Synthesis of Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles by Means of a Hydrogel

Synthesis and application of Mesoporous silicate nanoparticles is important area of research in many fields such as drug delivery, medicine, catalysis and optic. The method of synthesis strongly affects the properties of product. In this work, mesoporous silica nanoparticles were synthesized synthesized by means of a hydrogel. The obtained product was characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and nitrogen physisorption. The results show that highly ordered mesoporous silica nanoparticles were synthesized by means of a hydrogel.
