Molecular sieving in a nanoporous b-oriented pure-silica-zeolite MFI monocrystal film.
The molecular sieving property of a continuous b-oriented pure-silica-zeolite (PSZ) MFI monocrystal film was demonstrated in a zeolite-modified electrode (ZME) configuration using redox molecules of different sizes. Ru(NH3)63+ (diameter approximately 5.5 A) was able to traverse the film, while Co(phen)32+ (diameter approximately 13.0 A) was completely excluded. This film has excellent adhesion to the electrode and is stable in strong acidic conditions.
