Research & Development

We begin with your imagination and ideas. Mo-Sci engineers conduct the research and development to make your ideas work. Then we manufacture what you imagined. The possibilities are unlimited. If you need a special glass frit, glass microsphere, or just want to think about the possibilities, the material technologists at Mo-Sci are ready to be your R&D partners.

Glass Development Capabilities Experienced and dedicated R&D staff trained in glass technology, ceramics, material science, physics, chemistry, metallurgy, biological sciences and pharmacology. Develop glass compositions with properties engineered for your specific applications in fields including health care, automotive, semiconductor, military, aerospace, electronics, sporting goods, textiles and others.

Applications Engineering

• We can assist you in selecting the best glass for your particular application.
• Our customer service group offers extensive support to help you manage the challenges associated with new applications.
• We can recommend when a new product should be developed instead of just making use of available materials.
• We take the development process from the prototype stage to production, and can supply any quantity from a few grams to a ton or more of the glass you need.

• Manufacture of iron phosphate glasses for use in fiber reinforced polymers and concrete. Current study underway with DOE investigating numerous applications of these unique FeP glasses. See website at eere.energy.gov 18cps_16951_use_of_high_strength_high_alkaline_resistant_iron.pdf

Analytical Services

• A full complement of equipment for measuring glass properties and trained personnel are available to support research as well as daily production and customer requests.
• Property measurements include chemical composition, thermal expansion (to 1000°C), DTA, XRD, softening and liquidus temperatures, optical transmission, refractive index, particle size analysis, chemical durability, corrosion studies, SEM and more.
