メソポーラス構造を有する有機無機ハイブリッド膜

抄録

Mesoporous materials, a new class of materials characterized by large specific surface areas and pore sizes between 2 and 50 nm, are obtained using templates. Especially, mesoporous organic-inorganic hybrid materials are fascinating because the incorporation of organic units in the pore walls provides numerous potential applications such as catalysis, separation, adsorption, sensor, gas storage and optical and electrical devices. This article presents the outline of synthesis and structure of organic-inorganic hybrid mesoporous materials. Emphasis is given to a variety of preparations of mesoporous films. Relevant uses of these films in diverse applications are discussed.
