Steward Advanced Materials’ 316L stainless steel is specifically designed for corrosion resistant coatings to provide superior protection for metal surfaces. Applications include, but are not limited to, architectural, automotive, food processing, and other industrial coatings. FEATURES Can be supplied as a dry powder to allow users to formulate with No to low VOC’s Can be supplied pre-wetted using compatible solvent to coating formulations Particle size can be altered to make the flakes larger or smaller to adjust color EXAMPLES PHYSICAL PROPERTIES Characteristic Unit Typical Value MV d10 d50 d90 Microns 17.80 4.5 14.0 37.0 Moisture % 0.14 Tap Density g/cc 0.78 True Density g/cc 7.45
Our stainless steel flakes are manufactured from 316L and 434L. However, many other compositions can be produced if required. Stainless steel flakes are finely divided with a uniform particle size that can be adjusted to customer specifications. These flakes are recommended for use in water and solvent based paint or coating systems.

Our staff has extensive knowledge in processing various ceramic materials for demanding applications such as energy storage, catalysts, adsorbents, filters, and specialty additives. Customers come to us for high value differentiated materials that require a disciplined approach to development, leading to tight process and quality control.
CATEGORY
We are a premier manufacturer of highly-engineered metallic and ceramic powders, with a focus on low and high-frequency electromagnetic absorption, corrosion resistance, thermal stability, and weight reduction. Our processing techniques include non-aqueous, aqueous, and dry processing methods. This allows us to manufacture complex or simple chemistries.
CATEGORY
We offer a broad range of electromagnetic materials, such as metal alloys and ferrites that are utilized into coatings and other elastomers and resin systems for EMI, RF and microwave absorption. Lightweight materials are available with aspect ratio for weight reduction, as well as spherical particles with tailored particle distributions to optimize loading concentrations and maximize performance. We have the capability to create platelet shaped particles from magnetic alloys. If required, we can enhance corrosion resistance and dielectric properties through proprietary treatment processes. Magnetic materials for high-temperature applications are also available, upon request. Custom materials can be developed to support your unique applications and requirements. Applications include (but are not limited to): Coatings to attenuate and absorb energy; Loaded into elastomers, thermoplastics and other polymer resin systems for extrusion or thermo-moldable parts and components; Thin flexible EMI tape for shielding and absorption; Microwave quick-cure or heat susceptors; Automotive ignition cable for RF absorption; Thermoplastic welding; Magnetic tagging
