The original properties of mesoporous molecular sieves are so
unique that the design of most existing catalysts could be
reconsidered. It might indeed be of interest to introduce MMS
either as a support or as the active phase, merely on the basis of
their high surface areas, narrow pore size distribution and
flexibility in composition. The recent literature provides examples
of MMS based catalysts of many types such as acid-base solids,
supported metals and supported oxides, mixed oxides, anchored
complexes and clusters, grafted organic functional groups and
others. Examples of all these developments are documented in the
present proceedings including some spectacular new proposals. The
new metallic (Pt) mesophases are specially worth mentioning because
they represent a new approach to producing non-supported highly
dispersed metals.
In these proceedings the reader will find feature articles and
regular papers from many worldwide groups, covering all aspects of
synthesis, physical characterization and catalytic reactivity of
MMS and their chemically modified forms. It is actually remarkable
that this recent development brought together an even broader
spectrum of scientists from traditionally unrelated fields such as
those of liquid crystals, surfactants, sol-gels, amorphous oxides
and mixed oxides, solid state, adsorbents and heterogeneous
catalysts. Obviously, this is a fast-growing research area which
triggers the imagination and creativity at the cross-road between
material design, molecular surface tailoring and catalytic
applications.
