Abstract
The objective of this report is to give a characterization of MCM-41, in particular with respect to acidity and molecular sieve properties, with a view to using this mesoporous material in catalysis. The result s obtained by TPAD measurements indicate that aluminosilicate MCM-41 b ehaves like a solid-state acid. Because of its high thermal stability this material is applicable as an active component in acid-catalysed c racking reactions at temperatures above 500 degrees C.
