Controlling textural, surface and adsorption characteristics of MCM-48 via hydrothermal treatment

Excluding the autoclaving step in the synthesis recipe of MCM-48 resulted in the formation of silica lacking the three-dimensional channel system, the cubic microstructure and the surface silanol groups. This sample has poor wettability that limits the diffusion rate in aqueous media. Adsorption of...
