Description

The transformation of mesoporous silica morphology from monoliths to spherical particles was investigated at room temperature in Pluronic F127/TEOS system as a function of HCl acid catalyst concentration to understand and control the mechanism. It is shown that the specific surface area and the size of mesoporous spherical silica particles can simply be adjusted by the catalyst concentration without using any additives or post-treatment.
