Abstract
The development of nanoscience and technology has devoted significant attention to studies on hollow particles. Among these materials, mesoporous silica nanoparticles have recently attracted attention as potential nanocontainers due to their high stability, biocompatibility, large surface area, controllable pore diameter and easy surface functionalization. Mesoporous silica nanoparticles can uptake, store and release organic or inorganic molecules of various sizes, shapes and functionalities. The aim of this work is to study the use of mesoporous silica with hexagonally ordered (4
