Nanoparticles from the laser mill - Particular GmbH produces universal nanoparticles

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) November 25, 2010 -- The German nanotech start-up Particular GmbH crushes material down to the nano-scale using a laser ablation process. A “universal“ nanoparticle catalogue was published in November 2010: for the first time, a nanotechnology company offers any solid matter in the form of dispersed nanoparticles.

Customers can send their own materials (simple metals, ceramics, alloys) as foils, blocks or powders. Particular crushes these down to nanoparticles using laser pulses as a “laser mill “. Safely dispersed in a liquid, the product is shipped back to the customer. In addition, the introductory catalogue contains list prices of important metals for nanotechnology applications (e.g. gold, platinum) which can be ordered directly.

Nanoparticles have been applied for a long time to make products more viscous, antibacterial, conductible or scratch-resistant – generally: more effective in various ways. Now, Particular's universal method makes it much easier to take advantage of nanotechnology, especially in high-tech fields.

According to Niko Bärsch, CEO of Particular, the company produces highly pure particles that have an average size around 50 nm and concentrations of up to 1 g/l that meet the high requirements of applications in medicine, biotechnology or energy conversion. Particular can also provide smaller nanoparticles: according to the catalogue, 10 nm silver is available at a calculative price of 1.70 EUR per milliliter.

The new nanoparticle catalogue is available on this web page:
