PORE ENGINEERING OF SURFACTANT TEMPLATED NANOPOROUS SILICA USING SUPERCRITICAL CARBON DIOXIDE

The use of compressed CO2 processing to alter the pore size, structure and timescale of silica condensation in surfactant templated silica thin films and powders is investigated by systematically varying the template structure and CO2 processing conditions. Tailoring the mesoporous materials increas...
