Abstract:Mesoporous silica (MPS) nanoparticle was prepared as carriers for drug delivery systems by sol-gel method from sodium silicate as inexpensive precursor of silica and Cocamidopropyl betaine (CABP) as template. The silica particles were characterized by SEM, TEM, AFM, XRD, and N2adsorption-desorption isotherms. The results show that the MPS particle in the nanorange (40-80 nm) with average diameter equal to 62.15 nm has rods particle morphology, specific surface area is 1096.122 m 2 /g, pore volume 0.900 cm 3 /g… Show more
“…Adsorbent: Using sodium silicate (14% NaOH, 27% SiO2 w/w) as a source of silica and hydroxycetyl hydroxy ethyl dimonium chloride (dehyquart) surfactant as a template, both of which were obtained from the state company of vegetable oils in Iraq, the process for making mesoporous silica as an adsorbent is similar to the one we reported earlier 9 .…”
