IntraMicron, Inc. was formed in June 2001 to commercialize the microfibrous materials technology developed by Dr. Bruce Tatarchuk at Auburn University. Microfibrous materials technology is an enabling technology that allows chemical reactions and processes to occur far more efficiently than previously imagined or commercially practiced. IntraMicron has an exclusive, worldwide right and license to practice all available fields of use for this technology.

The products incorporating IntraMicron’s patented technology are manufactured via high-speed, roll-to-roll papermaking and sintering processes. These “microfibrous media” products possess uniquely adaptable physical properties and performance characteristics that form the basis for products that have broad applications across a wide range of markets. Potential market applications for IntraMicron’s media include:

• Air security and air quality;
• Biogrowth accelerators;
• Reusable filters;
• Fuels, chemicals, and electric power;
• High performance batteries; and
• Thermal control materials.

The first market IntraMicron is pursuing is Air Security. The company manufactures unique, microfibrous air assurance systems that protect individuals and structures. IntraMicron is one of only two U.S.-owned, vertically integrated manufacturers of metal fiber based sorbent and filtration media.
