Nanocasting method is one of the significant ways to synthesize highly ordered mesoporous metal oxides such as indium oxides having hexagonal or cubic mesoporous structures. Indium oxides can be utilized for methanol synthesis by CO₂ hydrogenation at a relatively higher temperature with a higher selectivity to methanol and stability. In the present study, the highly ordered mesoporous indium oxides were successfully synthesized and tested for CO2 hydrogenation to methanol at the reaction condition of T = 300 oC, P = 5.0 MPa, and the ordered mesoporous indium oxides showed a different catalytic activity according to its crystalline structures such as hexagonal or cubic structures as well as the mesoporous porosity. |
