Pure silica nanocapsules (SiNC-P) and elemental sulfur-encapsulated silica nanocapsules (SiNC-ES) as Ag(I) adsorbents were successfully synthesized by a one-step water-in-oil microemulsion polymerization process. The characterization of the synthesized materials, such as surface morphology, surface...
