A-SiNC was synthesized from the microemulsion method by using cetyl trimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) as a cationic surfactant, toluene as co-solvent, APTES as an amine group, and tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) as silica base. The synthesis and functionalization were carried out in a variation of APTES using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), nitrogen adsorption-desorption measurements (BET), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The results showed that silica nanocapsules (SiNC) potential to react until a temperature of 166 �°C, which indicates a stable thermal decomposition property. The surface area and surface morphology were influenced by the presence of an amino group as APTES loaded SiNC provides a different mechanism compared to blank SiNC. The close-packed structure was seen and proven in A-SiNC based on the observation from TEM. © 2022 Elsevier Inc. date: 2022 publisher: Academic Press Inc. official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85126535972&doi=10.1016%2fj.jssc.2022.123019&partnerID=40&md5=d3eb0a4b737910c768882245147235ae id_number: 10.1016/j.jssc.2022.123019 full_text_status: none publication: Journal of Solid State Chemistry volume: 310 refereed: TRUE issn: 00224596 citation: Thangarajoo, N. and Abdul Rahim, A.R. and Johari, K. and Saman, N.
