Guidelines for Mastering the Properties of Molecular Sieves: Relationship between the Physicochemical Properties of Zeolitic Systems and Their Low Dimensionality

Low dimensionality is a multifarious concept which applies to very diversified materials. Thus, examples of low-dimensional systems are structures with one or several layers, single lines or patterns of lines, and small clusters isolated or dispersed in solid systems. Such low­ dimensional features can be produced in a wide variety of materials systems with a broad spectrum of scientific and practical interests. These features, in turn, induce specific properties and, particularly, specific...
