Recognizing that new users of nanomaterials will experience learning curve difficulties relating to handling and formulating nanoparticles, we offer a "solutions" approach to customers. If nanoparticles are not dispersed properly in solution, many of their beneficial properties targeted for the product can be lost. Air Products' Performance Material group has more than 40 years experience in developing chemistries and processes to stabilize the most intricate dispersions. We have applied that knowledge into patented technology to create stable nanoparticle dispersions in aqueous, solvent-borne and 100% solids systems. To assure optimum performance, only the highest quality nanoparticles are used . . . particles that disperse uniformly and are consistently sized. By supplying ready-to-use nanoparticle dispersions, we eliminate the need for customers to disperse the particles themselves, and the hassles of handling dry powders.

Air Products offers a series of standard nanoparticle dispersions specifically tailored for the development of transparent, colorless coatings with antistatic, conductive, fade-resistant and heat-blocking properties. Custom dispersions are also available. Our application engineers look forward to the opportunity to discuss your unique application. They will help determine the right particles and the best dispersing system to add-in needed properties to your system.

American Elements is the world leader in nanopowder, nano particle, submicron, - 325 mesh, shot and high surface area metal and powder with particle distribution and particle size controlled and certified. We produce larger 40 mesh, Ц– 100 mesh, -200 mesh range sizes and < 0.5 mm, 2 mm, 5 mm and other mm size shot, granules, lump, flake and pieces, too. Our technical teams are experts in not just the chemical properties of advanced materials, but also their physical properties.

American Elements is capable of producing most compounds in the submicron and nanopowder rangeand metallic powders in sizes as low as 325 mesh. Surface areas as high as 140 m2/g have been achieved. Certain catalytic metallic powders, such as platinum, can be produced in the submicron range. If you are working with a material that is not in our catalog, but you require it in the submicron range, we can probably produce it.

American Elements can Ц“grow larger then typical particle sizes for materials to, for example, create particle distributions in the 20 to 70 micron range for materials that are naturally produced in the 2 to 8 micron range. This allows for their use in plasma spray guns and in other deposition technologies that can be blocked by particles that are either too small or too large for the delivery system.

American Elements can also achieve very high surface area ranges up to 130 square meters per gram for catalytic, electronic and pharmaceutical requirements and produce both wide and narrow particle distributions.

American Elements physical morphology capabilities include attrition, ball and jet milling, particle growth through calcination and co-precipitation and screening classification. Analysis and certification include particle distribution by laser diffraction, BET surface area analysis, phase analysis by X-ray diffraction and SEM.

AP Materials is an early stage advanced materials company that develops and produces a new class of materials, called nanopowders, in a patent-protected process. The Company produces nano-powders with the potential of superior purity and structure and significantly less oxide than other powders at a lower cost of production. This unique, demonstrated technology is of great potential interest to a wide range of markets. Over the past four years the Company has been developing its technology to demonstrate the feasibility of commercial production of numerous ceramic and metal nano-powders on the basis of the broad capability of their process technology.

Currently APM is in the final development of it first planned commercially available nano-powderTantalum (Ta), which is sold to the manufacturers of capacitors (market size ~$300,000,000). The most recent Tantalum nano-powders produced in APMЧ’s reactors are equal to or exceed the highest quality powders being produced by conventional means. Over the next year, while APM continues to improve the quality of its powders it intends to ship sample quantities to potential customers. The Company expects to ramp up to full production by the end of 2003.

Silica sol belongs to colloid.
Colloidal Silica is getting a lot of attention as a new material that can be applied in various ways because of its cohesive and adhesive properties.

CHEIF CHARECTERISTICS

* Odorless, tasteless, and non-toxic. chemical formula: mSiO2.nH2O
* Since the particles are colloidal in nature, they are colourless and transparent and do not effect the natural colour of the materials to be covered.
* With low viscosity, it can soak the places where water soaks, therefore, it presents excellent dispersion and permeability when being mixed with other substances.
* When the moisture contained in silica sol is evaporated, the colloid grains firmly adhere to the material surface and the combination of silicon and oxygen is then formed between grains. It is a good adhesive.
* Colloidal silica is available in the various grades depending on the concentration of silica, the average particle size and surface area.

USES

Colloidal silica finds uses in various sectors.

* steel and foundry ( investment castings, binder formulations)
* refractory ( vacuum formed fibres from ceramics, binders
for ceramic and refractory materials)
* dental ( manufacturing of dentifrices)
* chemical industry ( production of catalysts and granules,
modification of silicates)
* coating systems ( adhesion reinforcement, anti-blocking agents
in paints)
* textiles ( for anti-slip treatment of fibers, as an additive
for spinning oil)
