Anion Effect on Surface Density of Silanolate Groups in As-Synthesized Mesoporous Silicas
Anions present in the synthesis gel (X = F-, Cl-, Br-, NO3 -, and SO4 2-) partly remain in the channels of mesoporous templated silicas prepared in basic media. Their lyotropic character and their concentration control the silanolate group (⋮SiO-) density at the surfactant−inorganic interface throug...

Summary: | Anions present in the synthesis gel (X = F-, Cl-, Br-, NO3 -, and SO4 2-) partly remain in the channels of mesoporous templated silicas prepared in basic media. Their lyotropic character and their concentration control the silanolate group (⋮SiO-) density at the surfactant−inorganic interface through the electrical charge neutrality, implicating the positive charges of the templating self-assembled surfactants, S+. Accordingly, the well-accepted {S+ I-} generic pathway should be better referred as to {S+, mX-, (1 − m)I-}. |
