Graphene nanotubes—the advanced anti-static agent for enhanced functionality

Graphene nanotubes open the door to innovative coating formulations that deliver uniform, permanent electrical conductivity without sacrificing mechanical performance or color flexibility. They enable the creation of high-value coatings that meet demanding technical and aesthetic requirements.


Unlike traditional anti-static agents, graphene nanotubes provide stable conductivity at ultralow dosages, starting from just 0.01 wt.%. This gives producers greater formulation freedom, enhanced safety, and longer-lasting coating performance while helping reduce material consumption and overall CO₂ emissions.

Graphene nanotubes for coatings: conductivity, high performance & aesthetics

Industrial coatings are increasingly evolving toward higher performance, longer service life, and a reduced carbon footprint. Demand is growing for advanced solutions that combine durability, multifunctionality, and sustainability without compromising production efficiency. Graphene nanotubes are emerging as a key enabler of this shift, enabling the development of coatings with new functionalities and enhanced performance that meet demanding industrial requirements. These capabilities support lighter, longer-lasting, and more efficient coating solutions. As a result, graphene nanotubes are becoming a driving force behind the next generation of industrial coatings.
