Researchers confirm
exceptional capability of carbon-based additives to significantly enhance material properties,
but, as the authors admit: "There are many commercialization challenges in moving beyond the lab", fortunately that's where we come into play: "One promising nanotechnology product is offered by OCSiAl".
Test results for composites made with carbon nanotube carboxylic acid (CNT-COOH) and few layered graphene carboxylic acid (FLG-COOH) show that adding nanomaterials increases compression strength 13 percent vs. normalized properties and boosts CAI by 50 percent. SOURCE: Cardiff University.
