Momentive Performance Materials Metal Coated Particles  (discontinued **)
Categories: Ceramic

Material Notes: Metal Coated Particles feature:

Uniform coverage

Thick or thin coatings

Shorter production cycles

Lower costs

Mass production capability

New Metal Coated Particle (MCP) Technology from GE Advanced Ceramics lets you cost-effectively increase product performance. In metal matrix composites (MMCs), for example, the use of MCP materials can improve mechanical properties by 30-100% or more. And in thermal spray applications, metal coatings on ceramics and other materials can improve capture efficiency and composite uniformity versus other methods. MCP products can be used for abradable seals, P/M parts, cutting tools, magnets, electrical contacts, and other components for consumer, automotive, aerospace, electronic, and electrical applications.

MCP technology is one of the few processes that can apply consistent, high-quality metal coatings to a wide range of particulate materials. Particles, for example, can range from less than 10 microns to more than 5 mm (depending on particle density and shape). Coatings can be as thick as 50% or more by volume or as thin as 0.5% by volume. Coverage of each particle is uniform and complete. And this new process can coat particles 10-20 times faster than other techniques, significantly lowering the cost of production.

Virtually any particle that can be wetted by and does not react with water and has a specific gravity greater than 1.0 is a candidate for coating. Coatings include: Cobalt, Copper, Nickel, Iron, Tin, Zinc, or combinations thereof. Materials coated include Alumina, Aluminum, Aromatic polyester, Boron nitride, Graphite (synthetic, natural flake, and whiskers), Iron, Molybdenum, Neodymium/iron/boron, Samarium Cobalt, Silicon carbide (grains and whiskers), Stainless steel, Titanium diboride, Tungsten, Tungsten carbide, and Zirconia.

Materials flagged as discontinued () are no longer part of the manufacturer’s standard product line according to our latest information. These materials may be available by special order, in distribution inventory, or reinstated as an active product. Data sheets from materials that are no longer available remain in MatWeb to assist users in finding replacement materials.

Users of our Advanced Search (registration required) may exclude discontinued materials from search results.

Some of the values displayed above may have been converted from their original units and/or rounded in order to display the information in a consistent format. Users requiring more precise data for scientific or engineering calculations can click on the property value to see the original value as well as raw conversions to equivalent units. We advise that you only use the original value or one of its raw conversions in your calculations to minimize rounding error.
