Exsor Named Exclusive Distributor for NanoInk in Brazil

Chicago, IL | Posted on September 14th, 2010

NanoInk, Inc.®, a global leader in nanotechnology, announced today that it has reached an agreement with Exsor Com. e Imp. de Equipamentos de Precisão Ltda. to serve as NanoInk's exclusive distributor in Brazil for the company's desktop nanofabrication equipment including the NLP 2000 System, the DPN 5000 System and the NanoProfessor™ Nanoscience Education Program. Founded in 2006, Exsor provides nanotechnology and optics products and equipment to companies and universities in Brazil.

James Hussey, chief executive officer for NanoInk, said, "We are extremely pleased to expand our reach into Brazil with Exsor, which has demonstrated its strong commitment to nanotechnology as a distributor of this rapidly developing technology."

"We are thrilled to be named the authorized distributor for NanoInk in Brazil," said Ute Labitzke, general manager, of Exsor. "We feel there is a tremendous market for NanoInk's nanofabrication equipment which brings sophisticated nanofabrication equipment to the laboratory desktop. Additionally, the NanoProfessor Program offers innovative technology in the area of nanoscience and we look forward to offering this program to community colleges, technical institutes, and undergraduate universities throughout Brazil."

NanoInk's NanoFabrication Systems Division brings sophisticated nanofabrication to the laboratory desktop in an easy to use and affordable setting. NanoInk's NLP 2000 System is a desktop nanofabrication system that allows researchers to rapidly design and create custom engineered and functionalized surfaces, using Dip Pen Nanolithography® (DPN®) to transfer minute amounts of materials over a large, environmentally controlled work area.

The DPN 5000 System is a full-featured, dedicated instrument for versatile nanopatterning of a variety of materials with nanoscale accuracy and precision. With its user-friendly interface, it is possible to easily design complex patterns while also precisely controlling the tip movements during the writing process.

The NanoProfessor Nanoscience Education Program aims to expand hands-on nanotechnology education from the cleanrooms of research-based universities to undergraduate classrooms and is especially well-suited to nanotechnology educational initiatives. The program alternates between classroom lectures and hands-on lab work and includes a 275-page textbook authored by leading nanotechnology experts covering the topics of Nanotechnology Basics, NanoPhysics, NanoChemistry, NanoBiology and Environmental, Health, and Safety perspectives on nanotechnology.
