to obtain spherical nanosilica with high surface area and
narrow pore size distribution. The synthesis did not involve
the use of template molecules. This has avoided the need
for calcination which usually requires high temperatures.
This is a simple, cheap and low energy method to produce
nanosilica which will benefit both environmental and
industrial, with ever increasing call for greener and safer
technology. The method developed is suitable for mass
production and also helps to minimize the disposal problem
of RH.
