Abstract: Since the synthesis of novel mesoporous silica materials in 1992, the materials have become a great demand in many research fields. The authors reviewed the synthesis of mesoporous silica materials and their classification, their formation mechanism, as well as the aspects of controlling porosity and recent progresses of their applications. The mesoporous silica materials may be found great utility in catalysis and nano-technology etc.

Key words: mesoporous silica, synthesis, catalysis, nano-technology
