Nanoporous marvels | Introduction to nanoporous materials and their application in electrocatalysis and gas sensing technologies
13 January 2024
Nanoporous materials or layers refer to substances with structures characterized by a network of pores or voids at the nanometer scale, typically ranging from 1 to 100 nm in size. The nanoporous nature of these materials provides an exceptionally high surface area relative to their volume, which is a key factor in their utility.
Sparking a revolution in catalysis by mixing anything with anything
27 December 2023
Gas phase processes for nanoparticle production can reach much higher levels of purity than conventional liquid-based ones. This leads to products that are better defined in their chemical nanostructure, and it is to be expected that theoretical predictions have a higher success rate.
The importance of storing material data: Accelerate the nanostructured materials.
19 June 2023
At VSPARTICLE,we believe that generation of nanoparticles should be neither complex or nor time-consuming. By introducing a fully automated and reproducible production process of new nanostructured materials with the VSP-G1 Nanoparticle Generator and VSP-C1 Controller.
How to speed up your research and move from design hypothesis to characterization within days
19 January 2021
VSPARTICLE addresses the challenges by offering a fully automated nanomaterial fabrication process based purely on a physical process. Our approach is radically different from the state-of-the-art and it is based on a patented technology called Spark Ablation. The cornerstone of our technology is the VSP-G1- Nanoparticle Generator.
The Future of Heterogeneous Catalyst
2 September 2019
Heterogeneous catalysis is at the nucleus of modern energy and chemical industries, a process in which a gas- or liquid-phase reaction is performed over a solid catalyst. Evidenced by revenue that reaches the trillions of dollars per year.To reduce our footprint on the earth and enter a new era where advances in technology are used to achieve this, conventional techniques processes that are typically more than fifty years old should be carefully reviewed.
