Course content
Following topics are discussed in the course - structures of zeolites, principles of their synthesis, properties, basic principles of experimental techniques utilized for the studies of structues and properties of zeolites, application of zoelites in adsorption and catalysis. Mesoporous molecular sieves and metal-organic-frameworks are discussed to assess advatanges and disadvantages of these materials.
