Elastomer masterbatches
Graphistrength® elastomer masterbatches are available today for fluoroelastomer, nitrile, EPDM and polybutadiene rubber matrices.
Graphistrength® elastomer masterbatches contain from 17 to 40 wt% of multi-wall carbon nanotubes.
Final compounds are generally formulated in the range of 1 to 5 wt% of multi-wall carbon nanotubes depending on the targeted performances.
On the process side, it is possible to introduce the Graphistrength® elastomer masterbatches using common mixing equipment with conventional handling safety precautious.
