Organic hybrid silica colloidal particles are widely used in the field of biomedicine due to their unique properties.The size of nanoparticles required for different organs tissues is also different.Therefore,size-controllable organic hybrid silica colloidal particles play a crucial role in biomedical ap-plications.In this paper,vinyltrimethoxysilane(VTMS)was used as the precursor of silane,and am-monium hydroxide was used as the catalyst.Size-controlled organic hybrid silica colloidal particles were prepared by the spontaneous emulsification of the silane precursor under alkaline conditions,fol-lowed by polymerization initiated by ammonium persulfate(APS).The effects of different conditions,such as the type of initiator,precursor concentration,ammonium hydroxide concentration,and emulsi-fication time,on the size of the organic hybrid silica colloidal particles were investigated using field e-mission scanning electron microscopy and ImageJ software.The results showed that an increase in pre-cursor concentration led to an increase in the size of the organic hybrid silica colloidal particles,while an increase in ammonium hydroxide concentration had the opposite effect.
