APL Engineered Materials, Inc

APL Engineered Materials, Inc. is a leading supplier of high purity and ultra-dry metal halides, amalgams, metals, and other chemicals for research and development, pilot-scale, and commercial manufacturing applications. We are committed to delivering quality materials in a timely manner that works well for your specific needs. Founded in August 1944 by Dr. Scott Anderson in Urbana, Illinois, APL was originally established as the Anderson Physics Laboratory to perform contract research for industrial customers. In the late 1950s, under a grant from the US Atomic Energy Commission, Anderson Physics Laboratory began to purify alkali halides, and our patented process for producing ultra-dry, high purity salts and amalgams was born. Our purified salts were soon being used by lamp companies, increasing the efficiency and life of high-pressure discharge lamps. Today, our client list includes most of the lamp manufacturers in the world. In recent years, we have expanded into the radiation detection market, offering high purity cesium iodide, thallium iodide, lanthanum bromide, cerium bromide, strontium iodide, europium iodide, 6Li salts, and other scintillator raw materials. These materials are used to grow single crystals or make flat panel displays with applications in security and medical imaging. We are also committed to providing key raw materials for other energy markets, including photovoltaics, energy storage, displays, and the nuclear industry.
