| Abstract | A one-pot method was introduced to fabricate Ag–SiO$_{2}$ hollow composite spheres with developed porosity by employing monodisperse carboxylic-capped polystyrene (PS–COOH) spheres as a hard template. During the synthetic process, Ag$^{+}$ ions were immediately anchored on the surface of the PS–COOH spheres via electrostatic interaction and readily reduced by employing polymethylhydrosiloxane (PMHS) as a reducing agent. At the same time, silica oligomers derived from the hydrolysis of PMHS and TEOS were slowly deposited on the PS–COOH spheres to form solid silica shells. Subsequent decomposition of the PS–COOH spheres in air induced the formation of Ag–SiO$_{2}$ hollow spheres. The as-prepared products were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and N$_{2}$ absorption–desorption study. The results show that the well-designed composite spheres featured thin and spherical silica shell (~10 nm), large surface area (>240 m$^{2}$ g$^{−1}$) and mesopore (6.0–9.0 nm). In addition, the Ag–SiO$_{2}$ hollow composite spheres exhibited high catalytic performance toward the reduction of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) to 4-aminophenol (4-AP).A one-pot method was reported to prepare Ag–SiO$_{2}$ hollow spheres with well-developed porosity, which exhibited high catalytic performance and durable activity for the reaction of 4-NP to 4-AP. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
