Mesoporous silica particles

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to mesoporous silica particles, remarkable in that said mesoporous silica particles have a diameter size ranging between 50 nm and 150 nm as determined by transmission electron microscopy, wherein said mesoporous silica particles comprise an external surface with pores and an internal core comprising channels extending to said pores, the external surface being functionalized with a first type of functional group and the channels presenting a surface functionalized with a second type of functional group, the first type of functional group being different from the second type of functional group, wherein the pores have a diameter ranging between 5 nm and below 30 nm as determined by transmission electron microscopy and wherein said mesoporous silica particles show a dendrite morphology with dendrites evidenced by transmission electron microscopy.
