| 24-Jun-22 | Dealing with Disordered Zeolite Framework Structures | |||||
| Zeolite materials with disordered framework structures cannot be described properly within the layout of the Database of Zeolite Structures, because that layout assumes that the framework structures are perfectly ordered in 3 dimensions. In view of the fact that there are an increasing number of such zeolites, a second database, designed specifically to describe such materials, has been created and integrated into the Database of Zeolite Structures under the tab Intergrowths. These frameworks are not assigned 3-letter codes, but are grouped into Intergrowth Families that share a common Periodic Building Unit (PerBU) that can be connected in different ways.
The hard work has been done by Christian Baerlocher: project coordination, structure of the database, construction of webpages Lynne McCusker: creation of images for the connectivity patterns and the polymorphs Hermann Gies: simulation of XRD powder patterns for intergrowth series using DIFFaX Bernd Marler: providing the measured powder patterns and input for the disorder examples The database is still under development, but a first version has now been uploaded and made available to the zeolite community. Corrections, comments, suggestions and other feedback are welcome, and should be sent directly to Christian Baerlocher. |

| 22-Mar-21 | Francis Taulelle (1951-2021) | |||||
| It is with great sadness that we must report that one of our members, Prof. Francis Taulelle, passed
away on February 17, 2021.
His experience in the application of modern NMR techniques to address subtleties in zeolite structures was a valuable addition to the expertise of the Structure Commission, and his input will be sorely missed. Indeed it was his enthusiasm for combining different techniques to solve scientific puzzles that led to the SMARTER conference series that started in 2007 in Aveiro, Portugal. He was passionate about looking at the larger picture, and encouraging scientists from different fields to collaborate to achieve this goal. Francis' took great pleasure in scientific discussions, often contributing unusual ideas and questions. We are all saddened that we will not be able to continue these animated discussions with him in the future. |
