Motherson Partners NTU Singapore on Magnetic Curing Tech
Samvardhana Motherson International's Singapore subsidiary, MSSL (S) Pte Ltd, has partnered with Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) to advance Spinheat, a magnetic induction technology for curing industrial coatings. This technology uses magnetic nanoparticles to cure coatings in minutes with significantly less energy than conventional methods. The collaboration aims to industrialize Spinheat for real-world applications, including automotive and aerospace components, potentially reducing energy consumption and CO2 emissions. Early results show comparable bonding strength to traditional methods in a fraction of the time. Motherson brings manufacturing expertise, while NTU provides material science knowledge.
