It is possible to say that zeolites are the most widely used catalysts in industry. They are
crystalline microporous materials which have become extremely successful as catalysts for …

Mesoporous organic–inorganic hybrid materials, a new class of materials characterized by
large specific surface areas and pore sizes between 2 and 15 nm, have been obtained …

The declared objective of this book is to provide an introductory review of the various
theoretical and practical aspects of adsorption by powders and porous solids with particular …

A family of highly ordered mesoporous (20− 300 Å) silica structures have been synthesized
by the use of commercially available nonionic alkyl poly (ethylene oxide)(PEO) oligomeric …

An account is presented of the mechanistic aspects of hydrothermal zeolite synthesis. The
introduction provides a historical and experimental perspective and is followed by a …

Ordered mesoporous catalysts could open the door for new catalytic processes, based partly
on novel principles, owing to their hitherto unprecedented intrinsic features. For the …

The unique structure of MCM‐41 silicates (shown in the picture) has provided for extremely
attractive properties—uniform pore sizes greater than 20 Å, surface areas exceeding 1000 …

The low-temperature formation of liquid-crystal-like arrays made up of molecular complexes
formed between molecular inorganic species and amphiphilic organic molecules is a …

Nanosciences will be, as biology, one of the fields that will contribute to a high level of
scientific and technological development along the 21st century. Nanostructured inorganic …

About six years after the first publication, ordered mesoporous oxides can be prepared by a
variety of procedures and over a wide range of compositions using various different …
