The formed MSN were characterised by FTIR, XRD and BET. In this study, ILs of long alkyl chains of cation was found to decrease the pore size of the MSNs thus, increasing the surface area. FTIR spectroscopy affirmed the formation of SiO2 while the broad peak in the X-ray diffractogram conveyed that the silica of MSNs is amorphous. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd. date: 2018 publisher: Institute of Physics Publishing official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85058209362&doi=10.1088%2f1742-6596%2f1123%2f1%2f012068&partnerID=40&md5=ca30b336158da4342a9737906571d93d id_number: 10.1088/1742-6596/1123/1/012068 full_text_status: none publication: Journal of Physics: Conference Series volume: 1123 number: 1 refereed: TRUE issn: 17426588 citation: Rameli, N. and Jumbri, K. and Wahab, R.A. and Ramli, A. and Huyop, F.
