By hydrothermal method, using hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide as template agent, industrial Na2O·(3.3~3.5) SiO2 as cheap silica source, adding V5+ in the synthesis process, the mesoporous molecular sieves containing vanadium were synthesized. The oxidation of styrene was studied as a model reaction and proper parameters were selected: n(Si)∶n(CTAB)∶n(V)=1∶0.2∶ 0.08, pH=9.5, crystallizing time 48 h. Mesoporous molecular sieve V-MCM-41 with surface area (BET) = 1003 m2/g and average pore size of 3.944 nm was synthesized. After thermal-treating at 800 ℃ for 12 h, the surface area (BET) and pore diameter remain 81.6% and 58.6%. The good thermal stability of the mesoporous molecular sieves V-MCM-41were proved by BET data and XRD spectra.
