Spray drying technique is used to manufacture Large Hollow Nanoparticulate Aggregates (LHNPA) from colloidal silica nanoparticles. Factorial design experiments were built to investigate the effect of five parameters on the shape, size and degree of hollowness of spray-dried colloidal silica nanopart...
