• TCHP is Tough-Coated Hard Powder nano-scale engineered material that offers extreme
combinations of desired properties, including:
• High toughness
• Hot hardness
• Abrasive wear resistance
• Chemical resistance
• Low friction coefficient
• Low weight
Conventional materials are either hard or tough…..but not both.
EternAloy® TCHP solves that critical challenge.
• TCHP is formed by uniformly applying a very tough outer shell and strong matrix binder
coating to a hard core particle…..at an extremely small scale never before possible.
Result: As a surface coating or a solid body shape, TCHP has contact face hardness near
that of the core particle and toughness equal to or better than the matrix binder
over a very wide range of operating temperatures!

The Allomet Customer
Value Proposition
We utilize a flexible, proprietary,
globally-patented powdered metal
processing technology
to carefully coat 2-50 micron-sized
hard core particles of any shape
with 50-500 nanometer-thin tough coatings
to create
EternAloy® TCHP
that possesses
extreme combined
hardness and toughness
for high-value use
as a surface coating
or formation into a solid body shape
like conventional materials
to provide
unsurpassed levels of wear-resistance
over a very wide temperature range for
high-value productivity, reliability,
efficiency, and safety applications.
