TUBALL™ graphene nanotubes, also known as single wall carbon nanotubes, provide permanent electrical conductivity to polyurethanes while preserving mechanical properties.

TUBALL™ graphene nanotubes are applied via easy-to-use anti-static masterbatches:

TUBALL™ MATRIX concentrates based on polymer carriers and pre-dispersed TUBALL™ graphene nanotubes
TUBALL™-based suspensions: TUBALL™ COAT_E, TUBALL™ LATEX

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

Target system	Solvent-free			Solvent-based			Water-based
Additive carrier	Plasticizer		Surfactant	Plasticizer & stabilizing agent			Water & stabilizing agent
Additive carrier	Fatty carboxylic acid ester derivatives	Fatty carboxylic acid ester derivatives	Ethoxylated alcohol	Fatty acid glycidyl ester + ammonium salt of a polyolefin-based derivative	Alkyl glycidyl ether + ammonium salt of a polyolefin-based derivative	Triethylene glycol dimethacrylate + ammonium salt of polyolefins-based derivative	Water + sodium dodecyl-benzene-sulfonate	Water + anionic surfactant
