Benefitting from the unique lamellar structure of MMTNS, mesoporous channels are formed on the shell of MMTNS@CS hollow spheres, resulting in high surface area. Moreover, the surface functionalization and pore size of MMTNS@CS-HMPHS can be easily tuned, due to the tailored property through Lb L assembly method.Besides the unique microstructure, MMTNS@CS-HMPHS also possesses the active sites generated from both MMT and chitosan, which greatly promotes its performance in fields of adsorption, drug delivery and catalyst supports, etc.展开更多
