Altairnano’s Unique “Growth in Thin Film” Strategy

  
The Altairnano Process Offers Reproducibility & Control of:

• Crystal size
• Crystal shape
• Crystal phase
• Morphology
• Chemical, physical, electrical and optical properties of the product

  
This leads to our ability to develop a wide range
of advanced materials including:

• Catalyst structures
• Photocatalytic products
• Surface modified products
• Advanced battery nano-materials
• Advanced specialty ceramic compounds such as barium titanate
• Improved titanium dioxide pigments
• Mixed metal and metal oxide fine powders
• Specialty flame retardants and heat stabilizers
• Plasma coating materials

The Altairnano Process is capable of producing a wide range of mixed metal and ceramic oxides that have unique physical and chemical characteristics.

The sequence of Zinc Oxide crystal SEM images to the right demonstrates Altairnano’s unique crystal growth capabilities. Each sample imaged below was determined to be ZnO via XRD however, shapes and sizes are controlled using the Altairnano Process.
