Spherix

Spherix is a company that specializes in manufacturing solid aluminosilicate ceramic (ASC) microspheres, which are an average of 3 micron and 100% post-industrial. These microspheres play a crucial role in enhancing the performance of plastics, rubber, paints, and coatings by reducing processing time, improving yield, and lowering product costs across various polymer products and components. The company's microspheres offer unique mechanical benefits, providing increased dispersion, enhanced opacity, and improved flow characteristics while reducing the total energy required to process. This, in turn, leads to better surface smoothness and edge tear, resulting in more efficient melt mixing. Moreover, Spherix's products facilitate better integration of recyclate, enhancing the performance of off-spec polymers to the level of prime grade, thus promoting sustainability in all polymer systems. At a temperature resistance of up to 1700° F, these environmentally conscious ceramic products are mechanically robust, non-abrasive, and chemically inert, making them suitable for a wide range of applications in the industrial, manufacturing, and sustainability sectors. Spherix's portfolio also includes surface chemistries tailored for optimized polymer compatibility, rheology, and targeted polymer properties. Founded in 2012, Spherix offers innovative solutions for the polymer market and circular economy, positioning itself as a pioneering player in the industry. Although specific details about the company's headquarters and recent investments are not available, its commitment to sustainable and performance-driven solutions makes it a potential target for investment opportunities within the industrial and manufacturing sectors.
