Recently, silica nanoparticles (SNPs) have drawn widespread attention due to their
applications in many emerging areas because of their tailorable morphology. During the last …

The presence of large amounts of contaminants in the environment would result in
ecological and health hazards. The photocatalytic technologies have been developed to use …

In this study, we developed nonmetal-doped TiO2 nanoparticles (NF-TiO2) by a novel
synthesis route employing a simple sol–gel method containing a nonionic fluorosurfactant …

Characterized by a regular porosity in terms of pore size and pore network arrangement,
ordered mesoporous solids have attracted increasing interest in the last two decades. These …

Hollow spherical silica particles with hexagonally ordered mesoporous shells are
synthesized with the dual use of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and unmodified …

The influence of powdered and colloidal nano-silica (NS) on the mechanical properties of
cement mortar has been investigated. Powdered-NS (~ 40 nm) was synthesized by …

This sixth part of the multi-volume Handbook of Detergents focuses on the production of
surfactants, builders and other key components of detergent formulations, including the …

In this work, porous silica nanocapsules and silica nanospheres have been successfully
fabricated by a novel combination of stabilizing condensation and dynamic self-assembly …

Preparation of dispersed, amorphous, spherical silica nanoparticles using cationic surfactant
as organic template, tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) as silica precursor and ammonia as catalyst …

The applications of mesoporous materials (MMs) in the biomedical and biotechnological
