Abstract
Mesoporous aluminophosphate AlPO4 with high thermal stability has been simply synthesized from lauric and myristic triglycerides, as a novel templating agent. The ordered sample showed large pore size (153Å) and pore volume (0.37cm³/g), and also presenting a broad pore size distribution. The crystalline nature of the material was detail characterized by the powder X-ray diffraction method and supported by the observation using scanning electron microscope. The material has high thermal stability towards thermal treatment up to 1200°C. The catalyst shows very high activity for the esterification of n-butanol and acetic acid and also acts as a good adsorbent for the removal of organic dyes from aqueous solution.
