Understanding the Zr and Si interdispersion in Zr1-xSixO2 mesoporous thin films by using FTIR and XANES spectroscopy
Zr-Si mixed mesoporous oxides were obtained in a wide range of proportions, from 0 to 30% and from 70 to 100% of Si, using Si(OEt)4 and ZrCl4 as precursors and Pluronic F127 as a template. The oxide mesostructure was characterized by transmission electron microscopy and 2D-small angle X-ray scatteri...
