Abstract

We demonstrate facile synthesis of mesoporous Pt replicas using double gyroid mesoporous silica (KIT-6) with different pore diameters via vapor infiltration of a reducing agent. Through controlling the complementary pore size, it becomes possible to selectively deposit Pt into one side pore of the Ia3d bicontinuous structure, thereby forming a mesoporous Pt replica with relatively large mesopores (over 10 nm).
