Nanomaterials Company is the Philadelphia metropolitan area's first
nanotechnology company. We are a contract manufacturing and process
research and development company servicing the defense, aerospace,
automotive, textiles, nutritional supplement, electronics and specialty
chemical industries. Nanomaterials is located in Malvern, a suburb of
Philadelphia, and derives many ancillary services from the rich
resources located there. We are dedicated to the development of
nanomaterials, nanomaterials processing and applications, and associated
enabling technologies. Nanomaterials derived its process technology
from key technical achievements at
Los Alamos National Laboratory and
has continuously expanded its technology base since then Our business
is devoted to the exploitation of size-dependent materials properties
exhibited when its architecture is on the nanometer scale and to the
design and manufacture of proprietary enabling processing equipment.
We are presently developing relationships with industry to facilitate
our emerging commercial aspirations which include:
A)
Supply major chemical manufacturers and distributors with complex
nanopowders and nanostructured materials for resale under their label
B)
To
supply process tools to manufacturers interested in producing specific
nanopowder products
C)
Research and product development services to the industry and government,
and
D)
Licensing proprietary processing technology to organizations interested in
supplying the exploding nanotechnology market with nanopowders.
Our mission is to enhance the performance of your products and the processes
to produce them.
The
Nanomaterials Company occupies a 5000 square foot facility in an industrial
park convenient to major highways and mass transportation. Our expertise is
focused on the production of free, unagglomerated, monodisperse, nanopowders
having complex composition, and clean (naked) surfaces. We define
nanoparticles as free particles having an average diameter well below 100 nm
and typically in the 1 – 30 nm range with narrow particle size distribution.
Our legacy has been the production of difficult materials with exacting
specifications that are not otherwise commercially available. 100% of all
manufacturing is done in the US.
Central to
the Nanomaterials technology base is our proprietary GEN 1.5 particle
production tools capable of the continuous production oxide and non-oxide
nanopowders with a wide range in composition. The design capacity of the
tool is 1 kg per hour. This tool has been used to produce many complex
nanopowders (please see "Nanopowders"). Also
at our facility is a full complement of other ancillary materials processing
equipment to affect precursor production, and support process development.
We also possess materials characterization tools to ensure the products we
produce meet or exceed your specifications. We operate according to written
operating procedures that along with reactor configuration and other
specific details, become part of the permanent records associated with your
lot number. During production all reactor operating parameters are recorded
at 5 second intervals. The system can "playback" an entire run for
diagnostic or replication purposes.
Within the
local vicinity of the Nanomaterials Company, are university user facilities
and independent testing laboratories that include modern analytical and
materials characterization instruments. These facilities augment the
characterization services we provide to our customers in the event more
detailed analyses are required.
We
specialize in the production of nanomaterials having complex
composition and exacting particle size and particle size distribution
and tailored surface characteristics. Additionally we also provide
customers with materials processing solutions and equipment to meet the
needs of the emerging nanomaterials and ultra high purity market.
Since the beginning of our commercial development enterprise we continue to
explore new ways to produce better materials and better processes to achieve
higher manufacturing capabilities.
Nanomaterials customers include industries seeking to improve their
products or increase margins by lowering manufacture costs and the US
government seeking new ideas for the development of tools which will provide
them with strategic advantages.
The Nanomaterials Company specializes in the development of new
materials and new processing techniques for their manufacture. The
Nanomaterials company employs a diverse array of materials synthesis
techniques to develop and manufacture advanced materials with exacting
specifications and extreme performance.
Where does
Nanomaterials fit into the “Nanotechnology” picture.
Signa-Aldrich Chemical Company has
kindly provided us with a graphic from their nanomaterials catalog featuring
products for materials science which represents one of several possible
nanotechnology organization chart. We believe their efforts represent a fair
and balanced picture of the field today We have superimposed our logo onto
the regions where Nanomaterials is pursuing commercial endeavors.
