MCM-41 has been synthesized at two different pH using cetyl-trimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) surfactant as template and adding the silica precursor to aqueous solutions containing CTAB. The obtained solids were calcined at 600 degrees C for 4 h. Mn-MCM-41 powders with different Mn/Si molar ratios were prepared using the incipient wetness method, followed by calcination at 550 degrees C for 5 h. At the end of the impregnation process the powders colour changed from white to brown whose intensity depends on manganese quantity. The materials characterization was performed by X-ray diffraction, N-2 adsorption, Si-29 Cross Polarization-Magic Angle Spinning NMR, and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy. The effects of the manganese quantity and of the structural characteristic of the MCM-41 support were studied. The catalytic activity of the prepared systems was evaluated in a complete n-hexane oxidation. (c) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
