In this study, silica hollow tubes with ordered mesopores were synthesized via a novel sol-gel method with an ionic liquid 1-decyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride([Dmim]Cl) and a nonionic surfactant P123(PEO_(20)PPO_(70)PEO_(20)) as the co-template. Comparatively, silica hollow spheres with disordered mesopores were synthesized with only [Dmim]Cl as the template. The template dosage is the key factor in controlling the morphology.
