TI  - Synthesis of a three-dimensional cubic mesoporous silica monolith employing an 
      organic additive through an evaporation-induced self-assembly process.
PG  - 6391-7
AB  - We demonstrate a robust approach to the synthesis of a 3D cubic Im3m mesoporous 
      silica monolith from SiO2/cetyltrimethylammoniumbromide 
      (CTAB)/1,3,5-triisopropylbenzene (TIPB) sols having molar compositions of 
      1SiO2/0.0017HCl/5.2H2O/10EtOH/0.10CTAB/0.1-0.5TIPB by the evaporation-induced 
      self-assembly (EISA) process. The addition of TIPB is aimed at altering the 
      micelle geometry to spheroid from rodlike in the gel state; the change in micelle 
      geometry leads to the formation of a 3D cage-type cubic mesostructure in the 
      monolith. The synthesized materials exhibit BET surface areas of 800-1000 m(2)/g, 
      a BJH pore diameter of 2.9-4.3 nm, and a pore volume of 0.7-1.0 cm(3)/g, 
      demonstrating ultrahigh porosity of the 3D cubic mesostructure.
