abstract = {The manifold applications of porous materials, such as in
storage, separation, and catalysis, have led to an enormous
interest in their cost-efficient preparation. A promising
strategy to obtain porous materials with adjustable pore
size and morphology is to use templates exhibiting the
appropriate nanostructure. In this study, close-packed
polystyrene (PS) nanoparticles, synthesized by emulsion
polymerization, were used to produce porous PS and ZnO
inverse opals. The size and distribution of the polystyrene
nanoparticles, characterized by dynamic light scattering
(DLS), small-angle neutron scattering (SANS), and scanning
electron microscopy (SEM), were controlled via the
concentration of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). Systematic
measurements of the water/styrene-interfacial tension show
that the critical micelle concentration (CMC) of the ternary
water–styrene–SDS system, which determines whether
monodisperse or polydisperse PS particles are obtained, is
considerably lower than that of the binary water–SDS
system. The assemblies of close-packed PS nanoparticles
obtained via drying were then studied by small-angle X-ray
scattering (SAXS) and SEM. Both techniques prove that PS
nanoparticles synthesized above the CMC result in a
significantly unordered but denser packing of the particles.
The polystyrene particles were subsequently used to produce
porous polystyrene and ZnO inverse opals. While the former
consists of micrometer-sized spherical pores surrounded by
extended open-cellular regions of mesopores (Rpore ≈ 25
nm), the latter are made of ZnO-nanoparticles forming a
structure of well-aligned interconnected pores.},
