Surface and porosity engineering of aminosilica nanoparticles for different applications

Abstract

The research is financed from the SASPRO project No. 1298/03/01. Aminosilica nanospheres could be used as simple and useful carriers for different applications in nanomedicine, catalysis, adsorption, or tribology (Fig.). However they require definite characteristics, such as size, porosity, content and distribution of amino groups on the particle’s surface...
