Abstract
Mesoporous γ-Al2O3 materials with high surface area and a narrow pore size distribution were synthesized by facile sol–gel procedure with application of the polymer–colloid complex as a template.

Notes
Characterization of the samples: BET surface areas of the samples were calculated from nitrogen physisorption data collected on a Quantachrome Nova 1200 Series-e analyzer at 77 K. The pore size distributions were calculated using the BJH method from the desorption branch of the isotherms. XRD measurements were performed using a Bruker Nanostar U diffractometer using Cu Ka radiation (1.54 Å). The size distribution were measured by dynamic light scattering (DLS, Malvern, Zetasizer nano ZS).
