ABSTRACT
Fibrous nanosilica (KCC-1) as a catalyst support was investigated in terms of stability, recycling, and reusability. For the first time, CO2 transformation was performed via the synthesis and application of KCC-1 together with sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP) and 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) as its functionalized derivative. To this goal, KCC-1/STPP NPs were applied to act as a nanocatalyst with excellent catalytic activities under green reaction conditions.
