Abstract

Silanol groups in the mesoporous silica derived from a layered silicate, kanemite (NaHSi₂O₅ · 3H₂O), were esterified with alcohols (C_nH_2n+1OH; n = 2, 4, and 8). Most of the silanol groups in the mesopores were modified with ethanol though some silanol groups remained after the reactions with 1-dutanol and 1-octanol. With the increase in the alkyl chain lengths of the alcohols, the pore sizes of the esterified products decreased and the hydrophobicity increased.
