ATSP Innovations was formed in 2010 and has developed a new family of polymers (Aromatic Thermosetting Polyesters, i.e. ATSP) for coating applications experiencing demanding tribological conditions with severe thermal and environmental requirements. ATSP-based coatings evidence the lowest rates of wear of any known polymeric resin including PEEK, polyamideimides, and polyimides and possess unmatched scratch resistance. As well, ATSP is the highest glass transition powder coating on the market today.ATSP Innovations won a NSF Phase I and Phase II SBIR award for the commercial development of this coating system and recently a NASA Phase I and Phase II for our Self-Bond adhesive system. ATSP's Self-Bond technology enables rapid (bonding times <5 minutes), low mess, non-tacky high temperature adhesion (28 MPa pulloff strength at 25℃, 4 MPa at 340℃) in your manufacturing process. Self-Bond resins can be deployed via electrostatic powder deposition – allowing adhesive deposition rapidly over broad areas. Filled and pigmented Self-Bond resins can be deployed as color-fast powder coatings and bonded and rebonded as an adhesive any time in the future.ATSP Innovations has also begun marketing machinable sheets and plates based on ATSP in pure and filled grades that demonstrate thermal properties up to 100°C above those of PEEK at prices far below those of Vespel with wear resistance superior to both.ATSP coatings and stock shapes are an outstanding solution to many problems facing industry such as three body wear, corrosion, dimensional stability, light-weighting, elevated temperature performance of bearings, bushings, seals, and valves, as well as non-stick and low coefficient of friction needs.
