 Hi, welcome to Goodfellow. My name is Joe Alexo. I'm the global marketing manager and with us we have the CEO Steven Aldersley All right, and we hear the nanotech technology here in Tasala Nikki and hi. Hi. I'm hi Nicholas. I'm Steven Aldersley I'm the CEO of Goodfellow. Goodfellow is a company which supplies small to medium-sized quantities of pure metals alloys ceramics polymers we've been around for Gosh, we've been around since 1947 and we've been doing what we do for the last 70 years Just as an indication of the types of things that we do This is a periodic table which we published as part of our marketing to collect collateral and everything which you see here in grey I hope the camera can pick it out everything which you see here in grey are Materials which Goodfellow supplies in one form or another. There's more than half the period period table There's a big quantities of different things. Absolutely. Absolutely We sell a lot of a lot of a lot of materials a lot of materials and Where we're based in the UK, but we sell our products. We supply product globally and If I could introduce you now to Goodfellow's technical manager dr. Aphrodite Tomu She'll give you a broad overview of some of the products which Goodfellow is supply. All right. Hi Hello, so here the nanotech technology conference all this is relevant At the moment. Yes, you can use different type of products of this one as a substrate For example, you can use our copper foils to join us. Yeah. Yeah, so so So what is this example? So for example, these are foils that we have metal foils and you can use them as a substrate for example You can use our copper foils with this Without oxygen their oxygen free and you can use them as a substrate To what kind of yes to synthesize for example graphene Which is the nanotechnology one. So talking about graphene. I Would like you to show you this one. So this is an epoxy However, if the graphene is not functionalized, then you don't have a good dispersion However, if it's functionalized and you embedded the graphene in the epoxy Then the functionalization is helping for the dispersion and you have an amazing dispersion as you can see in the epoxy And this is useful for this is useful for different applications So graphene has to be embedded in different matrices. For example, this epoxy or polymer and you can use it as a filter you can use it For mechanical properties you can use it in different applications What are all these things you have here? All right So this is just a demonstration of how raw materials will look like so for example, indium will look like this I think it's indium. Yeah, it is indium. So in a raw form. It looks like this fall What is the one that I like the most is the bees move which is oxidizing and makes these colors as well however Indium bees move bees move or other products like platinum like this one as well We have them in different forms. This is just raw materials. So people can be Familiar with the materials and how they look like in a raw form Do you work with all the mines and stuff like that or where do you get all this stuff? Yes, these are mine to be honest, but we are getting our stuff from we have different partners So we're getting our stuff from different partners. For example, these are metal tubes and This is a ceramic tube. This is a polymer tube. We do polymer cubes. We do We do what disks as well metal disks. Oh, this is Speciality shape especially shape. Yes. It's called mesh. So it's a copper mess this one We do fasteners as well and here you can see the different metal forms, which are very interesting. This is a honeycomb shape and These are precision spheres a ceramic precision spheres as well the metal forms they are very They have the same properties With the material because this is aluminum and this is copper. So they have the same mechanical properties They are lighter so they can use for example in aerospace So you are in space. Yes, we do we do space stuff. Yes, we do we are You have customers in all kinds of yes, yes, we have customers in our space in electronic sectors mechanical engineering automotive I Would say electronic devices as well. I would say most of them in different So this is another form. This is an aluminum form, which has a different type and a different Structure with the previous one. So this is a regular aluminum form The cells are have the same size and shape all over the structure This is another ceramic form and then here you can see you you can see that we can identify and just define or Clarify the porosity so we can do different porosities in materials This is a ceramic alumina one and a high purity one. This is a pink alumina It does have a chromium oxide in it. So it can be pink These are also aluminum forms Different porosities and this is a cloudy to an aluminum form as well as you can see the but it's clouded with aluminum For different applications and all these things are mass produced or yes They are mass produced and if they are readily available if we know in they are in our catalog the next day to our customers So what I would like to introduce because we are discussing about and we are in nanotechnology. Is this exceptional shoulder? Which is one of a kind I would say and It can each one shoulder. You cannot see it is the shoulder this one So it can solve their Carbon components to different matrices for example copper. So you don't have to nickel plate the copper This is very nice and you can have the electrical conductivity Straight away to your copper plate. So it can be used in PCBs applications IT applications. You can also Solder graphite and what is the most important you can solder aluminum to aluminum until now? You couldn't solder aluminum to the minimum You were only using fluxes and fluxes are oxidizing the aluminum or