PXRD and N(2) adsorption-desorption analysis shows that the original structure of the materials is maintained after chromium substitution while spectroscopic study proves the incorporation of chromium in the frame wall positions and show the existence of Cr(2)O(3) species in the mixed silica source (BTEE-TEOS) synthesized chromium samples. The catalytic activity of the newly developed chromium samples was evaluated in the liquid phase oxidation of cyclohexane and ethylbenzene using air as an oxidant. Further, the Cr-PMO samples exhibited better cyclohexane conversion and cyclohexanone selectivity than the conventional Cr-MCM-41 and other metal-containing MCM-41 samples. The exceptional activity of the new chromium-containing molecular sieves is attributed to the hydrophobicity of the materials and to the complementary structural features that facilitates the accessibility of substrate to the active framework chromium sites.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3-4</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1.907</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Shylesh, S.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kapoor, Mahendra P.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Juneja, Lekh R.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Srilakshmi, Ch.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Singh, A.

Unlike the conventional EtOH-HCl template extraction process, EtOH-NH(4)NO(3) was used as the surfactant-extracting medium and chemical analysis results suggest that through this procedure the mesoporous structure can be retained and dealumination can be minimized. The surfactant-extracted mesoporous solids display high surface area, pore volume and the pore size of the material varies in the range 2.6-3.6 nm, with respect to the alkyl chain length of the cationic surfactant. XRD and nitrogen physisorption studies further proved that the organosilicas are hydro thermally stable than the conventional Al-MCM-41 materials and their better stability is attributed to the thick pore walls as well as due to the presence of hydrophobic bridging ethenylene groups in the wall positions. The coupling of Al(4) with -CH=CH- bridges offer new prospects for the application of periodic mesoporous organosilicas in heterogeneous catalysis.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">0.528</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
