Mesoporous Silicas: Morphology Control and Template Synthesis Inside Large Pores of Silica Gel

  • Conference paper
Sol-Gel Methods for Materials Processing

Abstract

The influence of pH, nature of alcohol and initial components concentrations in micellar solution on the structural-adsorption characteristics of spherical mesoporous silicas has been investigated. The peculiarities of template synthesis of mesoporous silicas inside large pores of silica gel were also studied. Synthesized silicas were characterized by low-temperature nitrogen adsorption-desorption, X-ray diffraction and scanning electronic microscopy.
