Dependence of mesoporous silica properties on its template
Mesoporous silica has garnered a lot of attention since its discovery and this is due to their interesting properties such as high surface area, tunable pore size and facile functionalization. All these properties can be varied through its templates and synthesis parameters. Two of the most commonly...

Mesoporous silica has garnered a lot of attention since its discovery and this is due to their interesting properties such as high surface area, tunable pore size and facile functionalization.
