We report on our use of a thin-layered vertical mesoporous silica thin film (MSTF) with
tunable pore size overlaid on an anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) membrane for advancing …

Membranes consisting of uniform and vertically organized mesopores are promising
systems for molecular filtration because of the possibility to combine high-flux and high …

This critical review reports on the up-to-date development designs of mesofilters for
molecular sieving of macromolecules. Tight mesoporous silica nanotubes (NTs) provide a …

A mesoporous membrane composed of nanochannels with a uniform diameter has a
potential use for precise size-exclusive separation of molecules. Here, we report a novel …

Recently, a hybrid mesoporous membrane composed of surfactant-templated mesoporous
silica inside a porous anodic alumina membrane has been developed. Since this membrane …
