Multifunctional hybrid aerogels: hyperbranched polymer-trapped mesoporous silica nanoparticles for sustained and prolonged drug release
Heveline D.M. Follmann,Heveline D.M. Follmann,Osvaldo N. Oliveira,Danielle Lazarin-Bidóia,Celso Vataru Nakamura,Xiaoxi Huang,Tewodros Asefa,Rafael Silva +7 more
TL;DR: The synthesis of novel hybrid organic-inorganic aerogel materials with one-dimensionally aligned pores with excellent drug loading capacity for DEX are shown and used as sustained and prolonged release systems for a hydrophobic drug.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nonprecious Bimetallic Sites Coordinated on N-Doped Carbons with Efficient and Durable Catalytic Activity for Oxygen Reduction.
TL;DR: A hierarchically porous bimetallic Fe/Co single-atom-coordinated N-doped carbon (Fe/Co-Nx -C) electrocatalyst for ORR is synthesized from Fe/coordinated polyporphyrin using silica template-assisted and silica-protection synthetic strategies and shows an outstanding operational stability and durability during the reaction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Micro–mesoporous iron oxides with record efficiency for the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide: morphology driven catalysis for the degradation of organic contaminants
Kasibhatta Josena Datta,Manoj B. Gawande,Kasibhatta Kumara Ramanatha Datta,Václav Ranc,Jiri Pechousek,M. Krizek,Jiri Tucek,R. Kale,P. Pospisil,Rajender S. Varma,Tewodros Asefa,Giorgio Zoppellaro,Radek Zboril +12 more
TL;DR: A template-free solid-state synthesis of a morphologically controlled and highly organized iron(III)oxide micro-mesoporous Fenton catalyst has been engineered through a simple two-step synthetic procedure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sequential Hydroboration–Alcoholysis and Epoxidation–Ring Opening Reactions of Vinyl Groups in Mesoporous Vinylsilica
Tewodros Asefa,Michal Kruk,Mark J. MacLachlan,Neil Coombs,Hiltrud Grondey,Mietek Jaroniec,Geoffrey A. Ozin +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the first successful conversion of organic groups of a functionalized ordered mesoporous silica host in alkaline solution, conditions known to be detrimental for silica frameworks, was reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Copper-Decorated Microsized Nanoporous Titanium Dioxide Photocatalysts for Carbon Dioxide Reduction by Water
TL;DR: A series of metallic copper (Cu)-decorated microsized, nanoporous titanium dioxide (TiO2) materials with different loadings of Cu were synthesized by in situ hydrolysis of Sn2+-grafted titanium glycolate microspheres in the presence of Cu2+ ions.
