Ultrasound irradiation is proving to be an excellent method for the synthesis of mesoporous oxides. Here is reported the preparation of titania containing a framework of wormholes—a structural motif of importance for catalysis. Using ultrasonication with a long‐chain organic amine as a structure‐directing agent, the synthesis was complete in a few hours (the Figure shows particles of the as‐prepared material).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
