Due to the characteristics of porous walls and empty spaces ... developed a precursor hydrolysis method (PHM) to achieve mass production of SiO 2 MHSs. The study is published in Advanced Materials.

The template is removed after the synthesis, leaving behind a well-defined porous network. This method allows for precise control over pore size, shape, and ordering. Sol-gel processing is a versatile ...

These precursors undergo hydrolysis and polymerization reactions, leading to the formation of a network of interconnected particles or polymers, transitioning into a gel. The gel contains both a solid ...
