Liquipel is a nanotechnology solutions provider that works with manufacturers and directly with the public to provide super-hydrophobic protection and corrosion resistance to a variety of products, including smartphones, ear buds and headphones, tablets and other mobile electronics. The company was established in 2009 as Gadget Evolutions by Kevin Bacon and Daniel “Danny” McPhail. It was launched as Liquipel at the 2012 International CES (Consumer Electronics Show) in Las Vegas, Nev. In 2013, the company was reformed as a limited liability corporation (LLC). The company is headquartered in Santa Ana, Calif., and has affiliated, licensed operations in Australia, Canada, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Saudi Arabia South Korea, Turkey and the United Arab Emirates. ==Technology== Devices are placed in a machine that creates a vacuum and then injects super-hydrophobic particles onto the outside and inside of the devices. Plasma then binds the formulation onto the devices’ surfaces and circuits, creating a microscopic gap of air between the object and liquid. The entire process, from start to finish, takes approximately 30 minutes. The technology can be applied to a variety of items made from a range of materials. Occurring at low pressure, the coating penetrates complex 3D objects, protecting them internally and externally in the single process. The company claims that because the coating is 1,000 times thinner than a human hair, it does not affect the look or feel of products, including the components of electronic devices or the breathability of lifestyle materials. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Liquipel」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
