Templating of Mesoporous Molecular Sieves by Nonionic Polyethylene Oxide Surfactants

Bagshaw, Stephen A., Prouzet, Eric, Pinnavaia, Thomas J.·1995·Science

Abstract

Mesoporous silica molecular sieves have been prepared by the hydrolysis of tetraethylorthosilicate in the presence of low-cost, nontoxic, and biodegradable polyethylene oxide (PEO) surfactants, which act as the structure-directing (templating) agents. This nonionic, surfactant-neutral, inorganic-precursor templating pathway to mesostructures uses hydrogen bonding interactions between the hydrophilic surfaces of flexible rod- or worm-like micelles and Si(OC 2 H 5 ) 4-x (OH) x hydrolysis products to assemble an inorganic oxide framework. Disordered channel structures with uniform diameters ranging from 2.0 to 5.8 nanometers have been obtained by varying the size and structure of the surfactant molecules. Metal-substituted silica and pure alumina mesostructures have also been prepared by the hydrolysis of the corresponding alkoxides in the presence of PEO surfactants. These results suggest that nonionic templating may provide a general pathway for the preparation of mesoporous oxides.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
