Abstract

Abstract We report skeletal silica nanoparticles using a cubic template whose surface is coated by surfactant. The controlling factors, (a) high acidity of silanol compared to that of surfactant, (b) low affinity between surfactant and organic medium, and (c) high surface energy of vertex and edge of the template, are associated to obtain such structures.
