Title: From self-assembly structures to mesoporous materials templated by block copolymers

Abstract

We have utilized several unique amphiphilic block copolymers as templates to successfully fabricate a series of mesoporous materials, for example, mesoporous silicas, mesoporous phenolic resins and mesoporous carbons by a convenient EISA method. In addition, we expended the research method to the many block copolymer systems, especially for the unusual ABC type triblock copolymers, we obtained the hierarchical mesostructure by single template. These specific mesostructures could be observed easily by small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and isotherm N2 experiment. Moreover, blending technique could also be used in the templating process during EISA; the clear method could easily control the morphology and pore size of the mesoporous materials.
