SiO₂-CaO-P₂O₅-based mesoporous bioactive glasses (MBGs) were synthesized by spray pyrolysis in this study. Three commonly used non-ionic tri-block copolymers (L121, P123, and F127) with various lengths of hydrophilic chains were applied as structural templates to achieve different pore sizes. A mesoporous structure was observed in each as-prepared specimen, and the results showed that the L121-...

The present research reports the synthesis of poly-N-isopropylacrylamide / mesoporous carbon composites, prepared by radical polymerization of N-isopropylacrylamide inside mesoporous carbon pores functionalized with carboxylic groups. The deposition of poly-N-isopropylacrylamide on mesoporous carbon was confirmed by FT-IR spectroscopy, TEM, N2-sorption measurements. The mesoporous carbon materi...

In this communication, we report the fabrication of silica nanospheres with a double mesoporous core-shell structure by a one-templating step two-pot synthesis route using an anionic surfactant.

The self-complexation of mono-benzimidazole functionalized β-cyclodextrins was investigated. The unique molecular structure employed as supramolecular nanovalves were installed on the external surface of mesoporous silica to assemble mechanized silica nanoparticles, which showed pH-triggered release property.

ordered mesoporous carbon cmk-3 (omc) have been synthesized using mesoporous sba-15 silica as template and modified with cobalt carbonate. morphologies and surface texturing of materials werecharacterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem) and n2 adsorption-desorptionisotherms. the cobalt modified ordered mesoporous carbon were found to have a surface area of 490.06m...

An inorganic-organic hybrid fluorescence chemosensor (DA/SBA-15) was prepared by covalent immobilization of a dansylamide derivative into the channels of mesoporous silica material SBA-15 via (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES) groups. The primary hexagonally ordered mesoporous structure of SBA-15 was preserved after the grafting procedure. Fluorescence characterization shows that the obtain...

Randomly microphase-separated graft copolymers have been self-reorganized so as to exhibit a micellar structure with excellent connectivity upon tuning the solvent affinity. These copolymers are used as a structure-directing agent for organized mesoporous TiO(2) films with no grain boundaries, leading to enhanced solar conversion efficiency of dye-sensitized solar cells.

Combined experimental & theoretical approach for the elucidation of structure–property relations in niobium-doped mesoporous titania.

Mesoporous SiO2 nanopowder was synthesized under an acidic condition by a sol-gel method using various amounts of cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) as structure directing agent. The samples were investigated with XRD, SEM, FTIR, TEM and N2 absorption-desorption analysis. Also, the incremental effect of surfactant were examined. The results obtained from the analysis suggested that an incre...
