Using N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) as a monomer, a core–shell material was successfully prepared via in situ polymerization on the surface of silica microspheres (named NIPAM@Sil), which acts as a hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) stationary phase. A method for the in situ polymerization of polymer monomers on a silica surface has been developed. It was shown using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) that NIPAM is evenly distributed on the surface of the silica. The synthesized NIPAM@Sil possesses a polar acylamino group arising from the polymerization of NIPAM. As demonstrated by the hydrophilicity, NIPAM@Sil showed excellent HILIC performance for the separation of hydrophilic compounds. This method provides a simple approach for the preparation of a polymer coated silica core–shell stationary phase.

In this paper, the core–shell structured SiO 2 @YVO 4 :Yb 3+ ,Er 3+ microspheres have been successfully prepared via a facile sol–gel process followed by a heat treatment. X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, energy disperse X-ray spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and photoluminescence spectra were used to characterize the samples. The results reveal that the SiO 2 spheres have been successfully coated by YVO 4 :Yb 3+ ,Er 3+ phosphors to form core–shell structures and the size of obtained microspheres has a uniform distribution. Additionally, the samples exhibit bright green luminescence under the excitation of a 980 nm laser diode. The photoluminescence intensity increases with the number of coatings. These core–shell structured SiO 2 @YVO 4 :Yb 3+ ,Er 3+ microspheres may have great potential in the fields of infrared detection and display devices.

Artificial brochosome-shaped microspheres closely mimicking natural brochosomes are highly desired however challenging to synthesize. Herein silica brochosome-shaped microspheres (SiO2 BMs) are successfully synthesized by simply adjusting the NH4OH/p-xylene ratio. The obtained BMs, with a diameter of 530 nm and highly accessible open pores of ∼130 nm, demonstrate high similarity to natural brochosomes in size, shape, and pores geometry. A mechanism of droplets assembly originating from the surface charge transformation of the emulsion droplets is proposed by carefully investigating the in situ dynamic evolution of BMs intermediates. The priority growth of primary particles at the interface of the adjusting droplets forms the pores wall of BMs with regular distribution. Benefiting from the unique structure, the SiO2 BMs show excellent antiadhesion (superhydrophobic) and antireflection (at least 70% reduction for vertical reflection), indicating the high functional similarity to natural brochosomes. The synthesized BMs demonstrate sufficient load capacity, suggesting great potential in energy conversion and biomedical applications.

Hydrothermal carbon (HTC) and modified hydrothermal carbon coated silica microspheres were optimized and applied for the separation of phenolic acids, standard saccharides and natural oligosaccharides in the extract of Traditional Chinese Herbal Medicine (TCM). The materials obtained were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), the BET surface area analysis and the zeta potential. The investigation of the synthesized materials and the purchased amide modified silica stationary phases column was performed with a set of test solutes. Both the synthesized HTC coated silica gel (silica@HTC) and the modified silica@HTC column exhibit excellent hydrophilicity. Notably, the poly(ethyleneimine) (PEI) modified silica@HTC column demonstrates superior chromatographic performance in the separation of saccharides. This work showed significant potential in the modification of novel hydrothermal carbon stationary phases for application in separating polar oligosaccharide compositions from TCM extracts and similar sources.

Ag nanoparticles (Ag NPs) were deposited on the surface of micron silica spheres. The structure of the composite was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), transmission electron microscope (TEM) and inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) method. The as-prepared micron-SiO 2 @nano-Ag particles were used as a catalyst in the borohydride reduction reaction of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP), which was detected by UV–vis absorption spectroscopy. The result showed that the composite particles presented a comparable catalytic activity with that of spherical silver nanoparticles.

In the present work, a novel microchannel device was developed and used for the preparation of core–shell microspheres combining with a dextran/poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (DEX/PEGDA) aqueous two-phase system. Silica@silica core–shell microspheres were prepared as a model material. Silica@silica core–shell microspheres with different sizes of cores and thicknesses of shells were prepared by using different flowrate ratios of DEX/silica and PEGDA/silica aqueous solutions. The content of colloidal silica and the calcination temperature have a significant effect on the texture properties of the prepared core–shell microspheres. The surface area decreased from 199 to 177 m2/g with an increase in the colloidal silica content from 30 to 60 wt %. For a specific colloidal silica content (50 wt %), with the increase in calcination temperature from room temperature to 650 °C, the total pore volume went through a maximum of 0.7 cm3 g–1 with a surface area of 178 m2 g–1 and pore size of 7.32 nm at 450 °C. Due to the accumulation of metal nanoparticles in DEX, different metal nanoparticles (Ni and Pd) were successfully introduced into the core of the core–shell microspheres for the preparation of silica/metal nanoparticles@silica core–shell microsphere catalysts. The catalysts showed similar catalytic performance as the metal nanoparticles for hydrogenation of 4-nitrophenol with a conversion higher than 95%. However, the core–shell microsphere catalyst is much easier to recover. The reuse experiments indicated that the core–shell catalyst has high stability.

Monodisperse silica microspheres with average diameters from 1 μm to 2 μm were synthesized by a modified Stöber method, in which an ethanolic solution of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) was continuously supplied to the reaction mixture containing KCl electrolyte, water, ethanol and ammonia. The effects of reactant amounts, supply rate, and reaction temperature on the microsphere morphology were investigated. After surface modification with octadecyl trichlorosilane, the obtained monodisperse C18-silica microspheres with an average diameter of 1.5 μm were applied to ultra performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) separation of fullerenes. Because of having a smaller size, the 1.5 μm monodisperse C18-silica UPLC stationary phase shows ultra high efficiency compared with the commercial C18-silica HPLC stationary phase with average diameters from 5 to 50 μm.

