Non-ionic tri-block-co-polymers of the ABA type were used as the structure-directing agents, and high-quality SBA-15 and KIT-5 materials were obtained. The materials were characterized by small-angle X-ray diffraction, nitrogen physisorption, transmission electron microscopy, and elemental analysis. The methodology presented here is suggested to be widely applicable for the synthesis of siliceous materials using other impure inorganic silica precursors with different purity, as long as the precursors are soluble under acidic conditions.
