The mesoporous silica was prepared under alkaline condition using TMA-POSS as the silicon source and hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) as the template, the structures of these products were characterized by XRD, TEM and nitrogen adsorption and desorption methods. The results indicate that the synthesized silica exhibites a well-ordered hexagonal pore structure with larger specific surface area. With increasing of CTAB molar ratio, the spacing of the crystal plane d100 is increased. The effects of the pH values on the mesoporous structure in the reaction system with different molar ratio of nPOSS / nCTAB were investigated. The synthesis mechanism of mesoporous silica was also discussed.展开更多
