SiO multishell hollow spheres (MHSs) as supports have multiple porous layers and internal voids, which present notable advantages in regulating mass transport and chemical reactions. However, practical applications of SiO MHSs are severely hindered because of their high costs and low production efficiency issues. Herein, it is overcome these obstacles by developing a precursor hydrolysis method and demonstrate a cost-effective production of void-ratio tunable SiO MHSs on a large scale, which has a much lower cavitation temperature (25 °C) and one order of magnitude decrease in cost.

In this study, gallic acid (GA), a natural polyphenol, was used to synthesize three azole-modified gallic acid derivatives (AGAs1-3). The antifungal activity of GA and its derivatives against was studied through mycelial growth rate experiments and field efficacy experiments.
