General description
SMS is a silicon source for silica materials and can be used as a chemical intermediate for silica gel catalysts.
Application
Reactant for:
- Hydrothermal preparation of thorium uranium silicate (Th1-xUxSiO4) uranothorite solid solutions
- Fabrication of dense NaA zeolite coatings
- Reactant for preparation of tungsten modified silica as catalyst for liquid phase oxidation of styrene
Sodium metasilicate (SMS) has been used in the preparation of polypyrrole/sodium metasilicate (PPy/Na2SiO3) and polythiophene/sodium metasilicate (PT/Na2SiO3) composites, novel high dielectric constant materials for use in power electronic systems.
SMS can also be used:
SMS can also be used:
- To prepare NaZnSiO3OH, a novel chiral framework material which has potential application in ion exchange, adsorption and catalysis.
- As a low-cost alternative to tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) to synthesize highly ordered mesoporous silicas.
- To prepare geopolymer concrete.
