Synthesis of mesoporous aluminophosphates using surfactants with long alkyl chain lengths and triisopropylbenzene as a solubilizing agent

Abstract

Mesostructured organo-aluminophosphates were prepared by using surfactants with long alkyl chain lengths (C₁₆ and C₂₂) and by utilizing solubilization of triisopropylbenzene; calcination of the mesostructured materials yielded thermally stable mesoporous aluminophosphates with surface areas >700 m² g^–1 and with pore diameters in the range 1.8–3.9 nm.
