U.K. Abrasives Boron Carbide AG (Abrasive) is a high performance abrasive material with chemical and physical properties similar to diamonds, such as, chemical resistance and hardness. Boron carbide’s extra hardness gives it the nickname “Black Diamond” (It ranks third after diamond and boron nitride) and is one of the leading grinding materials.

AZSA 37 208 is used in Pressure die-cast parts or gravity cast in metallic molds which requiere elevated resistance to traction and firmness. Die-cast parts can easily be painted, copper-plated, nickel-plated, chromium-plated, etc.

C-1 Cristobalite KRS is synthesized from high purity quartz using a solid state, high heat manufacturing process that yields a consistently high conversion and high purity cristobalite. No additives (mineralizers) are used in the manufacture of cristobalite products.

T123™ is a high purity nickel powder composed of discrete nickel particles having a spiky morphology. T123™ is produced by a unique carbonyl gas refining process at the Copper Cliff Nickel Refinery in Sudbury, Canada.
