RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 Surface functionalized silica nanoparticles for the off–on fluorogenic detection of an improvised explosive, TATP, in a vapour flow A1 García Calvo, José A1 Calvo Gredilla, Patricia A1 Ibáñez Llorente, Marcos A1 Romero Velásquez, Daisy Carolina A1 Cuevas Vicario, José Vicente A1 García Herbosa, Gabriel A1 Avella, Manuel A1 Torroba Pérez, Tomás K1 Química inorgánica K1 Chemistry, Inorganic AB We report the development of new fluorogenic silica nanomaterials that were able to generatefluorescence in the presence of vapours of triacetone triperoxide, TATP, an improvised explosive used interrorist attacks. The materials worked in a vapour flow of TATP, giving a permanent and stronglyfluorescent response.