silicon carbide for solar cells You can see They're used in solar cells again Silicone carbide here and you can solder with this which is called C solder. Is it difficult to use the solder? No, but this one has an exceptional type procedure so and there is also in our YouTube and you're the only ones who have done this so far Yes, and the material is for the solder the material is a Lead-free lead-free soldered tin base solder to be honest tin tin base shoulder. Nobody else does this No, well we our partners is this one this company and We are doing it together. So yes, nobody else does that is we are Distributors out for this. What is this exclusive distribution? These are wires. They can use these are wires metal wires and polymer here and They can use different applications depending on for what you want to use it from electronic devices or Engineering projects as well So what I would like to discuss to you because we are not Technologies, but we we don't have the materials here because they're powders, of course, but it's we have another green graphene It's not here. No. Well, it's carbon. So you have carbon. Yeah So we have a green graphene which is produced by a plasma reactor and it's the only green graphene in the market It's mass production for cause it doesn't have any catalysts and it can be used if it's green You can use you can understand it can be used. It's biocompatible and it doesn't have any toxicity So it can be used also in biomedical applications for drug delivery. It can be used because it has exceptional surface area It can be used I don't have any application the graphene is a wonder material So even for filter for desalination of water water desalination and everywhere So you do lots of stuff for the do lot of nano nanoparticles as well metal nanoparticles different metal nanoparticles like you can have Titanium nanoparticles or iron nanoparticles and they can be used again in different applications from biochemistry to electronic devices Or to coatings for a decorrosion resistance for corrosion resistance and these nanoparticles are green as well They are produced for a green method because sustainability. I would say that it's a key challenge in industries at the moment And green products are more Important nowadays, so we have like an awareness of environmental awareness and also we think that the we are providing the best materials for our customers to be honest and Except from the metal nanoparticles We also have the boron nitride nanotubes which is they are declaring to be the researchers are Declaring that this boron nitride nanotubes will be the fourth evolutionary material in industry and you do that and yes, we do that Yes, we have that boron nitride nanotubes So they are like the carbon nanotubes The mechanical properties, but this is an insulator while carbon nanotubes can be semiconductors or metallic So you combine them with carbon nanotubes, but you can combine them if you want, but you can use them alone because of the boron Absorbance for example the neutron absorbance because it has boron they can be used in aerospace or in nuclear sectors So we have different materials for different applications So how does it work the the business model the people just buy by by the gram by the kilo We do not have we do not have any I will say limitations in quality in quantity, sorry and all imitations in quantity and If we have already have them in stock then the customer will have it the next day and Then do you implement the things in the final product? So you just provide the material people provide their own material and people do whatever they want and this some more information about here What do you see here? So we are 70 years company 1946 in London and until now we have different divisions like we have the class division and ceramic division and we have also An office in Shanghai we have an office in France Our headquarters of course are in Cambridge and we have also an office in in Germany And we have over 70,000 products these 70,000 products are readily available and they are in our couple Customers are more than 60,000 and we also do Custom-made products for the customers and these are the different categories. Yes, so yes We can do alloys metals ceramics polymers compounds and We also have scientists and engineers in house like my team We have a technical team which is more available in case adjust material so it can solve problems to your application We are suggesting the materials that is more suitable and more applicable in your application and we are More than welcome if you would like to send us an email with your Research project, what would you like to have and achieve and we may suggest you a nice material for your applications too And you can send it to technical Do you work with many like startups? We work with startups. We work with R&D. We work with national labs We work with industry automotive as I said aerospace. We work with all kind of Industries that they have research groups to be honest and they do research Do you work with gold too? Of course we work with gold And years Yes, the key industry sectors is physics, chemistry, manufacturing, electronics, aerospace and of course material sciences We do custom manufacturing products as we said like precision machine forming coating We do have larger quantity. These are the forms that we have for our products or different forms different shapes and Sizes in there for nano materials. I mean you have big machines that enable you to Do all these things. Yes our headquarters and we have a lab we have I don't know how to say it. I don't know, I don't like the system. But we have Machining department as well and we have a production department as well of course and we do different types of materials and forms depending on customer specifications
