 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

NANOPARTICLE, NANOPOWDER AND NANOSCALE ULTRA THIN FOIL RESEARCH SUPPORT DEPARTMENT ESTABLISHED WITHIN AMERICAN ELEMENTS’ NANOMETAL™ PRODUCT GROUP

[ March 26, 2007, Los Angeles, CA ] American Elements announced it has established a department within its Nanometal™ Product Group exclusively to support customer research and development efforts.

Due to the substantial number of customer research projects American Elements is currently supporting with technical data, proprietary material production and product commercialization consulting, it has elected to establish a department within the group devoted exclusively to research support functions. The new department will assist customers to understand the state of the art with respect to specific nano materials under investigation.

The goal of the department is to advance American Elements’ pledge to prevent customers from investigating known technological dead ends or customers “re-inventing the wheel” -- dedicating R&D funding to research previously investigated areas.

The department has also expanded its nanopowder and nanoparticles online product data sheets to include important recent research and development on the specific nano material. This new information can be accessed from: https://www.americanelements.com/nanomaterials-nanoparticles-nanotechnology.html
