A New Mesoporous Manganese Oxide Pillared with Double Layers of Alumina

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

The flocculation of colloidal nanosheets of MnO2 with Al13 Keggin ions produces a novel pillared structure with a double-layer arrangement of Al13 species, which exhibits a large intersheet spacing of 2.3 nm and a well-defined mesoporosity. The Figure shows a schematic representation of the formation process.
