Product Detail

SBA-16 is a mesoporous silica (SiO₂, CAS No. 7631-86-9) synthesized using tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) as a silicon source and a ternary combination of surfactant (F127, EO₁₀₆PO₇₀EO₁₀₆), water and butanol. Its pore structure is a three-dimensional cage, cubic Im3m-type, with better mass transfer kinetics than SBA-15. ACS Material SBA-16 is prepared by the hydrothermal method and is supplied calcined and ready to use, with a BET surface area of 700–900 m²/g and a pore diameter of 3.0–5.0 nm.

About SBA-16

SBA-16 is a mesoporous silica synthesized using tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) as a silicon source and a ternary combination of surfactant (F127 (EO₁₀₆PO₇₀EO₁₀₆)), water, and butanol. SBA-16’s pore structure is a three-dimensional cage, cubic Im3m-type with better mass transfer kinetics than SBA-15. SBA-16 is suitable for a variety of applications, including chromatography, drug delivery, catalysis, and imaging.

ACS Material is pleased to provide a range of mesoporous silicas with unique properties, structures, and morphologies. The ability to tailor pore dimensions with high surface areas makes these materials invaluable in tasks such as waste water remediation, catalysis, drug delivery, indoor air cleaning, CO₂ capture, and many others. Mesoporous silica can also be used as templates for regulating the aspect ratio of quantum-confined nanowires and particles.
