In this research, mesoporous material KIT-6 silica with high surface area (924.5 m2/g) and pore diameter (9.71 nm) was successfully synthesized using rice husk ash as a silica source. According to the SAXS analysis and TEM micrographs, the silicate structure of as-prepared KIT-was not distrupted by the functionalization and activation treatments with 3-APTES and glutaraldehyde, but showed a significant decrease in pore diameter and total pore volume as the compound was covalently bonded to the…
