Abstract :The magnetically separable mesoporous silica nanocomposites were successfully prepared through a one-pot method including the co-condensation of tetraethoxysilane insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(TEOS); as silica precursor and 3-mercaptopropyl trimethoxysilane insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(MPTMS); as functionalizing agent accompanied with hydrogen peroxide for oxidation of mercapto groups and triblock copolymers as structure directing agent in the presence of ferromagnetic and superparamagnetic Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles. By incorporating the superparamagnetic insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(near zero coercivity); Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles to the mesoporous silica insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(SBA-15); and functionalizing with sulfonic acid groups instead of ferromagnetic Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles, we developed versatile nanocomposite having superior properties with respect to magnetism, catalysis and porosity. Reducing the particle size of Fe 3 O 4 from the ferromagnetic regime to the superparamagnetic regime, the pore closure could be eliminated because of the more open pore as well as saving magnetic properties.
