Graphene nanotubes for anti-static silicone PSA: transparency and stable electrical conductivity

TUBALL™ nanotubes improve the electrical conductivity of silicone PSA without drawbacks in other important properties such as transparency and wet-out performance, and without affecting the coating process.

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

TUBALL™ MATRIX FOR PSA

TUBALL™ graphene nanotubes: Good performance on all key parameters

In contrast to other conductive agents, TUBALL™ graphene nanotubes are a versatile conductive agent offering good performance on all key parameters.

Key benefit 2: Maintained other key properties

Using TUBALL™ MATRIX in combination with PEDOT primer allows the technological performance to be maintained:

• No impact on Pt curing system
• Peel-off strength
• Transparency
• Wet-out performance
