Modelling of Ion Distribution in Single, Binary and Ternary Ion Exchanged Zeolite Used for Biomedical Applications

Abstract:

Based on the previously published sodium and Ag, Cu, Zn ion-exchange and re-excange experiments we took an attempt to modeling its structure. We also took in account the ion release experimental results and the rigorous survey of the literature data when we positioned the ions in zeolite crystal structure. Therefore the current study aimed to modeling the ion distribution of single, binary and ternary ion-exchanged zeolite systems used for antimicrobial purposes, where the variation of silver, copper and zinc is incorporated into the zeolite structure. The tool of modelling was “CrystalMaker6” developed by CrystalMaker Software Ltd.
