Rapid Functionalization of Mesoporous Materials: Directly Dispersing Metal Oxides into As‐Prepared SBA‐15 Occluded with Template

Guest–host composites with improved dispersion of guest species can be fabricated using a new method that exploits the confined space between the silica walls and templated aggregates in as-prepared mesoporous materials. This produces mesoporous functional composites with high oxide dispersions with potential applications such as supported catalysts or solid-polymer electrolytes.
