Nano-Zeolites Introduced by Clariant

Clariant, a world-leading manufacturer of specialty chemicals, focuses its scientific efforts in nano-technology on the manufacture and applications of a variety of nano-porous zeolites with exceptional physical properties. The company has just launched its new website for nano-zeolites.

In close cooperation with renowned academic institutions, Clariant has developed a process to manufacture high-quality nano-zeolites in technical quantities. The new range of nano-scale alumosilicates named Lucidot® open up an entirely new range of possibilities in biochemical processes, including molecular sieves, ion exchangers, selective adsorbents and catalysis. For example, when used in combination with fluorescent dyes, Lucidot® can help to develop more powerful thin film solar panels and fluorescence concentrators, energetically optimized light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and even novel laser systems.

In addition to Lucidot® NZL 40, Clariant now also offers the brand-new Lucidot® DISC nano-zeolites. With their special morphology, the flat discs are of particular interest for the creation of oriented layers on suitable substrates, as well as for the docking to cell walls of living microorganisms.

Clariant will showcase its advances in nano-zeolites at the world's largest international nano-technology exhibition and conference, the Nanotech 2008, held from February 13-15, 2008, in Tokyo, Japan, and at the 20th German Zeolite Conference at Martin-Luther University in Halle-Wittenberg, Germany, from March 5-7, 2008.
