3 SINGLE WALL CARBON NANOTUBES

4 5 SINGLE WALL CARBON NANOTUBES TUBALL™ SINGLE WALL CARBON 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

Amount in 1 g 1017 nanotubes

Single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) can also be called graphene nanotubes as they are essentially an extremely thin rolled up sheet of graphene. The prе-eminence of these nanotubes is related to their exceptional properties, such as superior conductivity, high temperature resistance, ultra-low weight, record strength and high flexibility.

TUBALL™ HOW IT WORKS While the huge potential of SWCNTs has been recognised for many TUBALL™ provides significant improvements in material properties years, until recently their wide application in industry was not possible upon the addition of ultra-low loadings – starting from only 0.01%. because of the absence of technology for their mass production, their high price and the lack of methods for introducing them into materials. TUBALL™ nanotubes are the first SWCNTs 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 • High quality of SWCNT (G/D ratio >90); Microparticles Nanofibers SWCNTs • Best price-to-performance ratio compared with analogues; • Gains traction starting from extremely low concentrations; • Adds uniform electrical conductivity; Unlike conventional additives such as multi wall carbon nanotubes, carbon fibers • Enhances mechanical properties of materials; and most types of carbon black that unequally disperse in material’s matrix, • Maintains colour, elasticity and other key properties; SWCNTs create a 3D uniform reinforced and conductive network.* • Versatile for an extremely wide range of applications. The same concentration of particles (~0.1%) in the same volume.

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.
