Silica was extracted from agriculture waste rice husk ash (RHA) and was used as the silica source for synthesis of RMCM-48 and RSBA-16. An alkali fusion process was utilized to separate silicate supernatant and the sediment effectively. The CTAB/Si and F127/Si molar ratio was employed to control the structure properties of the obtained RMCM-48 and RSBA-16 materials. The N2 adsorption-desorption...

Bernardos A., Kouřimská L. (2013): Applications of mesoporous silica materials in food – a review. Czech J. Food Sci., 31: 99–107. Mesoporous silica materials have been developed for some applications in the health field. These solids are used for the controlled release of bioactive molecules, as catalysts in the synthesis of essential nutrients, as sensors to detect unhealthy products etc., wi...

Mesoporous silica materials have been utilized for various applications (catalysis, sensing, drug delivery, adsorption and separation) due to their uniform mesoporous features as well as high surface areas. When organic polymer layers are introduced to the mesopore walls, the physicochemical properties as well as surface nature of the silica (e.g. hydrophilicity and surface charge) can be alter...

In this work, Fe3O4@SiO2 nanoparticles were coated with mesoporous silica shell by S-N+I- pathway by using anionic surfactant (S-) and co-structure directing agent (N+). The role of co-structure directing agent (CSDA) is to assist the electrostatic interaction between negatively charged silica layers and the negatively charged surfactant molecules. Prior to the mesoporous shell formation step, ...

in this work we synthesized of mesoporous silica nanoparticles and functionalized with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane to improve the loading and release of ibuprofen bonded to 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane. sample were characterized by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy , x-ray diffraction, and ultraviolet-visible. the fourier transform infrared spectroscopy resu...

Pt-decorated mesoporous silica is directly prepared using a polymeric micelles assembly approach using an asymmetric triblock copolymer, poly(styrene-b-2-vinylpyridine-b-ethylene oxide) as the structure directing agent. Strongly immobilized, fully accessible, and uniformly dispersed Pt nanoparticles on mesoporous silica wall exhibit superior catalytic activity toward CO oxidation.

Aluminum-containing mesoporous silica with hierarchical macroporous architecture (Al-MMS) was successfully prepared using a solvent evaporation method through the combination of precursor solution for synthesis of Al-containing mesoporous silica (Al-MS) and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) colloidal crystals as a hard template. The porous structure and the state of aluminum were investigated us...

the idea of smart corrosion inhibition is basis on either inhibitor consumption where it is needed or reducing harmful matrix interaction with it. in addition, applying corrosion inhibitor in a coating causes many problems such as loss of inhibition capability, coating degradation, or both. a useful technique to overcome this problem is applying of inert host systems of nanometer dimensions as ...

Hollow silica tubes with mesoporous wall structure were synthesized through the sol-gel reactions of tetraethoxysilane and n-octadecyltrimethoxysilane (TEOS/C18-TMS) on the surface of ammonium dl-tartrate crystals. Novel hollow carbon tubes with mesoporous walls and rectangular-shaped channels were fabricated using the silica tubes as templates.
