delivery, sensors, photonics, and nanodevices, require the development of ordered porous …

A variety of nanostructured materials are produced through template-based synthesis
methods, including zero-dimensional, one-dimensional, and two-dimensional structures …

A very large number of different synthesis approaches for the preparation of mesoporous
materials has been reported in literature since the first development of ordered mesoporous …

Ice nucleation in the atmosphere influences cloud properties, altering precipitation and the
radiative balance, ultimately regulating Earth's climate. An accepted ice nucleation pathway …

A rapid and facile synthesis route to the monodisperse spherical MCM-48 mesoporous silica
nanoparticles (MSN) with cubic Ia 3̅ d mesostructure is developed based on the modified …

Silica nanoparticles with controlled diameter (∼ 70− 300 nm) and with uniform pores of 20
nm are prepared by a low temperature (10° C) synthetic method in the presence of a dual …

A series of mesoporous silica materials with similar pore sizes, different morphologies and
variable pore geometries were prepared systematically. In order to control drug release …

Mesoporous SBA-16 and SBA-15 were studied in order to control their possible
morphologies. SBA-16 is synthesized using a silicon source (tetraethoxysilane, TEOS) and a …

Ordered mesoporous silica (MCM-41) particles with different morphologies were
synthesized through a simple hydrothermal process. Then these silica particles were …

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