Preparation of novel mesoporous carbon materials with tunable pore diameters using directly synthesized AISBA-15 materials
Large pore mesoporous carbon materials (MCA) have been prepared from AlSBA-15 templates synthesized at different temperatures. The obtained materials have been unambiguously characterized by XRD, HRTEM, and N-2 adsorption. It has been found that the specific surface area, pore volume and pore diameter of the MCA materials are higher as compared to CMK-3 mesoporous carbon.
