General description
Application
- As an anti-solvent to fabricate efficient perovskite layer for inverted planar solar cells with enhanced power conversion efficiency and reproducibility. TEOS helps to achieve high-quality perovskite films with reduced density of defects, and thus slower carrier recombination.
- As a sol-gel precursor to synthesize SiO2-TiO2 anti-reflective self-cleaning coatings for solar cells.
- To fabricate nano silica functionalized crosslinked hybrid membranes for proton exchange membrane fuel cell applications. These membranes have better proton conductivity and thermal stability.
- To prepare poly(vinylidene fluoride)/TEOS matrix separator to enhance the performance of Li-ion batteries. The separator exhibits excellent electrolyte retention and wettability.
Features and Benefits
- Excellent adhesion on substrates
- Uniform film deposition
- Cross-linker to introduce polymer strands into hydrogel

Silica is a very popular inorganic nanomaterial used in a wide range of applications including fillers for rubber, catalyst supports, separation media, carriers in food and agriculture, and abrasive/anticaking agents in cosmetics. It is also widely believed to be an important material for biomedical applications for following reasons.
Magnetism and magnetic materials have been of scientific interest for over 1,000 years. More recently, fundamental investigations have focused on exploring the various types of magnetic materials and understanding the magnetic effects created by electric currents.
Hybrid organic-inorganic sol-gel materials containing silica were first called “ORMOSILs” in 1984.
Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
