Abstract: | Macroscopic mesoporous silica spheres have been fabricated by alternatively depositing preformed MCM-41 nanoparticles and polyelectrolytes onto polystyrene lattices. High surface area hollow mesoporous spheres were obtained by removal of the core by solvent or calcination. Further, the versatility of the layer-by-layer (LBL) method was extended to fabricate magnetite-mesoporous silica composites by depositing magnetite and MCM-41 nanoparticles onto polystyrene beads. Such high surface area composites are important since the mesopores can be used for encapsulation of varied materials like enzymes and drugs while the presence of magnetite ensures application in biocatalysis and separation under magnetic field. |
