Graphene nanotube solutions for high performance composites and coatings are entering the canadian and Mexican markets

Canadian company Arya Chem and Mexican companies Kathion Chemie De Mexico and NASEDA (Nacional de Servicios Dargue) plan to launch concentrates and suspensions based on graphene nanotubes to provide a new range of properties of liquid coatings and resin-based composites. These products feature the only form of graphene available to industry today.

Known for producing high-quality products at affordable prices and delivering them throughout the North American region, Mexico and Canada are always looking for new solutions to modernize materials, giving them new properties that were previously impossible.

"These markets demonstrate full readiness for innovative solutions based on graphene nanotubes for thermosetting materials such as special industrial coatings, primers, etc. We have signed new distribution agreements with Arya Chem, NASEDA and Kathion, creating a strong local supply chain for graphene nanotube solutions in North America, " he saidSergey Zasukhin, Director of business development in Canada, Mexico, Central and South America at OCSiAl, The world's largest manufacturer of graphene nanotubes (single-wall carbon nanotubes).

One of the driving forces of composite and coating manufacturers is the automotive industry, along with other industries.

"The automotive industry places high demands on technologically complex components and new materials. The tuball™ nanotubes produced by OCSiAl allow our customers to obtain a full range of properties: the required level of conductivity combined with preserved or even improved mechanical characteristics, as well as a wide color palette for the final product. We believe that this is a conductive additive with the best value for money, " said Francisco Gonzalez, managing Director of NASEDA. The company obtained the rights to distribute solutions based on graphene nanotubes in thermosetting materials in southern and Central Mexico.

Nacional de Servicios Dargue will distribute graphene nanotube solutions for liquid coatings in Northern Mexico.

"We see that more and more industries are welcoming the use of graphene nanotubes. The transformation of these nanotubes from the laboratory to industrial materials fueled by the ability, ultimately, to make nanotubes available for the global industry, said Juan Alonso Escobedo, managing Director of the company Kathion Chemie De Mexico. - Concentrates on the nanotubes that we produced on the market, decide the standard of the key challenges associated with nanomaterials, as the problem of dispersion, a high price for the properties that they impart, and consistency of quality from batch to batch".

Currently, TUBALL™ graphene nanotubes are sold in more than 45 countries. Nanotube-based supercenters are already being used to produce high-performance materials for the automotive, aerospace, oil and gas, construction, electronics, printing, and other industries.

OCSiAl

The world's largest manufacturer of graphene nanotubes, the only company that owns a scalable technology for their industrial synthesis. Graphene nanotubes, or single-wall carbon nanotubes, are rolled-up planes of graphene. They have unique properties - high electrical and thermal conductivity, strength, length-to-diameter ratio. When a material is added to the matrix, graphene nanotubes create a three-dimensional network that gives the materials conductive and reinforcing properties. Produces nanotubes OCSiAl under the brand of TUBALL™.

Novosibirsk is home to the company's production facilities and research base, as well as the center for prototyping materials and technologies based on graphene nanotubes-TUBALL CENTER. In 2019, the second TUBALL CENTER was opened in Shanghai (China). The third TUBALL CENTER is planned to open in Luxembourg.

OCSiAl has regional offices in Europe, the United States, Korea, China (Shenzhen, Shanghai), Hong Kong and Russia, and representative offices in Mexico, Israel, Japan, India, Australia, Germany and Malaysia. In addition to its own offices and representative offices, OCSiAl has partners and distributors in 45 countries.

OCSiAl employs more than 450 employees from 16 countries. The company's research Department employs more than 100 scientists.
