Chemical Synthesis
Chemical Synthesis
- Air- and moisture-sensitive materials (production and packaging)
- Heavy metals & toxic material (handling and processing)
- Reactive and hazardous materials (packging and shipping)
- Materials at standard and custom particle sizes
CONTROLLED ATMOSPHERE HANDLING
CONTROLLED ATMOSPHERE HANDLING
Our expertise and equipment allow for the secure manufacture, handling and storage of substances sensitive to oxygen, water, temperature, and other environmental influences.
We have trained personnel and rigorous methodology in place to monitor the handling of environmentally sensitive and hazardous materials.
Custom Particle Sizing
Custom Particle Sizing
We have developed manufacturing, screening and measurement processes to control particle size distribution. We are fully equipped for custom processing, including consolidation, crushing, grinding/milling, blending and sieving.
Powder Atomization
Powder Atomization
Our proprietary powder atomization process allows us to customize powder metal products and produce consistent, high-quality materials. Capabilities include:
- Repeatable performance in soldering and brazing
- Tight particle size distribution and low gas inclusion
- Minimized void formation in sintering operations
- Lot sizes from 25 to 200 ounces
- Range of particle sizes
- Material compositions created to exact specifications
Reactive Gas Processing
Reactive Gas Processing
Our reactive gas processing allows us to access many inorganic compounds in high-purity form. We also produce compounds not accessible through wet or solid-state chemical reactions, including:
- Hydrides, nitrides, oxides
- Sublimation
- Anion-exchange
- Solid/gas phase reactions
Wet Chemical and High Temperature Synthesis
Wet-Chemical and High-Temperature Synthesis
Our expert chemists and engineers use wet-chemical and high-temperature synthesis to develop new materials and produce established ones to meet our customers’ needs.
WET CHEMISTRY: Precipitation reactions, bottom-up chemistry, neutralization, oxidation/reduction reactions, purification processes, doping agents
HIGH-TEMPERATURE SYNTHESIS: Binary & ternary compounds; heavy metal capabilities (Cd, As, Pb, Sb); sulfide, selenide & telluride compounds; borides, carbides, oxides & silicides; fluorides; calcinations; combustion synthesis
