SCIENCE RESEARCH ON ISS RUSSIAN SEGMENT
TECHNICAL RESEARCH
SERVANTES SSM PROJECT NANOSLAB-2 EXPERIMENT
NANOSLAB-2 experiment is a part of the science research
program to be performed aboard the ISS RS by Pedro
Duque, ESA astronaut of Spanish nationality in the
frame of the SERVANTES
Project and continued NANOSLAB
experiment performed under the ODISSEA
Project. The European Space Agency is a customer for
the preparation and implementation of the scientific
program.
The experiment is conducted in MSG on the US Segment.
USED SCIENCE HARDWARE:
NANOSLAB Electronics box
NANOSLAB Sample container
Including 10 assemblies, each containing three cells
with experimental liquid samples
PURPOSE:
Study of the aggregation mechanism and kinetics
of ZSM-5 and Silicalite-1 nanoslabs into ZSM-5 / Silicalite-1
hybrid phases under micro-gravity conditions.
OBJECTIVE:
To obtain kinetic profiles of the formation of ZSM-5
/ Silicalite-1 phases under micro-gravity conditions.
EXPERIMENT RESULTS:
Processed samples located in NANOSLAB sample container.
