The approach used in present work allows achieving highly exfoliated state of layered silicate s through confinement of the charged nanobeads within the gallery of swollen pristine clay. The latter is principally promoted by ion exchange that involves polar functional groups on the surface of nanobeads and sodium cation in the interlayer gallery of layered silicates. Surface functionality of the nanobeads plays crucial role in establishment of strong interactions with silicate surface, and eventually, dispersion of individual silicate nanoplatelets.

This study has been focused on NO conversion for metal-incorporated silicates(Fe-silicate, Mn-silicate, and Fe-Mn-bimetallosilicate) with a similar MFI type. Used metallosilicates were prepared by the rapid crystallization method. Their catalytic performance for the conversion of NO under excess O2(10%) condition with the addition of hydrocarbon of low concentration(1,100ppm n-C8H18) were investigated. As a result, the NO conversion on the Fe-Mn-bimetallosilicate was enhanced compared with on the Fe- or Mn-silicates. Furthermore, the performances for NO concentration on Fe-Mn-bimetallosilicate more increased with an increased in n-C8H18 concentration, a decrease in NO concentration, and an increase in O2 concentration.

The extraction of $Al_2O_3$ from the backed mixture of grinded aluminium silicates with $H_2SO_4$ and required heating energy for the baking process has been investigated. The extraction ration of $Al_2O_3$ from baked kaolin and alunite being mixed with 70-80% $H_2SO_4$ at 12$0^{\circ}C$ for 3 hours was more than 90%, the yield was based on alumina component in the ore by extracted with water. The required heating energy was 1782 cal/300gr (Alunite), that is, when alunite ore treated with equivalent amount of 80% $H_2SO_4$, also left it for 75 minites at 12$0^{\circ}C$, The required heating energy was 22, 553 cal/200gr(Alunite) when the above sample was heated again at 15$0^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours.

Mesoporous silicate materials have been used as adsorbents due to the advantage of high specific surface area and regular mesopores. In this study, conventional mesoporous silicates (MCM-41, and SBA-15) were utilized as adsorbents for gaseous benzene, one of volatile organic compounds. In the results of the breakthrough curves of gaseous benzene, SBA-15 showed a higher benzene adsorption capacity in adsorption condition of this study. Especially, compared to benzene adsorption of zeolite X, that of SBA-15 was higher by a factor of 2.7. With increasing adsorption temperature, adsorption capacity for benzene of SBA-15 was decreased rapidly. This indicates that benzene adsorbed weakly on SBA-15.

The infrared spectra obtained in the region of $4000∼1200 $cm^{-1}$ has been measured for pyridine, tertiary butylamine, and ethylenediamine adsorbed on various cation-exchanged silicates at various degassing temperature. It was possible to distinguish between protonic and aprotonic acid sites of all cation-exchanged silicates which exhibited both Bronsted and Lewis acidity. The sodium form appeared to be the least reactive towards adsorbates. The relative ratio of the band intensities of tertiary butylamine was directly related to the polarizing power of exchanged cations. Ethylenediamine was less easily desorbed from silicate surface than tertiary butylamine due to the additional amino group to react with surface active site, and probably to form ether hydrogen bond with surface oxgen by liberating migrating proton besides the coordination bond with Lewis acid site and the formation of$NH3^+$ species with Bronsted acid site.

Due to the physical-chemical characteristics of some bottom ash (BA), there are technical, economic and environmental limitations to find a destination that will add value to it. In Brazil, this residue is eventually used for filling coal extraction pits or remains in sedimentation ponds, creating a susceptible panorama to environmental issues. The geopolymers binders are one of the alternatives to the proper use high amounts of these materials. In this work, geopolymeric binder pastes were produced with BA mixed to activators with different alkali contents (expressed as %Na₂O), as well as the incorporation of soluble silicates (Ms content). The production of binary geopolymeric pastes based on the use of two industrial wastes: fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) and aluminum anodizing sludge (AAS), was also assessed. The content in mass of BA/FCC and BA/AAS ranged from 100/0, 90/10; 80/20 and 70/30. Systems with soluble silicates as activator in a molar ratio SiO₂/Na₂O of 1.0 (Ms = 1.0) and Na₂O content of 15%, showed the best results of mechanical strength (42 MPa at day 28^th). The improvement is up to 5X when compared to NaOH based systems. For systems with partial replacement of BA of 10% of AAS and 20% of FCC (80/20), the presence of soluble silicates was also effective to increase compressive strength.

SiAlON glasses are silicates or alumino-silicates, containing Mg, Ca, Y or rare earth (RE) ions as modifiers, in which nitrogen atoms substitute for oxygen atoms in the glass network. These glasses are found as intergranular films and at triple point junctions in silicon nitride ceramics and these grain boundary phases affect their fracture behaviour. This paper provides an overview of the preparation of M-SiAlON glasses and outlines the effects of composition on properties. As nitrogen substitutes for oxygen in SiAlON glasses, increases are observed in glass transition temperatures, viscosities, elastic moduli and microhardness. These property changes are compared with known effects of grain boundary glass chemistry in silicon nitride ceramics. Oxide sintering additives provide conditions for liquid phase sintering, reacting with surface silica on the $Si_3N_4$ particles and some of the nitride to form SiAlON liquid phases which on cooling remain as intergranular glasses. Thermal expansion mismatch between the grain boundary glass and the silicon nitride causes residual stresses in the material which can be determined from bulk SiAlON glass properties. The tensile residual stresses in the glass phase increase with increasing Y:Al ratio and this correlates with increasing fracture toughness as a result of easier debonding at the glass/${\beta}-Si_3N_4$ interface.

High-temperature thermal insulation materials challenge extensive oxide candidates such as porus $SiO_2$, $Al_2O_3$, yttria-stabilized zirconia, and mullite, due to the needs of good mechanical, thermal, and chemical reliabilities at high temperatures simultaneously. Recently, porous rare earth (RE) silicates have been revealed to be excellent thermal insulators in harsh environments. These materials display attractive properties, including high porosity, moderately high compressive strength, low processing shrinkage (near-net-shaping), and very low thermal conductivity. The current critical challenge is to balance the excellent thermal insulation property (extremely high porosity) with their good mechanical properties, especially at high temperatures. Herein, we review the recent developments in processing techniques to achieve extremely high porosity and multiscale strengthening strategy, including solid solution strengthening and fiber reinforcement methods, for enhancing the mechanical properties of porous RE silicate ceramics. Highly porous RE silicates are highlighted as emerging high-temperature thermal insulators for extreme environments.

Soluble silica generated from acid leaching process is very difficult to filter and deceases the purity of products, and thus becomes one of hot issues in hydrometallurgy. This paper reviewed the dissolution and reactivities of silicates in acid solution, and the methods for treatment of soluble silica. Removal of silica with alkaline pre-treatment, crystallization to $SiO_2$ and precipitation behaviour of silica with coagulation under acid conditions were briefly described.
