Importance of the α-plot Method in the Characterization of Nanoporous Materials by Jhonny Villarroel-Rocha, Deicy Barrera, Andrés A. García Blanco, Ma. Eugenia Roca Jalil, Karim Sapag

“…The analysis was segregated into three categories: (i) microporous materials, in which the analyzed samples are activated carbons (ACs) with different pore-size distributions, a single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) and a zeolite (MS5A); (ii) mesoporous materials, including ordered mesoporous carbons (CMK-3) and ordered mesoporous siliceous materials (MCM-41 and SBA-15); and (iii) micro-mesoporous materials, in which pillared clays (PILCs) obtained with different metals (Al, Si, Fe and Zr) were studied. …”
