Abstract

Abstract Microporous silicas with pore sizes in the range intermediate between traditional microporous and mesoporous materials have been synthesized by using dodecyldimethylbenzylammonium chloride as a template. These microporous silicas can be synthesized by either acidic S+X−I+ or basic S+I− assembly pathways and consist of disordered channels with almost identical pore sizes of 12.2 Å in both cases. Their BET surface areas are larger than 1000 m2/g after being calcined in air.
