In summary, the 2D porous material with
unique pore configuration, ultrathin structure, abundant mesopores and
appealing surface properties, is one of the most promising candidates for
obtaining efficient functional nanomaterials for practical applications. The
reported monolayer mesoporous nanosheets consisting of “U-shaped” mesopore
units with a unique surface asymmetry can exhibit a high demulsification efficiency
and stability. The formation mechanism and the structure activity relationship
of such 2D mesoporous Janus nanosheet were also revealed. Nevertheless, the
component obtained by this dual-emulsion directed monomicelle assembly was only
for organosilica, and it was hard to extend to other components, limiting their
potential applications. So, it is significant to improve the versatility of
this synthetic strategy. Overall, the current work contributes new insights to
the invention of brand-new mesoporous materials with hierarchical structures,
new pore configuration and surface properties, which can attract a broad readership
in chemistry, materials science, and biomedical engineering
