Production and Characterization of Open Cell Cordierite from Boron and Waste Materials by Geopolymer Method for the Emission After Treatment System of Diesel Engines
- First Published: 13 May 2025

Open porous geopolymer-based cordierite materials are produced due to the porous structure, temperature resistance, easy and low cost applications of geopolymer. For the composition of cordierite, waste boron clay, metakaolin, fly ash and magnesium carbonate are used, while keeping the geopolymerization temperature constant, sodium silicate, sodium hydroxide, polypropylene and glass fiber, hydrogen peroxide are used to create an alkaline environment. These materials are tested in a diesel engine to show the effective emission treatment abilities of the developed products.
Efficient Oxidative Polymerization of Hydroxytyrosol Using Horseradish Peroxidase Immobilized on a Magnetic Silica-Coated Nanocatalyst
- First Published: 29 May 2025

A magnetic Fe₃O₄@SiO₂@APTES@GA nanocatalyst is synthesized for horseradish peroxidase (HRP) immobilization, enabling efficient oxidative polymerization of hydroxytyrosol under mild conditions. The biocatalyst demonstrates high thermal and pH stability, strong reusability over 10 cycles, and effective polymerization performance. Characterizations including SEM, EDS, FTIR, TGA, and kinetic analyses confirmed successful catalyst fabrication and enhanced enzymatic functionality. This work contributes to sustainable green catalysis and nanobiotechnology applications.
