“…Silica nanoparticles (SNPs) have been synthesized applying several techniques such as sol-gel process [20][21][22], microemulsion [23][24][25], oxidation of tetra ethoxy silane (TEOS) in the bench-scale diffusion flame reactor [26], an interdigital micromixer and a batch reactor [27]. Recently mesoporous silica nanoparticles for encapsulation for water insoluble drugs were obtained using supercritical carbon dioxide [28].…”

Monodispersed silica nanoparticles (SNPs) were synthesized by cost effective aqueous-ethanolic route. The particle size was controlled by optimizing the synthetic conditions. The synthesized different size SNPs were used to study the corrosion protection efficiency on aluminium (Al) in alkaline medium by weight loss, Potentiodynamic polarization and surface morphology examination methods. It was found that SNPs with smaller particle sizes showed better protection efficiency compared to those of larger particles. The results were explained in terms of effective surface coverage by smaller sized SNPs.
