EnBIO Additional Information EnBIO is actively seeking partnerships to further develop the technologies and the application listed above for aerospace based applications.

EnBIO can enhance the properties of Titanium (and other metals) by treating the surface with dopants using novel surface modification technology (CoBlastTM). The technology has applications in the area of medical implants and in the aerospace area including : • Improving the Wear Resistance and Surface Hardness of Titanium and its alloys (Cobalt Chrome, Nitinol, Stainless Steels, etc.) • Applying a Thermal Barrier Coating to Titanium and its alloys with an adhesive layer to prevent delamination. This also increases the operating temperature. • Making the surface of Titanium perfectly black via the addition of black pigment directly into the surface (for black body applications)

Address Fota Point Business Park, Carrigtwohill, Co. Cork, Ireland Telephone Number +353 21 488 2655 Main Email Address [email protected] Company Website www.enbiomaterials.com

The CoBlast process is non-complex, at room temperature and requires no wet chemistry. The process is a novel variation of grit-blasting and the CoBlast processing equipment. It is a novel process for applying a range of dopant materials to the surface of titanium alloys which traditionally are very difficult to apply.

Title Daniel Worldwide LTD Gerard Gerard Daniel Worldwide manufactures and supplies specialist acoustic woven wire mesh for Nacelle structures and trust reversers of commercial aircraft. Noise emissions from jet engines must be suppressed in order that commercial aircraft comply with noise regulations currently imposed upon operators. By careful design it is possible to greatly reduce such emissions by lining the nose cowl with sound absorbing structures.

Address Mountmahon Industrial Estate, Abbeyfeale, Co. Limerick, Ireland Telephone Number +353 68 31284 Main Email Address [email protected] Company Website www.gerarddaniel.com

Early acoustic liners used for this purpose were based on the Helmholz resonator principle. However this type of liner is only satisfactory for attenuating specific sound frequencies.

Main Company Contact Michael Quigley Managing Director [email protected]

It is possible to increase the efficiency of acoustic liners by making them capable of attenuating over a broad range of frequencies. This has been achieved by bonding a porous woven wire mesh to the perforated facing skin. Such a structure is referred to as single layer linear acoustic liner. The range of attenuation frequencies can be further increased by producing a double layer linear acoustic liner with a second layer of woven wire mesh.

EnBIO Additional Information EnBIO is actively seeking partnerships to further develop the technologies and the application listed above for aerospace based applications.

EnBIO can enhance the properties of Titanium (and other metals) by treating the surface with dopants using novel surface modification technology (CoBlastTM). The technology has applications in the area of medical implants and in the aerospace area including : • Improving the Wear Resistance and Surface Hardness of Titanium and its alloys (Cobalt Chrome, Nitinol, Stainless Steels, etc.) • Applying a Thermal Barrier Coating to Titanium and its alloys with an adhesive layer to prevent delamination. This also increases the operating temperature. • Making the surface of Titanium perfectly black via the addition of black pigment directly into the surface (for black body applications)

Address Fota Point Business Park, Carrigtwohill, Co. Cork, Ireland Telephone Number +353 21 488 2655 Main Email Address [email protected] Company Website www.enbiomaterials.com

The CoBlast process is non-complex, at room temperature and requires no wet chemistry. The process is a novel variation of grit-blasting and the CoBlast processing equipment. It is a novel process for applying a range of dopant materials to the surface of titanium alloys which traditionally are very difficult to apply.
