We offer powders made via the Plasma Rotating Electrode Process (PREP®) from almost any metal or alloy, including titanium, cobalt alloys, superalloys, and rare earth metals. Our high-purity powders,  produced via PREP® in a clean room environment, possess several unique features that make them ideally suited for high-performance applications.

Key Features

  • High purity, ultra-clean powders
  • Consistent particle morphology with marked absence of internal porosity and nonmetallic inclusions
  • Highly spherical particles with no  attached satellites, yielding excellent flow characteristics and consistent packing properties
  • Highly controlled, narrow particle size distributions, with tunable median size ranging from 1000 to 45 microns (18 to 325 mesh)

Applications  
Medical
Our
F-75 cobalt alloy and titanium powders are used in orthopedic prosthetic devices to create a porous surface into which bone tissue can grow.
Aerospace
Our titanium and superalloy powders are key ingredients for laser welding and plasma spray repair.
Turbine Components
Our bearing steel powders are essential to components that have optimum resistance to wear, galling, corrosion and oxidation under high  temperature conditions.
Cryogenics
Our rare earth powders such as neodymium, gadolinium, erbium, and dysprosium are essential for magnetic refrigerator systems.
