Selective oxidation of organics over an efficient heterogeneous catalyst under mild liquid phase conditions is a very demanding chemical reaction. Herein, we first report the modification surface mesoporous silica MCM-41 material by phosphate for incorporation Ti(IV) in framework to obtain highly ordered 2D hexagonal STP-1. STP-1 has been synthesized using tetraethyl orthosilicate, triethyl pho...

Mesoporous TiO(2) spheres with a large surface area and rich surface hydroxyl groups have been prepared through a light-driven synthetic strategy, and the as-prepared mesoporous material is able to convert urea to carbon nitride efficiently under a mild condition.

Trypsin has been encapsulated in the mesopores of a hierarchical mesoporous silica material synthesized via Cu(I) catalyzed azide-alkyne click reaction between azide functionalized large spherical SBA-15 particles and alkyne functionalized mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs). Encapsulated trypsin functions as an efficient biocatalyst and can be recycled several times.

The synthesis of a mesoporous material with uniform mesopore diameters and crystalline MFI zeolite walls has been achieved, simply by seeding the multiammonium surfactant-directed synthesis with bulk zeolite crystals. The bulk seeds disappeared in the final product. As a result of seeding, the mesoporous zeolites could be generated rapidly even at high Al content.

Wormhole-like mesoporous tin oxide was synthesized via a facile evaporation-induced self-assembly (EISA) method, and the gas-sensing properties were evaluated for different target gases. The effect of calcination temperature on gas-sensing properties of mesoporous tin oxide was investigated. The results demonstrate that the mesoporous tin oxide sensor calcined at 400 °C exhibits remarkable sele...

In the last decade, significant research efforts were devoted to obtaining materials with welldefined nanostructures for a wide range of applications (Hamley, 2003; Soler-Illia et al., 2002; Paul & Sharma, 2006). Mesoporous silica materials like M41S, HMS, SBAn, FSM, and MSU, among others, are a fairly new type of material that has pores in the mesoscopic range of 2–50 nm (Wan et al., 2007). Th...
