Mesoporous silica particulate structures of different morphologies from particles to capsules have been prepared by combining the sol-gel process with the cooperative self-assembly in inverse miniemulsion. We report a novel synthetic approach at room temperature, with low surfactant concentrations (5 and 10 mol %, relative to the precursor), and it short synthesis time of only a few hours. As a precursor, glycol-modified silane (tetrakis(2-hydroxyethyl)orthosilicate, EGMS) is used, which shows the advantage of being highly water-soluble. The precursor (EGMS) and the structuring surfactant (cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, CTAB) were dissolved in hydrochloric acid and dispersed in a mixture of hydrocarbons (Isopar M) by ultrasonication. In this synthesis, two different surfactants were used simultaneously One surfactant (CTAB) acts as a lyotropic template, whereas the second surfactant. is an amphiphilic block copolymer (PE/B-b-PEO) that stabilize!; the droplets. For template removal, the final material was calcined. The obtained materials were Characterized by dynamic light scattering (DLS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and nitrogen sorption (Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) methodology) The effect Of Synthesis conditions such as the amount of templating surfactant (CTAB), the temperature during ultrasonication, the reaction time, the pH value, and the amount of stabilizing surfactant (PE/B-b-PEO) on cooperative self-assembly, morphology, and specific surface area were investigated Shortly after ultrasonication, porous particles a few hundreds of nanometers in size are formed, which are transformed to capsules and finally to porous flakes with increasing reaction time. This transformation is strongly influenced by the amount of stabilizing surfactant (PE/B-b-PEO). By simply varying the amount of PE/B-b-PEO, the morphology and mesostructural ordering, as well as the porosity, can be tuned over a wide range.
