Inorganic membranes have been employed for a variety of gas separation applications, including hydrogen purification and carbon dioxide sequestration. A major limiting factor to the application of inorganic membranes is the frequent occurrence of defects which limits reproducibility, stability, an…

Zeolites are microporous structures with uses such as absorbents and catalysts. For example, in the petrochemical industry for fluid catalytic cracking and hydrocracking, absorbants to trap fission products from nuclear waste, and for domestic uses such as in detergents and cat litter. The materia…
