Gemini Surfactant as a Template Agent for the Synthesis of More Eco-Friendly Silica Nanocapsules

Silica mesoporous nanocapsules are a class of “smart” engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) applied in several fields. Recent studies have highlighted that they can exert deleterious effects into marine organisms, attributed to the use of the toxic cationic surfactant <i>N</i>-hexadecyl-<i&...
