 Advantages of Metal-Coated Particles

The MCP processes are able to apply consistent, high-quality metal coatings to a wide range of particulate materials. MCP particles can range from less than 10 microns to more than 5 mm in size, depending on particle density and shape. The coatings can be as thick as 80 percent or more by volume, or as thin as 0.5 percent by volume. Coverage of each particle is uniform and complete.

These metal-coated particles have:

  • Uniform coverage
  • Thick or thin coatings
  • Short production cycles
  • Low cost
  • Ability to be mass produced
Advantages of MCPs
  • Wide range of substrate materials and particle sizes.
  • Improved particle distribution.
  • Enhanced mechanical properties.
  • Uniform particle coverage, which improves consolidation.
  • Superior bonding and ductility.
  • MCP products yield reliable, high-quality components, and uniformity with near-zero scrap rates.
  • Created through an environmentally friendly process.
  • Coatings can be engineered down to the micron level.
  • Act as excellent thermal spray materials with improved capture efficiency, bonding strength, uniformity, and accurate and controllable composition.
  • Superior metal coating control and excellent coating uniformity.
  • Ability to coat low-melting point substrate materials (e.g. polymers).
These coated particles are:
  • Proven in the marketplace to increase performance.
  • Produced through a simple and automated process.
  • Simple to use.
  • Produced through an environmentally friendly process.
  • Inexpensive and reusable.
 
Did you know?
Our MCPs behave more like pure metal powder than many existing metal powder consolidation processes, and they can be used to fabricate new forms and types of high-quality MMCs that exhibit superior properties and cost structures.
