Bioinspired Scaffolding by Supramolecular Amines Allows the Formation of One‐ and Two‐Dimensional Silica Superstructures

Silica materials attract an increasing amount of interest in (fundamental) research, and find applications in, for example, sensing, catalysis, and drug delivery. As the properties of these (nano)materials not only depend on their chemistry but also their size, shape, and surface area, the controllable synthesis of silica is essential for tailoring the materials to specific applications. Advantageously, bioinspired routes for silica production...
