Mesoporous silica SBA-15 and SBA-16 as working electrode for electrochemical determination of ascorbic acid and uric acid in water / Hashazirah Mohamad Hassan

Mesoporous silica SBA-15 and SBA-16 were synthesized via the surfactant templating technique. Two important components in synthesizing mesoporous silica are the silica source and surfactant. The silica source used was tetraorthosilicate (TEOS). The surfactant used were Pluronic P123 for SBA-15 and P...
