Highly ordered mesoporous iron oxide (α- Fe 2 O 3) material has been successfully obtained from mesoporous silica template, KIT-6 (3-D Cubic Ia3d symmetry), through nano-replication method. The mesoporous α- Fe 2 O 3 material thus obtained exhibits well-defined mesopores (2.7 nm in diameter), high surface area (148 m2/g), high pore volume (0.47 cm3/g) and crystalline frameworks. The morphology of the mesoporous α- Fe 2 O 3 material is very uniform in spherical shape of which the average particle size is about 100 nm in diameter.

This work reports the fabrication of iron oxide mesoporous magnetic nanostructures (IO-MMNs) via the nano-replication method using acid-prepared mesoporous spheres (APMS) as the rigid silica host and iron (III) nitrate as the iron precursor. The obtained nanosized mesostructures were fully characterized by SEM, TEM, DLS, FTIR, XRD, VSM, and nitrogen physisorption. IO-MMNs exhibited relatively high surface areas and large pore volumes (SBET = 70–120 m2/g and Vpore = 0.25–0.45 cm3/g), small sizes (~300 nm), good crystallinity and magnetization, and excellent biocompatibility. With their intrinsic porosities, high drug loading efficiencies (up to 70%) were achieved and the drug release rates were found to be pH-dependent. Cytotoxicity, confocal microscopy, and flow cytometry experiments against different types of cancerous cells indicated that Dox-loaded IO-MMNs reduced the viability of metastatic MCF-7 and KAIMRC-1 breast as well as HT-29 colon cancer cells, with the least uptake and toxicity towards normal primary cells (up to 4-fold enhancement). These results strongly suggest the potential use of IO-MMNs as promising agents for enhanced and effective drug delivery in cancer theranostics.

Hydrophobic Silica

The hydrophobic silica granular aerogels were synthesized via sol-gel synthesis followed by ambient pressure drying. The tetraethyloxylane (TEOS) was used as original precursor. The aerogels were analyzed using nitrogen adsorption, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and laser particle size analyzer. It was found that the aerogel was mesoporous material with high surface area. The aerogels were prepared in grain form by dipping into disperse solution in order to adsorption application. The average particle size of the aerogel was controlled by pH and disperse solution volume. The pH also affected gel time. The aerogels were used to absorb phenol from water. The saturated adsorption amount could reach up to 145 mg•g-1.

Efficient Removal

Palladium nanoparticles (Pd-NPs) and nickel oxide nanoparticles (NiO-NPs) were synthesized and loaded on activated carbon (AC). This novel material successfully used for the removal of methylene blue (MB) dye from aqueous medium. Full characterization of both material using X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and Brunauer–Emmet–Teller analyses for Pd-NP show their high surface area (>1340 m2/g) and low pore size (<20 Å) and average particle size lower than 45 Å and for NiO-NP show their high surface area (>1316.1554 m2/g) and low pore size (<20 Å) and average particle size lower than 46 Å in addition to high reactive atom and presence of various functional groups. These unique properties make them possible for efficient removal of MB. In batch experimental set-up, optimum conditions for maximum removal of MB by both adsorbents were attained following searching effect of variables such as central composite design. The Langmuir isotherm was found to be highly recommended for fitting the experimental equilibrium data. The kinetic of adsorption of MB on both adsorbents strongly can be fitted by a combination of pseudo-second order and intraparticle diffusion pathway. The experimental result achieved in this article shows the superiority of Pd-NP-AC for MB removal than NiO-NP-AC, so the maximum adsorption capacities of Pd-NP-AC and NiO-NP-AC were 555.5 mg/g and 588.2 mg/g, respectively.

Biphenyl wrinkled mesoporous silica nanoparticles with controlled particle size and high surface area were evaluated for the storage and delivery of doxorubicin. The average particle size and surface area were ~70 nm and ~1100 m2/g. The doxorubicin loading efficiency was 38.2 ± 1.5 (w/w)% and the release was pH dependent. The breast cancer cell line, MCF-7 (Michigan Cancer Foundation-7) was used for the in vitro drug release study. The cytotoxicity of doxorubicin-loaded nanoparticles was significantly higher than free doxorubicin. Fluorescence images showed biphenyl wrinkled mesoporous silica (BPWS) uptake by the MCF-7 cells. The biphenyl bridged wrinkled silica nanoparticles appear promising for hydrophobic drug loading and delivery.

Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) have high saturation magnetization and are promising candidates for hyperthermia. They may act as magnetic heating agents when subjected to magnetic field in nano-based hyperthermia. In this work, cube-like Fe3O4 nanoparticles (labelled as cubic SPIONs) with reduced graphene oxide (RGO) nanocomposites were prepared by a microwave hydrothermal method. The shape and size of magnetic nanoparticles were controlled by varying synthesis parameters, including reaction time, pressure and microwave power. This study successfully synthesized cubic SPIONs nanocomposites with an average particle size between 24–34 nm. Poly-(ethylene) glycol (PEG) was used as a coating material on SPIONs to enhance biocompatibility. The RGO sheets provided a high surface area-to-volume ratio for SPIONs to be dispersed on their surface, and hence, they prevented aggregation of the SPIONs in the nanocomposites. Magnetically induced heating studies on the optimized nanocomposite (Fe3O4/RGO/PEG) demonstrated heating capabilities for magnetic hyperthermia application with a promising specific absorption rate (SAR) value of 58.33 W/g in acidic solution. Cytotoxicity tests were also performed to ensure low nanoparticle toxicity before incorporation into the human body. The results of the standard assay for the toxicity determination of the nanocomposites revealed over 70% cell survival after 48 h, suggesting the feasibility of using the synthesized nanocomposites for magnetic hyperthermia.

Presently, biopolymer materials have been given more attention for their outstanding properties, high efficiencies and promising applications in various fields. In this study, Fe2O3/chitosan aerogel-like spheres were successfully prepared from chitosan and FeCl3 by sol–gel process and freeze-drying to provide high-surface area materials. The factors affecting the material synthesis have been studied. The asprepared Fe2O3/chitosan material was characterized by Infrared Spectroscopy (IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) methods. The results showed that the aerogel spheres have a hollow structure made of chitosan nanofibril networks. Fe2O3 nanoparticles get high crystallinity and have an average particle size of 33 nm.

Original Weight

ABSTRACTAerogels are highly porous solids prepared by sol-gel processing and supercritical evacuation. Because of their high surface area, aerogels can be used as an effective catalyst for the thermal decomposition of many gaseous compounds. A variety of hydrocarbon gases have been chosen to deposit carbon in the aerogel matrix, with the deposition temperature varying from 500° to 850°C depending on the hydrocarbon used. The amount of carbon that can be deposited in the aerogel is surprisingly large, reaching up to 10 times the original weight after extensive deposition using acetylene. Overall, the aerogel composites prepared have a uniform microstructure with the average particle size in the nanometer range. In addition, we have observed some interesting graphitic structures including carbon nanotubes and rings of various shapes. Carbon deposited in the aerogel can reduce infrared transmission of the material as well as volume shrinkage at elevated temperatures, thereby improving its thermal performance.

AbstractSingle phase nanocrystalline La0.6Ca0.4MnO3 powder was synthesized by both the usual and a modified citrate gel precursor method, and the effects on the formation of homogeneous nano-sized powder with a perovskite structure were investigated. In the modified method, single phase La0.6Ca0.4MnO3 powder with an average particle size of 17.2 nm was obtained when the powder was pyrolyzed at 520°C for 2 h. Its specific surface area was 40.7 m2 g−1, about 4-fold larger than that of powder made by the usual citrate gel method.
