Customer-Specific Coatings and Core-Shell Particles

Targeted Surface Functionalization

Are you looking for possibilities to produce powders that meet your specific requirements? Do you want to influence the surface structure and functionality of your particles?

Using APPtec®, a unique spray calcination technology, it is possible to generate, coat and subsequently calcinate particles at temperatures from 200 °C to > 1000 °C in one single process step, thus producing so-called core shell particles. The technique enables coat thickness, porosity, and activity to be individually defined. By coating carrier materials, such as Al2O3, ZrO2, TiO2, with a catalytic ingredient, highly active powder materials for an extremely wide range of catalytic materials are obtained. Additionally, it is also possible to coat silicates, ceramic base materials and others with oxide coatings generated from metal salt solutions and slurries. Due to the extremely homogenous reaction conditions and short retention times by applying APPtec®, the coatings are extremely homogeneous and the coat thickness can be tuned within a wide range, tailored to the specific application.

As a pioneer and specialist in fluid bed technologies, Glatt also offers coating processes on this basis enabling the functionalization of particles in order to specifically adjust their surface structure, optical attractiveness, odor, taste, solubility, hygroscopicity and release or flow behavior. Properties such as chemical, thermal and oxidation stability as well as mechanical strength can also be influenced. Multi-layer coatings ensure staggered functionalities.

Our solution for cost-efficient, functionalized, high-performance particles.

Company information

Glatt Ingenieurtechnik GmbH
Glatt Ingenieurtechnik GmbH
Glatt is specialized in intelligent particle design for the generation and functionalization of powders and granulates with defined, adjustable properties. The focus is on particles and powders for pigments, catalytic, ceramic or battery materials as well as for granules and pellets as additives for e.g. industrial salts, detergents and cleaning agents, fertilizers, pesticides, food, feed, dietary supplements and pharmaceuticals. Encapsulation of flavors, enzymes, vitamins, microorganisms, probiotics or fatty acids (PUFA) is just as possible as encapsulation of essential oils and other active, sensitive substances to be protected. With Glatt APPtec®, a unique technology for spray calcination, it is possible to generate, coat and then calcine particles in a pulsing hot gas stream in a single process step. As a pioneer in fluid bed and spouted bed technologies, Glatt masters these important processes for the formulation and optimization of particle properties through defined spray agglomeration, spray granulation, spray coating or (micro)encapsulation as well as through combinations of these processes. Also in the high temperature range. Glatt supports the product idea from the early phase of product formulation through process development to scale-up to production scale. Under the leadership of the Glatt Process & Plant Engineering teams, customized production plants for nutrition, fine chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and biotech applications are successfully planned and commissioned. Worldwide. Whether based on powder synthesis, fluid bed or spouted bed technology, Glatt also offers certified contract manufacturing for customers without their own production capacities.
