In 2009, Abakan, Inc. acquired a controlling interest in MesoCoat.[2]

In 2015, Abakan, Inc. acquired 100% of MesoCoat, Inc.
Mesocoat was put into receivership in 2015 by U.S. Federal Court Judge Denise Cote of the Southern District of New York. Judge Cote appointed Robert W. Seiden as Receiver who steered the company to settlement of a dispute with its creditors and resolved a litigation.[4]
