The induction process is "Refractory Free" where the potential of inclusions from ceramic melt crucibles is eliminated

Plasma Spheroidization

Precursors of crushed, atomized, or recycled particles are transformed "In-Flight" through inert gas plasma   

Passing through plasma at 10,000K degrees particles form dense spheres with a reduction in many trace elements   

The process provides a narrow particle size distribution with high purity and superior flow properties   

Custom plasma reactors can also be designed, where temperatures cool from 10,000K to 1,000K in less than 80ms to form dense nano-sized ceramic or metal particles

Plasma processing technologies are suitable for a broad array of metals and ceramics with applications in advanced materials science and manufacturing
