Outline of Final Research Achievements

Porous materials made of organic-inorganic composite with hierarchical bimodal pore structure were prepared and its functionalities were modified. The morphology of the composite material was well controlled by selecting appropriate monomer and solvent in polymerization of organic resin. Introduction of sulfoxide-group effectively adds acid functionalities, and sulfoxide-composite material shows good performance in dehydration of alcohol because macropores provide fast pass way for molecular transportation. Porous carbon obtained by carbonization and silica removal also has well-defined pore structure.
