Pure phase of C12A7 was got at a comparatively lower temperature(c.a. 300 ℃) than that has been previously reported. The crystallite size of the synthesized C12A7 powder was 7±2 nm. The surface area values calculated for all the samples at a synthesis temperature range of 250-800 ℃ for 5 h were in the range of about 19-24 m^2/g, with pore sizes of 12-20 nm. This low-temperature-based synthetic strategy along with nano porous structures and a high surface area value can facilitate catalyst application.展开更多
