Simple preparation of silica and alumina with a hierarchical pore system via the dual-templating method

Silica and alumina with macro-meso-type hierarchical pore systems are synthesized by dual templating using both surfactants and polystyrene (PS) spheres. After calcination, scanning electron microscope images show uniform macropores with a diameter of approximately 200 nm. This size coincides with t...
