Abstract

A simplified procedure of synthesizing nano-sized hollow silicate particles (NHSPs) of 80-200 nm in average diameter and approximately 30 nm in wall thickness via (soft template) soluble-poly(methacrylic acid) sodium salt (NaPMA) is presented here. The process is easily scalable and can be carried out at ambient temperature. When deposited as thin (nanolayer) film, NHSPs show good transparency in visible spectra range and good sorption of CO2 for thermal energy efficiency especially in the field of thermal insulation application.
