Abstract
A process for the preparation of mesostructured organofunctional silica and silica-alumina compositions using a hydrolyzable organosilane compound is described. The process uses a water soluble silicate to form the compositions, which have hexagonal, wormhole or foam mesostructures. The compositions are useful for catalytic and sorption applications.
