Abstract
The structural properties of mesoporous molecular sieves with MCM-41 like structure were studied by Molecular Dynamics simulations. The ratio between the wall thickness and the pore diameter was varied and the stabilization energy of the lattice was determined. With decreasing wall thickness an increase of the stabilization energy was observed. Structures with partially interrupted walls were found to be energetically highly unstable.
