Synthesis and Characteristics of Mesoporous SBA-15 Influence by HMTA as an Internal pH Modifier

SBA-15 mesoporous silica was directly synthesised under difference acidic conditions by a “pH modification method” using hexamethylenetetramine (HMTA) as an internal pH-modifier. The synthesised material has been characterised by XRD, Nitrogen adsorption–desorption, and TEM. The characterisation res...
