Advanced Sorbents
PSI delivers comprehensive sorbent development and manufacturing capabilities, ranging from selective material design to industrial-scale production.
We have engineered high-performance sorbents for clients in the defense, energy, and aerospace industries to address challenges such as atmospheric water harvesting, chemical warfare agent mitigation, and gas separation (such as CO2 and CO). Our capabilities include the design of economical, rapid production processes for specific material systems, notably Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs), mesoporous silicas, and inorganic adsorbents. Beyond synthesis, PSI provides value-added shape engineering, transforming raw powders into functional forms tailored to the rigorous demands of the final application.
Capabilities:
- Shape engineering
- Sorbent development
- Production and scale-up
- Process intensification

Smart Sorbents for Chemical Warfare Agent Capture
PSI’s Smart sorbent technology is composed of high surface area mesoporous silica particles with integrated capture and clutter rejection chemistry that enables chemical sampling and storage by improving efficiency and capability by shifting functionality from macroscopic sampler system to the chemical interactions between sorbent and sorbate. PSI developed two prototypes that have better selectivity and clutter rejection performance than those of the state-of-the-art sorbents. This technology enables multiple applications including passive sampling/monitoring (e.g., badge, UAV-system) and capture/kill decontamination.
