Permanently infuse a wide range of organic precursors. Choose the correct precursor to either alter or retain key properties of the polymer. Infuse various polymer forms including resins, films, sheets, fibers, and other configurations. Common solubility of precursor and polymer in solvent or supercritical fluid is not necessary. Resin morphology and processing properties not affected.
Process utilizes commercially available equipment.
ITI's infusion technology is used to fabricate a variety of polymer composites with unique mechanical, optical, electrical, and chemical properties. In addition, this technology can be combined with ITI's polymer surface treatment system to create original materials for use in such fields as coatings, catalysis, filtration and semiconductor processing. ITI's infusion process is unique in that we do not blend materials into a polymer melt. Neither do we utilize high pressures, temperatures, or chemicals to force additives into a polymer. Instead, ITI infuses volatilized precursors under vacuum directly into polymeric materials.
