Nanophase Technologies: Nanomaterials and Nanotechnology Leader An Interview with Joseph Cross, President and CEO of Nanophase Technologies Corporation, March 2006 BASF Launches Z-Cote MAX Next-generation zinc oxide provides maximum UV protection, formulation flexibility FLORHAM PARK, ... Welcome to Nanophase Technologies (NASDAQ: NANX) Nanomaterials Innovation Nanophase Technologies is an industry-leading nanocrystalline materials innovator and manufacturer with an integrated family of nanomaterial technologies. The entire focus of Nanophase is nanotechnology, with two distinct and patented processes for the preparation and commercial manufacturing of nanopowder metal oxides i.e. Aluminum Oxide, Zinc Oxide, Cerium Oxide, Titanium Dioxide, and several others. Nanophase Technologies Corporation has developed a process, Discrete Particle Encapsulation, to coat the surface of its nanoparticles with a thin polymeric shell that enables compatibility of the particles with a wide variety of fluids, resins and polymers. Also, Nanophase has developed technology to permit the dispersion of its nanoparticles in water and a variety of polar and non-polar organic fluids. This allows Nanophase to supply concentrated, ready-to-use nanoparticle dispersions, eliminating the need for customers to disperse the nanoparticles themselves. Nanophase?s family of integrated technologies economically produces nanocrystalline materials, and then nanoengineers those materials to fit a customer need. An enhanced capability of Nanophase is our ability to process complex multi-component materials. This process has demonstrated the ability to produce homogeneous mixed metal oxide nanopowders where the component materials form solid solutions with well-defined single crystalline phases. Nanocrystalline metal oxides having up to four metallic elements have been successfully produced. Nanophase has the capability to produce a wide variety of single-phase pure and mixed rare earth oxides, as well as pure and mixed transition metal oxides and main g
