[nanoPost] Nanoporous materials

Company USA

The company is commercializing high porosity/high surface area materials for a wide range of applications including adsorbtion, gas separation, advanced thermal insulation, low-K dielectrics, and optics.

The company's technical strengths are based on a strong focus on chemical processing of novel porous materials, an understanding of the relationships between the structure and properties of these types of materials, and from being directly involved with many customers on what their real needs are for advanced materials-based products.

The company has developed several product lines including the  family of porous silica interlevel and intermetal dielectrics thin films for use in advanced semiconductors, superinsulation vacuum insulation panels and inserts, and adsorption cooling systems. Other porous materials developed have been used for applications including adsorbents, catalyst supports, and thickener/viscosity control.
