Established in 2004, our teams tirelessly apply their many years of experience to ensure that every great invention gets the best opportunity to become a successfully marketed product or process. We work with our partners across diverse markets in the UK and around the world, driving their innovations forward and helping them to reduce the risk and cost associated with product development.
MBRAUN offers special solutions for processing air-sensitive material and components under inert conditions. In recent years, MBRAUN developed complementary products to complete the portfolio in the perovskite application. The most common used materials are organometal halide perovskites like methylammonium lead trihalide (CH3NH3 (Pb,SN)(I,Br)3), produced by a composition of methylammonium Iodine (MAI) and e.g. lead Iodine. These materials are both toxic (e.g. Lead (Pb)) and sensitive to ambient air (oxygen / moisture), moreover they can be corrosive in combination with humidity (e.g. iodine). Therefore safety concept and clean containments are required.
