title: Drying induced phase transformation of mesoporous silica.
abstract: Solvent evaporation upon drying the precipitate was found to be the key factor for the phase transformation of cubic mesoporous silica SBA-1 to hexagonal SBA-3 studied by in-situ X-ray diffraction and 29Si solid state NMR on the precipitates formed various crystallisation conditions.
