Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To study the effect of pore size on ion adsorptive properties, we conducted acid/base titration experiments using nanoporous silica powders of different pore sizes. Ionic strengths in the titration experiments were adjusted to be 1 and 100 mM using NaCl. The nanoporous silica powders having average pore diameters of 1.2 nm and 50 nm were used. It was found that the silica surfaces of nanopores were less negatively charged with decreasing the pore size. Because the formation of >Si-O- and >Si-O-Na+ sites results in the negative charges, the finding suggests that as the pore size decreases the sum of >Si-O- and >Si-O-Na+ sites decreases and alternatively >Si-OH site increases.
