According to recent research published in the Journal of Physical Chemistry C, "Mesoporous manganese oxide was prepared by using a straightforward, template-assisted method. The resulting material was crystalline and of uniform pore diameter."
"The material was characterized by HR-TEM, HRSEM, XRD, XPS, and EXAF-XANES, and pore size distributions were calculated from nitrogen sorption studies. These materials with very high surface area of 316 m(2)/g have a novel hierarchical structure with spherical particles (
The researchers concluded: "Detailed characterization reveals the role of lattice defects, strong metal-support and adsorbate-adsorbent interactions, along with ...
