated thermal exfoliated graphite oxide or H-TEGO), including... -
Investigating the diffusion of cyclic oximes in hierarchically-porous catalys...
Caprolactam (CL) is a high-value chemical precursor to nylon-6. On an industrial scale an aggressive liquid-acid catalyst is used to transform C6-oxime to CL. Due to... -
Characterisation of intermediates in the production of eta-caprolactam
The commercially important polymer Nylon 6 is manufactured by ring-opening polymerization of eta-caprolactam. Industrially, eta-caprolactam is made by the Beckmann rearrangement... -
Surface properties of nanodiamonds produced by the laser assisted technique
Diamond nanoparticles (nanodiamonds) are a constituent of diverse systems including interstellar dusts and meteorites or carbonaceous residues of detonation. Nanodiamonds have a... -
