An Efficient Route to Rapidly Access Silica Materials with Differently Ordered Mesostructures through Counteranion Exchange. Issue 31 (20th June 2013) - Lin, Changxu
Abstract Control via exchange: By using a new type of imidazolium‐based gemini surfactant as the template, highly ordered cubic mesoporous silica material (MCM‐48) was directly synthesized in a broad range of reactant compositions and under mild conditions (see scheme). Moreover, by a simple counterion exchange strategy, hexagonal (MCM‐41) and lamellar (MCM‐50) mesoporous silicas are also easily and efficiently accessible.
