Congratulations to PhD student Mustapha El Hariri El Nokab and our collaborators from the Pescarmona group at ENTEG, on a new collaborative paper being accepted and posted online. In this work, Mustapha used both 29Si and 27Al magic angle spinning ssNMR to compare different zeolite samples, characterizing their chemical structure and degree of order. Aside from our ssNMR data, the paper features numerous other spectroscopic and synthetic methods. For more information, see the paper!
