Abstract
We report experimental data on the mechanical stability of the silica mesoporous material MCM-41. Using X-ray diffraction and nitrogen adsorption we show that the ordered mesoporous structure of MCM-41 can be affected considerably by mechanical compression at pressures as low as 86 MPa and essentially destroyed at 224 MPa.
