The invention provides a method for the preparation of an amorphous silicate of at least one metal from the Group 4 of the Periodic Table of Elements with a total pore volume of at least 0.3 mL/g. The method of preparation involves the use of pore shaping conditions, which can be the use of a pore shaper and optionally an increased precipitation temperature, e.g. at least 60&#xb0; C. The silicate of the invention is especially suitable in catalytic reactions such as esterifications, Michael additions, transesterifications, (ep)oxidations, hydroxylations, or in absorbance of small inorganic and organic molecules e.g. COor aromatic compounds.

Method for preparation of a group 4 metal silicate and use thereof

The invention provides a method for the preparation of an amorphous silicate of at least one metal from the Group 4 of the Periodic Table of Elements with a total pore volume of at least 0.3 mL/g. The method of preparation involves the use of pore shaping conditions, which can be the use of a pore shaper and optionally an increased precipitation temperature, e.g. at least 60&#xb0; C. The silicate of the invention is especially suitable in catalytic reactions such as esterifications, Michael additions, transesterifications, (ep)oxidations, hydroxylations, or in adsorbance of small inorganic and organic molecules e.g. COor aromatic compounds.

The invention is in the field of modified carbon products. More in particular, the invention is in the field of graphitized activated carbon bodies. The invention is directed to carbon bodies and ferromagnetic carbon bodies, the production of these bodies from activated carbon, and the applications of the carbon bodies and ferromagnetic carbon bodies, for instance in water treatment and in electrochemical applications.
