Open-cell mullite ceramic foams derived from porous geopolymer precursors with tailored porosity

Jiahuan Shao et al.

Summary: Porous geopolymer precursors were prepared using bauxite, fly ash, and metakaolin as raw materials, and porous mullite ceramics were obtained after ion exchange and high-temperature sintering. The concentration of blowing agent, ion-exchange time, and sintering temperature were found to have significant effects on the properties of the mullite ceramics. The resulting mullite foams exhibited a similar open-celled porous structure to the starting geopolymer precursors and had high porosity and compressive strength.

Snehlata Kumari et al.

Summary: A novel sulfated hierarchically porous geopolymer catalyst was prepared through sequential desilication, ion-exchange and sulfation techniques, resulting in significantly increased oxidation activity towards dibenzothiophene. The proposed electronic mechanism suggested a two-stage reaction process, with the catalyst formation and nucleophilic attack both elucidated with suitable kinetic models. Effective regeneration after three cycles demonstrated the potential for efficient oxidative desulfurization.

Development of porous geopolymers foamed by aluminum and zinc powders

D. Kioupis et al.

Summary: The study found that the foaming agent content is the determining factor of geopolymer properties, while alkali concentration plays a crucial role in pore morphology and strength development. Foaming with Aluminum is more effective than Zinc powder due to the release of more gases. Additionally, the incorporation of potassium ions contributes to the development of porous structures.
