D2.1 Protocols for silica film synthesis using surfactants and polyelectrolyte as templates

Thin silica films were synthesized using Pluronic F127(EO106PO70EO106) linear block copolymer and star block copolymer Tween 20.
Tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) was used as the silica source under acidic synthesis conditions in the presence of ethanol as a catalyst.
 
In this way SiO2-PE hybrid films were obtained.
