Filament Extension Atomizer
Next-Generation Spray Technology for Difficult to Spray Materials
PARC has developed the Filament Extension Atomizer (FEA) to address problems arising from difficult to spray materials. This technology is capable of spraying materials previously either difficult or impossible to spray for a wide range of applications including spray coating, particle creation, spray drying, drug delivery, or powder coatings. It is also capable of spraying a wide range of extensionally hardening and high viscosity fluids with tight particle size distributions, tunable droplet sizes, and at a large range of scales depending on the application.
Additional information
Our work is centered around a series of Focus Areas that we believe are the future of science and technology.
We’re continually developing new technologies, many of which are available for Commercialization.
PARC scientists and staffers are active members and contributors to the science and technology communities.
