OCSiAl is an international nanomaterial producer with operations in USA, UK, Germany, Korea and Russia. Company exploits a unique high-performance method of SWCNT synthesis with literally unlimited output and unrivaled low production expenses. A few months ago OCSiAl successfully launched a next generation production installment with estimated output of 1 ton per year. Company has succeeded in dropping prices to commercially viable levels for the first time, offering nanotubes for sale from $2,000 per kg where the previous price was around $100,000 per kg.

OCSiAl’s top product (brand TUBALL) ‘as produced’ features 75% and more of single wall carbon nanotubes with all the impurities of catalyst particles encapsulated in carbon shells. The content of free metal particles does not exceed 3%. Numerous laboratory and industrial tests proved the TUBALL ability to serve as a universal additive enhancing mechanical strength and the thermal and electrical conductivity of materials, such as composites, polymers, rubbers, metals and many others. Significant improvements in material performance are observed upon the addition of 0.001%-0.1% wt. of TUBALL.

Along with TUBALL, the raw ‘as produced’ SWCNT material, OCSiAl also offers specially purified (up to 99% of SWCNT) and functionalized nanotubes and masterbatches , which can be either custom-made or ready-to-use mixtures for different applications. Current product range includes TUBALL BATT to enhance the cathode material in li-ion batteries, TUBALL TIRER to improve tire properties and TUBALL INK to be used in manufacturing of transparent conductive coatings. OCSiAL welcomes new partners to get in touch via its website.
