In the mid-1980s, Esprix discovered that innovative sub-micron particles were
being produced by various Japanese manufacturers. We recognized the unique
properties of these materials, and envisioned potential applications in a
number of industries. But as promising as these particles were, they posed a
formidable challenge -they were a few years ahead of their time. Today, "Nanotechnology" is becoming a household word. The Esprix nanoparticles are
marketed to several industries as Functional Spherical Microparticles.
The Microparticles consist of:
-
Polymethyl Methacrylate (PMMA)
- Cross-linked or non cross-linked
- Proprietary and functional surface treatments
-
Cross-linked polystyrene gel particles
-
Amorphous silica
-
Melamine and benzoguanamine cured resins
The unique technology has allowed Esprix to extensively investigate niche
opportunities in several industries including:
-
Coatings/Inks
-
Toners
-
Adhesives
-
Powder encapsulation
-
Personal care
-
LCD Electronic Display
The functionality of the Microparticles cover a wide range
including:
-
Anti-block
-
Slip aid
-
Texture
-
Optical effect
-
Matting agent
-
Electrostatic charge enhancement
-
Modifier (plastics, rubber, paints, inks, adhesives.)
The product line features a true mono-dispersed product that covers the
particle size desired for your application. The product is highly solvent
resistance with extended shelf life that is not found in competitive supply.
