Mesoporous composites from waste glass have been synthesized by simple heating process. The ability in the control of pore size was controlled by adjusting the time of melting point. In this study, the time of melting process was used a pore-forming agent in composite from waste glass. The composites from waste glass have been synthesized at 750°C with controllable of time 1h, 1.5h, 2h, 2.5h, 3h and 3.5h. The results showed that the composites from waste glass have decreased permeability from 2.09×10-13 m2 - 1.04×10-14 m2. With this result, the prepared mesoporous composites from waste glass may be used efficiently in various applications, such as water filter. © 2014 AIP Publishing LLC.
