Synthesis and characterization of the rope morphology of the MCM-41 mesoporous material, was investigated by electrospinning technique. The synthesis was performed in basic condition. The MCM-41 morphology was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), and nitrogen adsorption-desorption measurement. Wheat stem (WS), an agricultural waste, and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) were used as a silica and template sources for MCM-41 microfibers synthesis, respectively. The XRD study revealed a long range structural ordering of mesoporous materials. The TEM results indicated rough surfaces with uniform average diameter 2 mu m for microropes. According to SEM images, the micrometer-scaled ropes of MCM-41 materials were made from nanometer-sized fibers. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
