2 3 GRAPHENE NANOTUBES
4 5 GRAPHENE NANOTUBES TUBALL™ GRAPHENE NANOTUBES Human existence is shaped by the materials we use. More than 70% of all basic materials can be improved by introducing a universal additive: single wall Diameter carbon nanotubes. These tiny tubes provide us with a rare opportunity to create nanoaugmented materials that have extraordinary properties. 1.6±0.4 nm
Length >5 μm
Single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) should be referred to as graphene nanotubes (GNTs) because each nanotube is an extremely thin rolled-up sheet of graphene. The superiority of graphene nanotubes is due to their exceptional properties, such as superior conductivity, high temperature resistance, strength and flexibility.
6 7 GRAPHENE NANOTUBES GRAPHENE NANOTUBES
TUBALL™ HOW IT WORKS While the huge potential of GNTs has been recognised for many TUBALL™ provides significant improvements in material properties years, until recently their wide application in industry was not upon the addition of ultra-low loadings – starting from only 0.01%. possible because of an absence of technology for their mass production, their high price, and a lack of methods for introducing them into materials. TUBALL™ nanotubes are the first GNTs to be available for commercial applications in a wide range of industries. OCSiAl’s breakthrough yet low-cost mass-production technology has made the widespread use of nanotubes economically viable while still preserving their high quality.
FEATURES • Best price-to-performance ratio compared with similar products Microparticles Nanofibers GNTs • Maintains color, elasticity, durability and other key properties • Versatile for an extremely wide range of applications The same concentration of particles (~0.1%) in the same volume. • High-quality nanotubes (G/D ratio >90) • Benefits start from ultra-low concentrations Unlike conventional additives such as multi wall carbon nanotubes, carbon fibers, • Adds uniform, permanent and stable electrical conductivity and most types of carbon black that unevenly disperse in a material’s matrix, • Enhances mechanical properties of materials GNTs create a 3D uniform reinforced and conductive network.*

TUBALL™ BATT
TUBALL™ BATT is a ready-to-use dispersion designed to easily incorporate TUBALL™ into electrode formulations during the battery manufacturing process.
TUBALL™ BATT provides a complete or partial substitute for carbon black in battery electrodes and can replace several percent of carbon black with 0.03–0.1% of TUBALL™.
TUBALL™ forms conductive 3D networks between active material particles at very low concentrations. The nanotubes reinforce the electrode structure and improve its mechanical stability during cycling. TUBALL™ improves adhesion by establishing strong ties between the particles, reducing the amount of binder required.
