ParteQ introduces a new system for the generation of metal nanopowders

The arc system was developed in the laboratory of Prof. Einar Kruis at the University of Duisburg-Essen. It enables the synthesis of nanoscale metallic powders and was scaled up in the European project BUONAPART-E to production rates up into the gram-per-hour range. It is thereby better suited for the synthesis of larger powder quantities than the spark ablation method.
