Mesoporous Silica

Glantreo has vast knowledge in the manufacture of Mesoporous Silica (MS). For almost 5 years we have supplied large quantities (up to kg quantites) of Mesoporous Silica to our Researcher and Industry partners.

[one_third] Applications that our Mesoporous Silicas have been used for include:

  • Phospholipid/phosphoprotein removal
  • Chromatography
  • Drug Delivery
  • Hard Templating
  • Immobilization of Bioactive Molecules
  • Encapsulation of natural oils, flavours and heat sensitive additives
  • Polymer Reinforcement
  • Catalysis
  • Theoretical Confinement Studies
[/one_third] [one_third] Types of mesoporous silica manufactured:

  • SBA Type 15
  • SBA Type 16
  • MCM Type 41
  • MCM Type 48
  • Metal Doped (SBA Type 15 & MCM Type 48)
  • Custom particles varied by specific pore size, morphology, surface area etc upon request
