By EVOQ
Structure is controlled during formation. That is what makes the EVOQ platform different. The manufacturing breakthrough: EVOQ uses a patented high-energy laser-ablation platform to form spherical metamaterials directly from source material. By controlling structure during formation, EVOQ avoids the reducing agents, surfactants, capping agents, and post-synthetic correction associated with many wet-chemistry processes. Energy replaces chemical synthesis: The EVOQ process uses high-energy laser ablation in water to form material directly from a solid source. There are no chemical reducing agents, surfactants, or added capping agents in the synthesis route. By establishing structure during formation, the process is designed to produce spherical material with very narrow size distribution and a clean, functional surface. Designed for continuous production. The EVOQ platform is designed around controlling the properties that begin at formation: shape, size distribution, surface condition, and batch-to-batch consistency. This gives collaborators a well-defined material starting point when they are evaluating a formulation, coating, polymer system, device concept, or research protocol.
