Technology Serving The World






IRON OXIDE
Iron Oxide is manufactured using patented Physical Vapor Synthesis process. In this process, iron metal is vaporized. This vapor is rapidly cooled in the presence of oxygen, causing nucleation and condensation of crystalline iron oxide particles. The particles are non-porous and their surfaces are free of residual chemical contaminants. During the process, the particles form weak agglomerates up to tens of microns in size. These agglomerates can be reduced with suitable dispersion techniques, providing a typical particle size distribution ranging from a few nanometers to a few hundred nanometers.

KIA scientists are knowledgeable and experienced in the application of crystalline powders and dispersions in a wide variety of fields. They are available to work in close cooperation with customers to optimize the performance of KIA products in commercial applications. KIA welcomes inquiries regarding new nanocrystalline compositions, as well as customized surface areas, particles size distributions, overall purity levels, specific impurity limits, surface treatments/coatings, and dispersions.
