Silylation of the lanthanides-exchanged Zeotile-1 and Zeogrid with hexadecyl trimethoxysilanes via post-synthesis grafting was also studied. The results showed that the lanthanide's photoluminescence spectra and decays were modified due to silylation. The different silylation effects in Zeotile-1 and Zeogrid were correlated with the textural properties of the investigated materials. (C) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Trivalent europium (Eu) ions were immobilized via ion-exchange on these supports. The resulting materials were characterized using nitrogen adsorption isotherms at -196 degrees C, thermogravimetric analysis, SEM, TEM, FT-IR, PXRD, CP/MAS. (HSi)-H-1-Si-29 and P-31 NMR, DR-UV-vis as well as steady- state and time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy. The results evidenced that the co-polymerization of silicon and phosphorous yielded a unique morphology in these materials. Following calcination at 450 and 900 degrees C europium- exchanged silicon-phosphates with great surface area (BET=600-705 m(2) g(-1)) and 3.4 nm sized mesopores were obtained. The differences among the optical properties of the non-calcined europium materials such as the emission lifetimes, local environment at the europium sites or the relative contribution of the upper excited levels to the total photoluminescence were assigned to the surfactants used in the synthesis. Calcination of the silicon-phosphates at higher temperatures than 450 degrees C did not induce major changes in the structural properties: in contrast, photoluminescence properties of europium were markedly improved in terms of intensity and average lifetime.

The parent and hybrid, polystyrene coated Eu-NaY (Eu-NaY/PS) and Eu-ZSM-5 (Eu-ZSM-5/PS) zeolites were investigated by using thermal analysis, SEM, PXRD, FT-IR, DR-UV/Vis, steady state and time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy. FT-IR spectra evidenced for the interaction between the zeolitic hosts and polystyrene while the PXRD spectra supported for the presence of the polymer inside the channels/pores of Eu-NaY/PS and Eu-ZSM-5/PS materials. The optical properties of Eu-NaY/PS and Eu-ZSM-5/PS were significantly changed relative to those of the parent zeolites, giving further evidence for the presence of polymer inside zeolites. An interesting case is presented by NaY zeolite: following styrene polymerization, the polymer interacted selectively with one of the two main species co-existing inside zeolite while for ZSM-5 a similar effect was not observed.

A1 - Kumke, Michael Uwe A1 - Dobroiu, Svako A1 - Geßner, André A1 - Simon, Simion T1 - Effects of support and ligand on the photoluminescence properties of siliceous grafted europium complexes N2 - Europium ions were introduced in SiO2 and MCM-41 via two different pathways: (1) grafting the europium complexes with two alkoxide structures, 3-(2-imidazolin-1-yl)-propyl-triethoxysilane (IPTES) and aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (APTMS), and (2) functionalization of the SiO2 support with silicon 4- carboxylbutyltriethoxide followed by subsequent addition of the europium ions. The new materials were characterized using nitrogen adsorption isotherms at -196 degrees C, thermogravimetric analysis, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared, NMR, DR-UV-vis, steady-state emission and excitation, and time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy. Spectral changes found in the time-resolved photoluminscence spectra strongly point to the distribution of europium ions on a range of environments in both SiO2 and MCM-41 supports. The average europium photoluminescence lifetimes decrease within the order: Eu3+-IPTES/SiO2 (550 mu s) > Eu3+-APTMS/SiO2 (425 mu s) > Eu3+-APTMS/MCM-41 (370 mu s) > Eu3+-IPTES/MCM-41 (320 mu s) > Eu3+-CABES/SiO2 (240 mu s). The photoluminescence quantum efficiency has the largest value, of 22%, for Eu3+-IPTES/SiO2, while the most reduced value, of 9%, was measured for Eu3+-CABES/SiO2.

All samples were investigated by means of PXRD, FT-IR, TGA, physical adsorption, DR-UV-Vis and time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy. From the comparison of the photoluminescence decays of terbium-exchanged in parent (non-silylated) and silylated zeolites, it resulted that the silylation efficiency of the various alkoxysilanes is determined by the type of zeolite and follows the sequences: phenyl > vinyl > hexadecyl > parent for ZSM-5, hexadecyl a parts per thousand phenyl a parts per thousand vinyl > parent for MOR and hexadecyl > phenyl a parts per thousand vinyl > a parts per thousand parent for BEA zeolites, respectively.
