Silfeed was born from the pioneering research of **John Jiang** at the University of California San Diego (UCSD). Working within the Colloid & Interface Science Lab, the project focused on solving a critical stability crisis in precision agriculture: **pore collapse in high-heat industrial processing.**
Early research at UCSD confirms the feasibility of molecular-level hydrophobic modification on mesoporous silica. Contact angle threshold of 110° is achieved for the first time in a lab environment.
John Jiang returns to China to establish the Sensil production hub in Sanming, Fujian. Focus shifts to solving the stability of large-scale chemical synthesis while maintaining lab-grade precision.
Official launch of the HC-Series. Silfeed becomes a preferred supplier for global leaders like Jefo Nutrition, achieving an 88% recovery rate for heat-sensitive bio-actives.
Introduction of HC-Bio with 105°C thermal stability. Development of intelligent release carriers for target-specific gut delivery begins at the San Diego R&D center.
At the heart of UC San Diego, our student-led initiatives bring molecular theory into the spotlight. From the steps of Geisel Library to the specialized labs of the Chemical Engineering department, Silfeed fosters a culture of innovation where academic brilliance meets industrial purpose.
Silfeed's Sanming facility is more than a production site—it is a **Collaborative Research Base**. Through a unique international internship program, senior **Chemical Engineering students from UCSD** travel to Fujian to engage in "Industrial Deep Learning."
These students study the real-world complexities of mesoporous silica synthesis at scale. By bridging the gap between theoretical colloid science in California and industrial-scale manufacturing in Fujian, they bring invaluable field data back to the lab, ensuring every Silfeed product is optimized for the rigors of global feed processing.
