Abstract
Mesoporous aluminum oxide with high specific surface area is synthesized us ing aluminum alkoxide and tartaric acid. It was found that the average pore size increases with increasing amount of tartaric acid. Moreover, the meso porous structure is thermally stable up to 1273 K, indicating potential app lication as catalyst supports. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights re served.
