Abstract
We report a XAFS study of the Fe3+ local environment in Fe-silicalite as a function of the template burning temperature. We investigate the structural changes of the zeolitic structure, upon thermal treatments and interaction with NH3. Our XAFS results show that, before template burning, Fe3+ are in tetrahedral symmetry with 4 oxygens at 1.85 Å, while after template removal and in vacuum conditions, they exhibit a distorted tetrahedral symmetry with 3 oxygens at 1.87 Å, and one at 2.10 Å ; dosage of NH3 partially restore the tetrahedral symmetry of the site. These results are strongly supported by parallel IR, Raman, UV-Vis, TPR and EPR investigations and by recent theoretical simulations.

What is OpenURL?

The OpenURL standard is a protocol for transmission of metadata describing the resource that you wish to access. An OpenURL link contains article metadata and directs it to the OpenURL server of your choice. The OpenURL server can provide access to the resource and also offer complementary services (specific search engine, export of references...). The OpenURL link can be generated by different means.
  • If your librarian has set up your subscription with an OpenURL resolver, OpenURL links appear automatically on the abstract pages.
  • You can define your own OpenURL resolver with your EDPS Account. In this case your choice will be given priority over that of your library.
  • You can use an add-on for your browser (Firefox or I.E.) to display OpenURL links on a page (see http://www.openly.com/openurlref/). You should disable this module if you wish to use the OpenURL server that you or your library have defined.
