Abstract
Pillaring is a commonly used procedure to transform a layered crystalline inorganic compound into a material with microporosity and mesoporosity. First, the terms "layered compound, pillaring, pillaring agent and interlayer region" are defined, and then the term pillared layered solid or pillared compound. In the second part, the standard characterization methods and procedures and a systematic classification scheme are proposed.
