Ferrofluid was developed and synthesized under NASA research
program for outer space development projects in the 1960’s. Ferrofluid is conceived
as a novel answer to the problems of Zero gravity in outer space application.
“Is it possible to develop magnetic controllable liquid fuel by mixing iron
particles into fuel?” The answer was an introduction of this new class of material,
Ferrofluid, to the world of High-Technology.
It have since commercialized, and Ferrotec Corporation has
for the past 25 years, offer an extensive range of Ferrofluids. With R&D and
production facilities in both the US and Japan, together with 12 sales offices
and distributors worldwide, our company is well placed to serve your global
