고품질의 전도성 폴리아마이드 컴파운드는 자동차 연료탱크, 커넥터, 펌프, 에어 시스템, 석탄 광부를 위한 자급식 자가 구조 장치, 주유기손잡이, 문 손잡이, 다양한 건축 부품 및 ATEX 분야의 ESD 제품 제조 등 정유, 가스, 화학, 전자 산업 등에서 사용됩니다. 또한 나노튜브강화 PA 부품은 자동차 부품의 e-페인팅에도 사용될 수 있습니다.

Benefits provided by TUBALL™ nanotubes for GF-filled PA:

  • Ultra-low dosage starting from just 0.05 wt.% TUBALL™ graphene nanotubes*
  • Maintains good balance of mechanical properties
  • Enables a new combination of GF-filled PA properties in comparison to standard conductive agents 
  • Permanent, stable and uniform electrical resistivity without “hot spots”
  • Stable performance reducing the number of out-of-spec parts
  • Good processability and easy handling
  • Allows production of conductive parts that retain colors

*Dosages may vary depending on the formulation, processing, and products.
