Powders and Pastes
METALOR supplies a comprehensive range of leading edge materials to meet the demanding requirements of the automotive, electrical and electronic industries. These products are manufactured in Europe and USA.
Technology Leadership
Silver, silver/palladium, gold, and platinum metal powders are produced in various particle sizes, surface areas and morphologies using chemical, electrochemical, or mechanical means. These powders are of high purity and can be further characterised as fine, dense, spherical and de-agglomerated. METALOR extends this powder expertise to the fabrication of silver flakes which are manufactured using low cost mechanical milling techniques. The excellence of the range of flakes is widely acknowledged by formulators of conductive adhesives, inks and pastes that serve a variety of electronic applications.
Electrically and thermally conductive adhesives for microelectronic applications
Working in partnership with the valued customers, METALOR has carried out extensive development programmes to customise various silver flakes and powders to suit many electronic applications. METALOR are acknowledged as the world's leading supplier of precious metal flakes and powders to the semiconductor die attach industry.
Multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs), multilayer varistors (MLVs), multilayer actuators (MLAs)
METALOR supplies silver, platinum and various silver/ palladium ratio powders and pastes for internal electrode and termination purposes. The CP powders are widely used with numerous types of dielectrics, solvents and binder materials used within this industry.
Photovoltaics
Based on METALOR powder and flake technology, METALOR have developed front and rear side metallisation paste systems for the manufacture of solar cells. Working with leading manufacturers and PV institutes, METALOR also participate in international development programmes for innovative and environmentally compatible systems.
Shielding
Formulators of sprayable inks, formable gaskets and other shielding materials specify METALOR brand silver powders and flakes. These products have been specifically developed for use in high specification shielding applications.
Pure metal powders
METALOR offers a range of pure platinum, palladium and gold powders of various morphologies to meet the demands of today's markets. These products are used in a variety of applications including fuel cells, gas sensors, electrochemical sensors and biosensors.
