Fire up porous oxides

Our paper “Colloidal Amphiphile-Templated Growth of Highly Crystalline Mesoporous Nonsiliceous Oxides” by Ben Liu et al. (Chem. Mater. 2015, 27, 6173–6176) has been highlighted on the front cover of Chemistry of Materials. The cover designed by Ben illustrates outstanding thermal stability of colloidal-amphiphile templates. We highlighted a colloidal amphiphile-templating method to fabricate non-siliceous mesoporous oxides up to 1000 oC.
