Surmet Corporation

Founded in 1982 On ASimple Business Premise:

“Currently Used Materials Are Not Adequate To Meet The Challenges of Tomorrow’s

Machines and Systems”

We Clearly Understand and Meet The Needs of Customers.

We have total Commitment to Customers’ success We Deliver unique and measurable performance advantage

to customers

We Provide Solutions based on Advanced materials and Cost effective manufacturing process innovations

At Surmet, we are at the Forefront of Advanced Material Science &Technology. We Synthesize, Fabricate and Sell High Performance Specialty Components

Our Legacy Business We developed innovative process and became the leading

Manufacturer of Advanced Electrostatic Clamps to hold Silicon Wafers for Semi conductor Industry. These clamps are still the global standard without competition

We also invented and became the leading supplier of Coated (UHP Silicon) machine Components for Micro-chip Processing Chambers. Contamination control, a constant ongoing concern, is the objective here.

We also invented and developed a process to deposited thick (over one hundred microns thick) Amorphous Silicon surfacing for Space Mirror Applications. This silicon is amenable to single point diamond turning.

Corporate Divestiture

In order to focus on Optical Ceramics development, we executed a successful Corporate Divestiture in 2007

We sold our highly profitable and thriving Semiconductor Division with thirty ex-employees to Publicly traded Entegris Inc.

The divested Business Unit is flourishing with the new

owners and Ours is the most Profitable Division in 2010 & 2011 for the acquirer.

Surmet’s Specialty Optical Ceramics

Surmet’s Specialty Optical Ceramics have Multi Industry Applications Potential, such as Military, Bio-medical, Chemical, Energy & Lighting, Semi-conductor among others.

For lightweight poly crystalline Transparent ceramic Armor applications ALON® is the leading candidate. There are many advantages : Low Cost, High Quality ALON® Powder in tonnage

quantities are synthesized at Surmet. Ultra high purity ALON powder is manufactured in-

house using a robust and cost effective manufacturing process

ALON Spinel

• Tri-Mode Seeker dome requires transmission at 1.06um, 3-5um, RF• Baseline dome is monolithic ALON or Spinel

- Surmet can produce both materials• Some fraction of domes require embedded metallic grids

- Surmet is only company with mature technology to produce gridded domes

JAGM

ALON and Spinel Tri-Mode Seeker Domes for Joint Air to Ground Missile

Tri-Mode Seeker

Surmet’s ALON and Spinel domes have met stringent ppm level homogeneity requirement for JAGM
