General description

Our monodisperse, non-porous silica powder is a white powder composed of speherical particles, precisely engineered to achieve a monodisperse particle size of 30 µm. The microparticles do not contain any internal porosity or void spaces, making their surfaces impermeable to fluids or gases.

Application

Non-porous silica particles are widely recognized for their biocompatibility, making them a promising option for various biomedical applications. They have the potential to serve as carriers in drug delivery systems, imaging agents, and a bioconjugation platform for diagnostic assays. In the field of biomedicine, these particles can be employed to deliver drugs, proteins, and biomolecules through conjugation.[,] In the field of electronics, monodisperse non-porous silica can be self-assembled into arrays for optoelectronic applications like lenses, dielectric layers, and patterning at micron lengthscales.
