the phenylthiourea-substituted triethoxysilane as a silane agent was synthesized and grafted on highly ordered nanoporous silica (lus-1) with a textured morphology and hexagonal array. this material (tu-lus-1) contained 0.8 mmol/g of soft base phenylthiourea group and surface area 760 m2g-1 and was able to adsorb 0.75 mmolhg/g of tu-lus-1 in endothermic reaction.

Highly self-ordered alumina nanopore arrays were fabricated using hard anodization technique in different mixtures of oxalic/phosphoric acid. The phosphoric acid concentration was varied from 0.05 to 0.3 M while the oxalic acid concentration was changed between 0.3 and 0.4 M. The self ordered nanoporous arrays were obtained in anodization voltage changing from 130 to 200 V. The interpore distan...
