In this study, unique fibrous silica ZSM-5 was successfully synthesized by using three type of alcohol possessing different alkyl-chain length as the co-surfactant. The effect of diverse co-surfactant was observed in the changes of physical properties, such as crystallinity, inter-dendrimer distance...
