Lorad offers a unique combination of seamlessly integrated specialty materials manufacturing and product development expertise. We can manufacture materials to enable your research or drive your manufacturing opportunities. Our aim is to translate our success in materials manufacturing to successful and profitable business opportunities for our customers.
Lorad scientists are actively engaged in developing new processes and materials where nano-powders are required. This includes proprietary developments in precipitation routes, and new developments in flame assisted synthesis technology and materials. Some of the products under development include nano-powders for phosphors, ceramic materials applications, battery and fuel cell cathode materials.
The customer receives the precise product required, on time, and with a certificate of analysis. Behind the scenes, scientists, technicians, sales and administrative staff have worked in close collaboration to ensure the only acceptable result; a satisfied customer. Ultimately, quality is not what we say it is, it is what the customer says it is.
Lorads products are used by manufacturing businesses, universities and governmental research laboratories in many countries around the world. As the global demand for our products grow, we continue to adapt our operating systems to make it easier for our product partners to work with us to achieve their objectives in a cost-effective and timely manner.

Lorad scales up Silicon Dioxide Granules Manufacturing

As a result of increased demand, Lorad can now announce a scale-up in its manufacturing operation for its premium grade high purity optical coating silicon dioxide granules.

 

Silicon dioxide is an important thin-film optical coating material.  It is a low refractive index material. It is hard, and chemically and environmentally durable.

 

It finds widespread application as the low index coating when used in combination with a high index coating in the near UV to IR wavelength range.  Common applications include AR coatings, beam splitters, band-pass filters etc.
