| Research Abstract |
Meso-porous silica is considered inert for UV-Vis light. We found, however, that meso-porous silica showed photo-catalytic property and selectivity for volatile organic compounds. The meso-porous silica showed activities to synthesize ethanol from ethane and oxidize carbon mono-oxide. But these phenomena is not based on meso-porous structure which is periodically controlled in nm scale but on absorption of light of silanol formed on the silica with extremely large surface area.
