Abstract
Mono- and bifunctional mesoporous silicas containing the thiourea group ≡Si(CH2)3NHC(S)NHC2H5 or thiourea and various nitrogen-containing groups [≡Si(CH2)3NH2, ≡Si(CH2)3NH(CH2)2NH2, or {≡Si(CH2)3}2NH], respectively, in the surface layer were prepared by template syntheses with cetylpyridinium chloride as a template. The synthesized samples had well-developed porous structures (S sp = 750–1150 m2/g, V c = 0.51–0.72 cm3/g, and d = 2.4–3.5 nm) and high functional group contents (1.0–2.0 mmol/g). Hydrothermal treatment of the mesophases in a mother liquor at 80°C (24 h) improved the structure-adsorption characteristics of the functionalized mesoporous silicas.
