This presentation will focus on chemical transformations in mesoporous transition metal oxides prepared by inverse micelle syntheses. Besides initial nucleation and formation of pores, these systems go through a number of chemical transformations as well as after these stages. Various conditions can be used to control pore sizes, crystallinity, and phases. In addition, chemical transformations can occur such as generation of sulfides from oxides, and doping of these systems. Besides discussion of syntheses, we will discuss characterization and potential applications such as adsorption, catalysis, batteries, and others.
