Thomas Piketty, a professor at the Paris School of Economics, is not yet widely known in the global scientific economic community. However, his name may soon appear in the world’s scientific firmament, as he has published an extremely interesting, but also very intellectually provocative book, entitled: “Capital in the Twenty-First Century” (Capital in the Twenty-First Century – English translation, published by Belknap Press of Harvard University Press, 2014). The starting point of the author’s considerations is to show the great economic inequalities of the modern world, especially in the aspect of the almost unbelievable wealth belonging to about 1% of the richest people.

Among the numerous group of nanomaterials, nanofillers with bacteriostatic and biocidal properties, which are used in polymer plastics, coatings, paints, medical materials or coated fabrics, attract particular attention. Spherical silica containing various amounts of immobilized nanosilver was prepared by a sol-gel method combined with two-step SiO2 modification. The main factors determining the intended synthesis effect are the pH of the reaction mixture, stirring rate and temperature.
