Abstract: | Silica nanospheres with wide applications on chemistry have been synthesized using the Stöber method and have been modified with several organic functional groups by post-synthesis reaction in anhydrous environments. The surface analysis of the silica nanosized spheres leads to low surface area values and large skeletal densities, pointing out to dense nanospheres. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) prove the microstructure level of the surface porosity that is clearly affected by the organic functionalization. |
