Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes MWCNT
|
|
| Process for the Manufacture of MWCNT
Our catalyst and reaction conditions result in an extremely high quality and high purity product (no other forms of carbon or waxy residues are present).
|
Conductive Polymers
Our manufacturing process yields long (>300 microns) and thin (6 nm) MWCNT tubes suitable for a number of applications including conductive transparent films and spun fibers as well as other high end uses.
|
Composition of Matter
Our facetted MWCNT have a "honey comb" structure. Catalytic Materials LLC has acquired a composition of matter patent in the US, which covers all applications of these materials.

Graphite Nanofibers (GNF)
|
| Catalysts and Catalyst Supports
The morphology of GNF provides a unique electrically conductive surface that enhances the reactivity and selectivity of supported metal catalyst partcles to the maximum. The GNF themselves also function as very active catalysts for a variety of reactions.
|
Lithium Ion Batteries
The layered structure encountered in "platelet" GNF has been found to be an ideal material for lithium intercalation. Moreover, batteries fabricated with GNF electrodes can operate at temperatures as low as 233K.
|
PEM Fuel Cell
Platinum particles supported on GNF exhibit a distinct crystal structure that favors very high activity for use in fuel cell electrodes. In such applications the loading of platinum on the GNF electrode can be substantially reduced compared to that of current systems. Furthermore, the Pt/GNF catalyst is not susceptible to CO poisoning; a phenomemon encountered with traditional systems.

| Unique Architecture
CNC have a structure that consists of flattened rolls of graphite giving the material extraordinary properties for both electronic and catalytic applications.
|
Catalyst Supports
CNC provide a highly conductive surface for the dispersion of metal and metal oxide particles that results in an unprecedented catalytic performance. Ag/CNC gives a superior performance in the production of ethylene oxide via the partial oxidation of ethylene over that of the commercial system.
|
Catalysts
CNC exhibit very high catalytic activity and selectivity (up to 100%) for various reactions including the oxidative hydrogenation of ethyl benzene to styrene.
