Title: Facile low temperature synthesis of primary amine templated super-microporous aluminosilicates
Abstract: Super-microporous silica and aluminosilicate materials that possess pores in the range 14 - 19 A have been prepared at low temperature (ca. 5 °C) using a primary amine (dodecylamine) as template. The structural ordering of the materials is similar to that of primary amine-templated mesoporous analogues prepared at higher temperature. The surface area of the materials varies between 450 and 1230 m 2 /g and generally decreases at higher Al content. The pore size also decreases with Al content from 19 to 14 A. Al is successfully incorporated into the framework of the materials to generate significant acidity. Our findings show that low synthesis temperature allows the facile formation of super-microporous silicas and aluminosilicates via primary amine templating.
