“…Nanospheres of SiO 2 can be prepared by a modied Stöber method. [24][25][26] The oxidation-selfpolymerization of PDA needs to be carried out under alkaline conditions, [27][28][29][30] which coincides with the alkaline microenvironment of the synthesized SiO 2 to further form a dense PDA layer on the SiO 2 surface. Then the conductive carbon nanospheres are obtained by thermal cracking.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
