TUBALL™ MATRIX 603
Tuball™ Matrix 603 is a single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) in rubbers is based on creating an additional 3D network, embedded into the rubber matrix. Even low dosages have the effect of toughening the polymer, improving cohesion strength and fatigue properties, reducing hysteresis losses, and adding electrical conductivity. TUBALL™ MATRIX 603 is a series of industrial modifiers based on TUBALL™ SWCNTs and oil plasticisers. TUBALL™ MATRIX 603 for rubber products is a versatile masterbatch designed to enhance the physical and mechanical properties of rubbers and to contribute to the required electrical conductivity properties. The versatility of the product lies in its potential to be utilized in blends of other rubber and filler products without having to adjust the formulation or technological process. TUBALL™ MATRIX 603 for rubber products is an oil that contains up to 10 wt.% of TUBALL™ SWCNTs.
