General description
We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one of the four categories of Greener Alternatives. This is an enabling product and can be used as an alternative anode in lithium ion batteries due to its high energy storage capacity, low working potential, and abundance, offering a greener, potentially more sustainable option for energy storage.

Silica, mesostructured (MCM-41) is a part of low-density organized mesoporous silicate system which has a 2D hexagonal phase, prepared in the presence of quaternary ammonium halide surfactant. It has ordered and large pores with diameter in the range 1.5-10 nm and specific surface area of 1500 m2/g.
Application
MCM-41 may be used as a base material that can be assembled with platinum complexes to develop luminescent oxygen sensing materials. It may also be used as an adsorbent in CO2 capture application. Surface functionalized MCM-41 may be used as a catalyst in the synthesis of bisphenol A.
