Long chain imidazolium ionic liquids as templates in the formation of mesoporous silica nanospheres
Mesoporous silica material was first discovered by Mobil research group in 1990s. Its nanoscale form is favorable due to their properties such as high specific surface area, tunable sizes and easy surface functionalization. Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) is commonly synthesize through conden...

Mesoporous silica material was first discovered by Mobil research group in 1990s. Its nanoscale form is favorable due to their properties such as high specific surface area, tunable sizes and easy surface functionalization. Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) is commonly synthesize through condensation of silica source in the presence of templates. Two most commonly used templates are cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and polymer PF-127. However, in these recent years, new templates were discovered and one of it is ionic liquids (ILs). ILs are salt that has melting point below 100 °C and its core structure is similar to CTAB which consist of large organic cations and inorganic or organic anions. Therefore, it has the potential to serve as alternative template in formation of MSNs. This work reported usage of two long chain imidazolium ILs as template in the synthesis of monodispersed mesoporous silica nanospheres (MNSs).