In this work, for the first time five amine-ligands including mono-amine, di-amine, tri-amine, secondary and tertiary amine, were functionalized on mesoporous micro-silicas and developed as stationary phases for hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC). The investigations about the retention mechanisms, effects of different chromatographic conditions and stability were systematically conducted. Three kinds of polar and hydrophilic compounds (saccharides, sulfonamides, nucleosides and nucleobases) were selected as probe molecules to evaluate their separation performances. Among the five stationary phases, only aminopropyl-bonded silica has already gained wide developments and applications. Whereas, there are no related researches about the other four to be utilized as separation media. By a series of chromatographic evaluations, the results revealed the other four mesoporous micro-silica materials functionalized with di-amine, tri-amine, secondary and tertiary amine, had great potential to be explored as novel stationary phases of HILIC. Particularly, the two stationary phases functionalized with di-amine and tri-amine exhibited outstanding separation and retention abilities. This work offered some insights on the understanding of retention in HILIC mode and provided us possibility to explore other amine-based HILIC stationary phases.

Creating secondary nanostructures from fundamental building blocks with simultaneous high loading capacity and well-controlled size/uniformity, is highly desired for nanoscale synergism and integration of functional units. Here a novel strategy is reported for hydrophobic quantum dots (QDs) assembley with porous templates, to form pitaya-type fluorescent silica colloids with densely packed and intact QDs throughout the silica matrix. The mercapto-terminated dendritic silica spheres with highly accessible central–radial pores and metal-affinity interior surface, are adopted as a powerful absorbent host for direct immobilization of QDs from organic phase with high loading capacity. The alkylsilane mediated silica encapsulation prevents QDs' optical degradation induced by ligand exchange and favors the homogeneous silica shell formation. These multiple QD embedded silica spheres exhibit good compatibility for different colored QDs with well-preserved fluorescence, high colloidal/optical stability, and versatile surface functionality. It is demonstrated that after integration with a lateral flow strip platform, these silica colloids provide an ultrasensitive, specific, and robust immunoassay for C-reaction protein in clinical samples as promising fluorescent reporters.

Owing to enantiomers’ identical physical and chemical properties, separation work in the chiral environments is still a great challenge.and chemical properties. Chromatographic techniques employing chiral stationary phases (CSPs) have been developed as powerful tools for the chiral analysis and preparation of pure enantiomers . Here we report a facile synthesis of vancomycin stationary phase based on diazotized silica. Monodisperse silica particles were synthesized by a modified Stöber method. The obtained silica particles were modified by self-assembly photosensitive diazoresin (DR) and vancomycin on the surface. After treatment with UV light, the ionic bonding was converted into covalent bonding through a unique photochemistry reaction of DR. Baseline separation of chiral drugs was achieved by using the vancomycin@SiO 2 particles as packing materials in high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The effects of separation parameters including elution mode, flow rate and analyte mass on the enantioselectivity of the CSP were investigated in detail. Due to the replacement of highly toxic and moisture sensitive silane agent by water soluble non-toxic DR in the modification of silica microspheres , this method provides a green and easy way to manufacture packing materials for chromatography applications.

A templating strategy using crosslinked and functionalized polymeric beads to synthesize silica microspheres with a broad pore size distribution has been developed. The polymer/silica hybrid microspheres were prepared by utilizing the combination of a templating weak cation exchange resin, a structure-directing agent N -trimethoxysilylpropyl- N , N , N -trimethylammonium chloride, and a silica precursor tetraethyl orthosilicate. The silica microspheres were then obtained after calcinating the hybrid microspheres. The as-prepared materials were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, mercury intrusion porosimeter, and thermal gravimetric analysis. The results showed that the starting templating beads were about 5 μm in diameter and the formed silica microspheres were less than 3 μm with a pore size range of 10–150 nm, some pores were even extended to beyond 250 nm. It was demonstrated that cellulose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) was readily coated onto the surface of the as-synthesized silica microspheres without any additional surface pretreatment. The coated silica microspheres were uniformly dispersed even with high loading of the chiral stationary phase, which exhibited high resolution chiral separations in high-performance liquid chromatography.

Combining composite hydrogel with silica gel can endow hydrogel with new application possibilities. In this work, polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) were combined into a composite hydrogel, which was then wrapped on the surface of 1-undecenoic acid (UA) bonded silica microspheres. As a result, a novel PVP/PVA composite hydrogel-functionalized silica stationary phase (PVP/PVA@Sil-UA) was prepared by a green and facile method. Specifically, the thiol-ene click reaction was preferentially used to bond a hydrophobic long-chain carboxylic acid (UA) on the surface of thiolated silica gel in deep eutectic solvent, which was able to provide abundant hydrogen bonding sites for the further coating of PVP/PVA composite hydrogel. The hydrophobic long alkyl chain not only improved the separation selectivity, but also effectively alleviated the swelling of hydrogel. It was discovered that the prepared PVP/PVA@Sil-UA showed outstanding separation performance for a wide range of samples. The study of retention behavior proved that the PVP/PVA@Sil-UA was a mixed-mode chromatographic stationary phase, possessing hydrophilic and hydrophobic retention characteristics. In summary, an eco-friendly method was applied to realize the effective combination of composite hydrogel and SiO 2 due to the fact that no harmful organic solvents were used in the preparation process, which provided a novel idea for the application of composite hydrogel in the field of chromatographic separation.
