Mesocoat intern success story
History
MesoCoat was spun out of advanced materials company Powdermet, Inc. in 2007 to be an independent firm. One of the core technologies acquired and licensed for MesoCoat's start-up phase was developed at the Department Of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
In 2009, Abakan, Inc. acquired a controlling interest in MesoCoat.
In 2011, MesoCoat signed a cooperation agreement with Petrobras to help verify the effectiveness of the CermaClad™ process and finance a Euclid plant.
Technology
MesoCoat synthesizes and assembles non-oxide ceramic matrix component nano particles into coating solutions. Its coatings provide wear and corrosion protection to metallic surfaces.
Operations
MesoCoat is led by CEO Andrew Sherman, a ceramic material scientist, corrosion industry veteran and finalist for the 2009 and 2012 Ernst & Young Entrepreneur Of The Year Awards.
Since 2007, MesoCoat has funded its primary research and development activities through government grants, third party licensing arrangements, and venture and equity financing.
Facilities
MesoCoat broke ground on its first commercial plant in Euclid, Ohio in 2011. The plant is forecast to begin production in early 2013.
