TUBALL™ graphene nanotubes are applied via easy-to-use TUBALL™ MATRIX, which is a line of additives based on polymer-carriers and pre-dispersed TUBALL™ graphene nanotubes.

Choose the TUBALL™ MATRIX product based on the carrier medium that suits your formulation:

Target system	Vinyl ester and polyester	Epoxy
Additive carrier	Plasticizer + stabilizing agent	Surfactant
	Triethylene glycol dimethacrylate + ammonium salt of polyolefin-based derivatives	Ethoxylated alcohol
Product

Easy to apply

TUBALL™ MATRIX anti-static masterbatches can be processed with standard equipment that is widely used in the coatings industry:

Other benefits provided by TUBALL™ nanotubes for thermoset fiberglass composites:

• Limited impact on viscosity
• Easy to apply and the low dosage makes the logistics less complex and more efficient
• Conductivity without insulation “hot spots”

Anti-static filament-winding applications:

Simplified production process

Compared with carbon veil or roving, TUBALL™ nanotubes require lower labor costs and allow conductive pipes and tanks to be produced using the same process as for non-conductive applications. There are thus additional cost savings for producers.
