P2i
P2i is the global leader in liquid repellent nano coating technology. We are a technology solutions provider focused on increasing the reliability of electronic devices by protecting them from liquid damage. Our revolutionary plasma process dramatically reduces the surface energy of a material, so when liquids come into contact with it, they form beads and simply roll off. This enables our customers to dramatically improve the performance of their products by protecting them from the effects of water and all other liquids, without affecting the look or feel of the device. P2i was established in 2004 to commercialize technologies developed by the UK Government’s Defence Science & Technology Laboratory (DSTL). Research and development have identified innovative applications, equipment and processing methods, culminating in a growing patent portfolio extending to over 64 families. Ongoing acquisitions have provided valuable new technologies such as antimicrobial, super hydrophilic and protein resistance coatings - making P2i the global leader in invisible surface functionality. In addition to headquarters in the United Kingdom, P2i has a technology centre in the United States, and an applications centre in China. P2i' provides a range of liquid protection solutions, protecting from splashes and spills right through to accidental submersion. P2i work directly with manufacturers, tailoring our patented nano coating to our customers’ needs. With commercial expertise and proven success in mass production, not just in electionics but across 4 other market sectors, P2i delivers outstanding performance improvement to a wide range of products.

Moorfield Nanotechnology
Moorfield — excellence in vacuum technology since 1989. Moorfield was created to provide services in vacuum technology primarily to the academic research market. While the initial service and retrofit side of the business is still important for ongoing customer communication and feedback, the company has now grown to supply products manufactured in-house. Our vacuum deposition range is aimed at pilot-scale industrial production and high-end educational institutions. System designs involve extensive modularity, leading to flexible solutions ideal for R&D environments where changing technical requirements are common. The range consists of starter platforms that can then be populated with numerous component sets for deposition of metals, inorganics and organics. Systems can be built as standalone units, or can be combined with gloveboxes when air sensitivity is an issue. Recently, Moorfield have directed R&D toward chemical vapour deposition (CVD) systems that allow for easy production of the ‘wonder materials’ graphene and carbon nanotubes (CNTs). These developments have attracted government funding and have been aided by consultation with expert academic researchers. The systems are capable of scalable, cost-efficient synthesis of high-quality material through the implementation of growth schemes deemed critical for future commercialisation of carbon nanomaterials. Moorfield formed the Clean Environments division in 1997 after failing to find a portable clean space in which to get sign-off for its deposition systems. The Clean Environments team have since developed a range of rapid-assembly, low cost, HEPA filtered products for creating portable and permanent cleanroom areas.
