QuantumSphere Names Senior Scientist
Santa Ana, CA | October 17, 2005
QuantumSphere, Inc., the leading
manufacturer of metallic nanopowders for applications in aerospace, defense,
energy and other markets demanding advanced material applications, announced
it has named Benjamin Mork, Ph.D. as Senior Scientist and Technical Liaison
to address the robust partner and customer demand for QuantumSphere’s
products. Dr. Mork will collaborate between QuantumSphere’s current and
potential customers and partners to identify their specific business and
technical challenges. As a result, QuantumSphere will accelerate its
commercialization initiatives by seamlessly and rapidly delivering and
integrating QuantumSphere’s products and solutions in the market. Dr. Mork’s
extensive on-site field deployments will also provide critical insight on
industry-specific problems shared by other companies, thereby enabling
QuantumSphere to understand, proactively respond to and deliver new,
revenue-generating products to market. This news follows a previous
announcement that QuantumSphere opened a large, new manufacturing facility
as a direct result of customer demand from multinational corporations,
government agencies, and other major industrial partners. QuantumSphere is
the only supplier of the world’s highest quality nano nickel/cobalt alloy
and other magnetic, conductive and catalytic metallic nanopowders, including
QSI-nano™ nickel (n-Ni), QSI-nano™ silver, QSI-nano™ copper, and other
proprietary alloys. These materials will replace platinum as the main
catalyst in a variety of fuel cells and other membrane electrode assemblies
and provide a renewable source of power.

Liaison, QuantumSphere, Inc. “I fully expect to compliment QuantumSphere’s
team of industry veterans as the firm continues to grow as a global
manufacturer and provider of nano-enabled products,” Dr. Mork added.
Dr. Mork has over eight years of research experience in inorganic chemistry,
including organometallic synthesis, main group chemistry, and heterogeneous
catalysis. Prior to QuantumSphere, Dr. Mork served as Staff Scientist at
Symyx Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: SMMX) where he worked on petrochemical
research and high-throughput experimentation technology. The focus of this
work was to discover and develop selective heterogeneous catalysts for
gas-phase partial oxidation of hydrocarbons. Dr. Mork received his B.S. in
Chemistry from the University of California, Davis, and his Ph.D. in
chemistry from the University of California, Berkeley.
