Adsorption and structural properties of ordered mesoporous alumina synthesized in the presence of F127 block copolymer

Synthesis and characterization of mesoporous aluminas with different pore sizes: Application in NiMo supported catalyst for hydrotreating of heavy gas oil

“…Dacquin et al [14] have synthesized highly ordered macroporous-mesoporous alumina using P-123 and latex spheres. Grant et al [15] utilized Pluronic F-127 as SDA and used facile one-pot evaporation induced self-assembly method to synthesize ordered mesoporous alumina with surface area of 330 m 2 /g. Other methods to synthesize mesoporous alumina such as facile reverse precipitation method [16], solvent deficient synthesis [17], precipitation method [18] were also exploited.…”

An Overview on Zeolite Shaping Technology and Solutions to Overcome Diffusion Limitations

“…The authors highlighted the presence of strong Lewis acidity, provided by aluminum atoms, proving those ordered mesoporous aluminas to be ideal supports for heterogeneous catalysis purposes. The same method was used by Grant et al [44], but using Pluronic F127. This copolymer formed cage-like mesopores with eight interconnecting cages, having a width of up to 8 nm and specific surface areas of 338 m 2 /g.…”

Adsorption behavior of methylene blue on amine-functionalized ordered mesoporous alumina

“…Polyelectrolyte-functionalized mesoporous silica was proved to be potent adsorbents for anionic dye in an aqueous solution [23]. The adsorption properties of surface-functionalized mesoporous adsorbents have been successfully prepared and shown to have remarkable adsorption capacity [24][25][26].…”
