Collapsed (kippah) hollow silica nanoparticles

Abstract

Novel collapsed kippah-like mesoporous silica nanoparticles were synthesized using an O/W microemulsion system. The oil (hexadecane) can escape from the core while water could not enter through the surfactant filled nanopores of the soft shell during synthesis.
