TECHNOLOGY LICENSING OPPORTUNITY: FortiCoat Steel

Los Alamos National Laboratory, creates a metal surface that is optimized for coating and then adds a smooth, durable barrier designed to resist corrosion, wear, salt water, acids, radiation and surface damage, making it attractive for operators seeking stronger performance with less maintenance ov

er time. How it Works FortiCoat Steel uses a two-step treatment process for steel and other metals. First, a highly oxidizing ion, such as Ce(IV), Ag(II) or Co(III), etches the metal surface. The ion is continuously regenerated in an electr
