Glass beads can be used to purify, enrich, or separate samples of solids, liquids, or gases. They offer excellent batch consistency to ensure reliable, reproducible results.
Application
Design of closed loop for reproduction of gas-dominated hydrate flow: Utilizes 5 mm glass beads in a novel experimental setup to study the flow dynamics of gas hydrates, which is crucial for developing safer and more efficient energy transport systems (Wada et al., 2024).
Physicochemical cell disruption of Bacillus sp. for recovery of polyhydroxyalkanoates: This study highlights the role of 5 mm glass beads in the effective disruption of bacterial cells, enhancing the recovery of bioplastics and contributing to sustainable material production (Bhat et al., 2024).
Preparation and Characterization of TiO(2)-Coated Hollow Glass Beads for Functionalization of Deproteinized Natural Rubber Latex: Demonstrates the use of 5 mm glass beads coated with TiO2 to improve the mechanical properties and UV resistance of natural rubber, essential for developing advanced materials (Nijpanich et al., 2023).
Halotolerant bacterial biofilms for desalination and water treatment: Employs 5 mm glass beads as biofilm carriers to enhance the efficiency of bacterial processes in water purification systems, addressing global challenges in water scarcity (Gauhar et al., 2023).
