Thermally Engineered Structures & Metal Matrix Composites

  • Tailor thermal conductivity of materials over 1-2 orders of magnitude.

  • Control or reduce coefficient of thermal expansion. Alloys include IN909, IN783, IN625, Hastelloy-N, 17-4PH, 316SS, Nb CB752, Ti6242, MA956/FeCrAl.

  • Refractory metals and superalloy production

Custom Metallurgy

  • High thermal conductivity, low density, chemically inert fillers, similar to graphene but electrically insulating that possess 800W/m-K thermal conductivity.

  • BaTiO3 (Barium Titanate)/Doped BaTiO3 with giant permeability.

  • Copper Titanate (CCTO).

  • Giant permeability materials such as SiO2 (Silicon Dioxide) and Al2O3 (Aluminum Oxide) coated BaTiO3, CCTO.

  • Si, Si-coated graphene, Si-coated high surface area carbon (anodes).

Engineered Coating Systems

Products:

  • Ti and TiN (Titanium Nitride) powders.

  • Nickel and cobalt coated powders such as WC (Tungsten Carbide), B4C (Boron Carbide), TiN (Titanium Nitride), SiC (Silicon Carbide), BN (Boron Nitride), hBN (Hexagonal Boron Nitride).

  • Insulator, Cobalt, and nickel coated particles.

  • Bi2O3 (Bismuth (III) Oxide).
  • SiC (Silicon Carbide), ZrC (Zirconium Carbide), TiN (Titanum Nitride), TiC (Titanium Carbide), SiO2 (Silicon Dioxide), W (Tungsten), WC (Tungsten Carbide)-coated particles. Other coatings by request.

Processes:

  • Fluidized bed reactors. Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) and rotary bed reactors for coating with W (Tungsten), Al (Aluminum), Co (Cobalt), TiN (Titanium Nitride), SiC (Silicon Carbide), Borides, nitrides, and oxides.
  • Toll temperature programmed oxidation, reduction, carburization, and nitridation of powders.

    • Toll spray drying of metal and ceramic powders
    • Toll mechanical alloying
    • Particle dispersion and non-linear surfactant technology for micron-scale dispersions (oil in water, water in oil).

Materials for Energy Storage

  • High-temperature capacitor films and capacitors such as 350°C capacitors films with high-dielectric constant, and castable, high-dielectric constant films.
  • High-temperature, thermally conductivity insulators such as hermetic, high thermal conductivity insulation coatings and materials.
