Direct hydrothermal synthesis of novel functional mesoporous materials

A direct synthesis method of preparing alkaline earth or transition metal oxides supporting mesoporous materials is reported. Distinguishing from those traditionaltechniques characterized by “synthesis at first and then modification”, this new method adds the precursor salts that have no perturbation in the strong acid synthetic system but easily form oxides after calcinations, into the initial syntheticmixture, performing the “synthesis” and “modification” in one-pot procedure.
